Running Docker applications from a workspace with projects outside the workspace

Some projects in your Eclipse workspace might be located outside of your workspace. For example, when you import a project from a local GitHub repository, the project is located outside of the workspace.

Before you begin

Ensure that you can run the applications directory from the workspace. For more information, see Running Docker applications directly from a workspace.

About this task

Run Docker applications directly from outside of workspace without special packaging. If you are using Docker on Windows or macOS, the directory that contains your projects must be shared with Docker. See Docker documentation for more information.

Procedure

  1. Add your application to the server.
    Note: If a volume already exists for the directory that contains your application, then the process is complete. If a volume does not already exist, you are prompted to create a new container with the additional volume.
  2. For the action, select Yes.
  3. Click OK to create a new container with the additional volume and publish your application to the server.
