I have tried to containerize my python code , this is working, building the docker image, running the container and invoking the python code in my app.py file. next, i want to be able to upload the sample.txt file that my python code reads from the root of the application to process some data, sample.txt in the example below. but this file needs to be updated and i want to be able to update this file and run the container, without building the image. how can i create/mount a directory and put the csv file there and give the path to my python code?
app.py
import pandas as pd
print pd.read_csv('sample.csv')
...
docker file
# Dockerfile
FROM debian:10.3-slim
WORKDIR /app
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y dist-upgrade
RUN apt-get -y install apt-utils \
build-essential \
python3 \
gcc \

python3-pandas
COPY requirements.txt /app/requirements.txt
RUN pip3 install -r requirements.txt
# Copy the python script
COPY modbus_to_influx.py /app/modbus_to_influx.py
CMD ["python3", "app.py"]

pandas

When you docker run
, you can (bind) mount folders/files on the host as folders/files on the container:
docker run \
--interactive --tty --rm \
--volume=/path/to/host/file:/path/to/container/file \
your-container
For example if you had example.csv
on the host's root directory and you want it to be accessible to your Python app in the container in /data
, you would:
docker run \
--interactive --tty --rm \
--volume=/example.csv:/data/example.csv \
your-container
NOTE That the file name must be included in the
host-path
andcontainer-path
elements of--volume=host-path:container-path
permitting you to rename the host's file (example.csv
) to something else on the container too.

Or you can use docker cp [OPTIONS] CONTAINER:SRC_PATH DEST_PATH|-
