Accessing files from Docker container in Finder
I'm exploring using Docker for web development on my MacBook. I've set up a couple of containers successfully, but one thing has me completely lost. How do I make the web files accessible through the Finder so can edit in BBEdit & upload to shared hosting?
In case it's relevant, I'm using a 2017 MacBook running Big Sur.
Solution 1:
Mount a volume in the container from a folder on the host.
docker run -v /path/on/host:/path/in/container …
https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#volume-shared-filesystems
The path on the host will be visible in Finder and changes made in one will be reflected in the other.
