How to forward volume in WSL?

Question

Docker

Installed docker desktop for windows with wsl 2
I want to create a folder in Windows using the composer

service

docker run -v $PWD:/app composer create-project ... project

, I don’t understand where it installs (it says /app/project). $PWD returns the current path in Windows in the \c\user\ style, I tried to specify .:/app - some kind of error, where instead of .:/app it shows .; c:/app.

How to transfer the current folder in Windows to docker then?

Answer 1

Let's say you are in the folder:
D:\Docker\MyFirstProject
and there are two objects in this folder:
DockerFile [file]
Data [folder]
Pass the relative path:

docker run -v ./data:/mnt/data composer create-project ... project

Inside the docker container, the /mnt/data directory will contain the contents of the d:\docker\myfirstproject\data\ folder from the host.
Those. everything inside this folder will be available inside the docker container.
