To mount a volume or shared directory, use: | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="shell"> | |||
docker run -i -t flightgear/terragear /bin/bash -v <host directory>:<docker directory> | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
where <code><host directory></code> is the directory on your computer that's mounted into the container and <code><docker directory></code> is the directory where the computers directory is mounted in. Then to copy files into the docker container, simply move them into the <code><host directory></code> on the host operating system and you'll find them in the <code><docker directory></code> in the docker container. | |||
