How to install local library in docker?

Question

Python

When a container is created, dependencies from the pip repository are installed in the virtual environment. One of the libraries was customized locally and to check its performance, you need to use it instead of the Pip lib.
in dockerfile
.

..
....
RUN \
    apk add --no-cache --virtual .build-deps \
        curl \
    && \
    pip install -U -r /home/httpd/app/packages \
...

and the list of dependencies is specified in the packages
file. Is it possible to specify the path to the local library separately in this file so that the docker installer can use it?

Answer 1

Dockerfile

COPY /package_1_src  /path/to/package_1/package_1_src

packages file

package_1 @ file:///path/to/package_1/package_1_src

Answer 2

You need to make a shared folder between the docker and the host, and install from there

Answer 3

pip, by the way, can install from github, for example.
