mounting local files to a container

[Alya Gomaa]

The second installation instruction says

"Start a container with your files mounted to the folder /data (docker run -it <image_name> -v /local/folder/with/data:/data /bin/bash)"

this command throws the following error:

docker: Error response from daemon: OCI runtime create failed: container_linux.go:349: starting container process caused "exec: \"-v\": executable file not found in $PATH": unknown.
ERRO[0005] error waiting for container: context canceled 

after a lot of googling i found out that
Anything that is after the image name becomes part of the command that is run in the container

so the above command should be replaced with:

docker run -it --mount type=bind,src=/local/folder/with/data,dst=/data <image_name>
