Docker Build: Copy Local Files Guide

The Docker build command is used to create Docker images. Typically, the Docker build command does not support directly mounting directories. To mount directories when building Docker images, you can use the COPY or ADD instruction in the Dockerfile to copy local files into the image.

For example, you can use the following command in the Dockerfile to copy files from a local directory to the image:

COPY /local/path /target/path

When building an image, Docker will copy files from the local directory to the specified directory in the image, achieving a similar effect to mounting directories.
