I am using Docker 1.7 on MAC OSX and have created a container with an Apache and a WEB application.

I would like to edit JS fonts using Sublime Text 3.

How can I do that ?

You can use the functionality VOLUME for that reason.

Suppose your Dockerfile directory is on ~/Desktop/meu-site and that the Document Root of the Apache (Container) site is on /var/www/html

Do the following:

mkdir src
# copie o código de seu site para este diretório src
docker run -d -v ~/Desktop/meu-site/src:/var/www/html

Now do :

subl -a src

Change any file via Sublime Text and reload the WEB page.

Ready ! You will see your change

  • the specification of the volume in the form ~/Desktop/meu-site/src works due to the fact that the MAC OSX or Linux shell solves the ~ for /Users/usuário-logado or /home/usuário-logado depending on the operating system. I opted to use the ~ for the instruction to be portable.

Volume mapping is the most appropriate way to do this.

First check which location your container uses to read the codes you want to manipulate. Let’s imagine that it is /var/www/.

If your code is in the folder /home/usuario/codigo, the Docker command for mapping is as follows:

# docker -d -v /home/usuario/codigo:/var/www nome_da_imagem

With this, everything you add and/or modify in the folder /home/usuario/codigo from the Docker host, will be automatically modified in the folder /var/www inside the container.

Note, some specific services need the service to restart in case of a change in code, in which case, just drop the container and start again.
