docker: Run command in a new container with bind mounted volumes.

docker

$ docker run --volume ${-path-to-host_path}:${-path-to-container_path} ${image} ${command}

try on your machine

The command "docker run" is used to create and run a container based on a specific image.

Here is the breakdown of the given command:

"--volume" is a flag used to mount a volume from the host machine to the container. It allows data sharing between the host machine and the container.
"${-path-to-host_path}" specifies the path to the directory on the host machine that you want to mount as a volume in the container. You need to replace "${-path-to-host_path}" with the actual path on your host machine.
"${-path-to-container_path}" specifies the path inside the container where the volume should be mounted. Like the previous argument, you need to replace "${-path-to-container_path}" with the desired path inside the container.
"${image}" is the name of the Docker image from which the container will be created.
"${command}" is an optional parameter that allows you to specify a command or script to be executed inside the running container. If not provided, the container will use its default command.

So, in summary, this command creates and runs a container based on the specified image. It also sets up a volume mount that links a directory on the host machine to a specific path inside the container.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
