Adding config file in docker run command -

this docker command works expected:

docker run -i -t -p 7778:8888 continuumio/miniconda3 /bin/bash -c "/opt/conda/bin/conda install jupyter -y --quiet && mkdir /opt/notebooks && /opt/conda/bin/jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=/opt/notebooks --ip='*' --port=8888 --no-browser --allow-root" 

it starts miniconda python 3 version installed. problem generates random password access jupyter when go ...

http://somesite.com:7778

and there no way change password. way create or update config file jupyter_notebook_config.py found in home directory (sub-folder: ~/.jupyter) how save file on host , mount using -v parameter?

i can manually if follow these 3 steps:

1) login ipython docker container

docker exec -it 6cbc bash 

2) run following command...

jupyter notebook --generate-config 

3) copy config file container using command this...

docker cp ipython_kernel_config.py  6cbc8d829e4a:/.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py 

i looking way merge these 3 steps docker run command.

have tried adding volume mount run command?

something this.

docker run -i -t -v /tmp/.jupyter:/.jupyter/ -p 7778:8888 continuumio/miniconda3 /bin/bash -c "/opt/conda/bin/conda install jupyter -y --quiet && mkdir /opt/notebooks && /opt/conda/bin/jupyter notebook --notebook-dir=/opt/notebooks --ip='*' --port=8888 --no-browser --allow-root" 

this assumes have /tmp/.jupyter directory, , feel free change else.

also, messy command, reason why don't create own image using dockerfile? here rough example, haven't tested typos , syntax errors, idea.

from continuumio/miniconda3 run /opt/conda/bin/conda install jupyter -y --quiet run mkdir /opt/notebooks # copy in custom config  copy ipython_kernel_config.py /.jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py expose 8888 # run notebook cmd ["/opt/conda/bin/jupyter", "notebook", "--notebook-dir=/opt/notebooks", "--ip='*'", "--port=8888", "--no-browser", "--allow-root"] 

to build , run this.

docker build -t myminiconda3 . docker run -it -p 7778:8888 myminiconda3 

you can mount in local files if want.

docker run -it -v `pwd`:/mycode -p 7778:8888 myminiconda3 

and run daemon

docker run -d -v `pwd`:/mycode -p 7778:8888 myminiconda3
