MiniO docker container does not show files from local folder-CodePudding

I am trying to create a default bucket in MiniO docker container with my local files uploaded as a default content.

I have written a simple docker-compose file to run Minio client:

version: "2.0"
services:
  minio:
    image: 'bitnami/minio:latest'
    ports:
      - '9000:9000'
      - '9001:9001'
    environment:
      MINIO_ROOT_USER: user
      MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD: password
    volumes:
      - ~/test_data:/data

Inside the local folder test_data, there is a folder named test_bucket that contains 1 text file: question_list.txt

When I login to MiniO console in localhost:9001, I managed to see a default bucket created named test_bucket, but it is empty.

To double-check if the volume is mounted correctly, I looked inside the container with docker exec -it test-minio-1 /bin/bash and I could find the question_list.txt inside /data/test_bucket/.

I don't know why the question_list.txt is not showing up in MiniO console. I have tried to contact the developers in GitHub and it seems this is not possible.

I would like to ask if anyone faces similar issues and has a workaround, as for my actual use case, I will have GBs of local files that need to be used as default content inside the default bucket.

Thank you in advance for your constructive feedback.

You can do it with extra service like this config:

version: "2"
services:
  minio:
    image: minio/minio
    ports:
      - "9000:9000"
    volumes:
      - ./test/.minio/data:/export
      - ./test/.minio/config:/root/.minio
    environment:
      - "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE"
      - "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY"
    command: server /export

  createbuckets:
    image: minio/mc
    depends_on:
      - minio
    volumes:
      - ./my-data:/tmp/data
    entrypoint: >
      /bin/sh -c "
      /usr/bin/mc config host add myminio http://minio:9000 AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY;
      /usr/bin/mc rm -r --force myminio/somebucketname;
      /usr/bin/mc mb myminio/somebucketname;
      /usr/bin/mc policy download myminio/somebucketname;
      /usr/bin/mc cp /tmp/data myminio/somebucketname;
      exit 0;
      "
