docker-webdev's Issues

Data container is superfluous

Based on this answers, persistent data should use data-volumes

    volumes:
      - my-datavolume:/var/lib/mysql
volumes:
  my-datavolume:

Container with different persistent storages

It would be nice to use the same containers with different persistent storages, but following approaches didn't work:

• Using a symbolic link like src -> /DATA/yourapp/src/ and storage -> /DATA/yourapp/storage/
• Using external volumes defined via .env with ARG/ENV

      args:
        VOLUME: ${CODE_VOLUME}/backend # from .env file

ARG VOLUME
ENV VOLUME $VOLUME
RUN echo $VOLUME
COPY /var/www/backend .

Step 13/32 : ENV VOLUME $VOLUME

Removing intermediate container ca0e750133a1

Step 14/32 : RUN echo $VOLUME
 ---> Running in d51dc3439085

Step 15/32 : COPY $VOLUME/backend .

Maybe I missed something ⭕
