Path to external drive docker/mac

[mhostrow]

Hi. Newbie question here.

I’ve installed docker on my mac mini and am running ownCloud. So far so good.

However, I want to enable an external usb drive as local storage.

ownCloud asks for a path to the external drive, but I can’t figure it out. I’ve tried:

/Volumes/drivename
/Volumes/drivename/
/dev/disk1s2
/dev/disk1s2/

None of them work. I’m still getting the red square meaning that ownCloud can’t connect to the disk.

I have verified that the disk is mounted on the mac, formatted and working properly.

Any suggestions! Thanks.

Mount the external drive on your mac, and then go to the Docker icon -> preferences -> file sharing. Add your drive path to that list. Then when you do a docker run -v /path/to/drive:/target myimage it will mount your drive into your container (at /target in that example).
