Bind Mount Command not working

[Jameshgreen95]

Running the command:

docker run -dp 3000:3000 \ -w /app -v "$(pwd):/app" \ node:12-alpine \ sh -c "yarn install && yarn run dev"

Yields the response:

docker: Error response from daemon: the working directory 'C:/Program Files/Git/app' is invalid, it needs to be an absolute path.

I don't really understand why it is defaulting to the Git directory.

When running the pwd command it does return the correct directory. Any ideas?

Hey, try this:

docker run -dp 3000:3000 -w /app -v "/$(pwd):/app" node:12-alpine sh -c "cd /$(pwd) && yarn install && yarn run dev"

I am not sure Windows knows about he pwd command. I used %cd% instead. (Windows 10 Home.)

I tried both solutions with %cd% but that didn't fix the issue for me.
I have git bash, I think that's the reason it tries to search from that location.

Edit: fixed the command
