Unable to sync files with docker-compose












0















I'm hoping someone is able to help me understand what I am missing here. I am attempting to create files within a container using docker-compose exec however they never show up in the mounted volume and I have no idea why. Details are as follows:



docker-compose.yml



version: '3'

services:

web:
build: .
command: bin/rails s -b 0.0.0.0
ports:
- "3000:3000"
volumes:
- .:/usr/scr/app

redis:
image: redis


Dockerfile



FROM ruby:2.5

RUN apt-get update -yqq && apt-get install -yqq --no-install-recommends
nodejs

COPY Gemfile* /usr/src/app/
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
RUN bundle install

COPY . /usr/src/app

CMD ["bin/rails", "s", "-b", "0.0.0.0"]


Now I would first bring up the containers with docker-compose up -d followed by a second command in which I would attempt to run a rails command to generate a series of files like so docker-compose exec web bin/rails g controller test the output of that command shows the files are generated just fine however they do not show up on my laptop despite mounting / syncing the local directory in the docker-compose.yml file.



Interestingly enough I am able to run the following command and get the correct result with docker run -it -rm -v ${PWD}:/usr/src/app bin/rails g controller test



I have spent far too long trying to figure this out already so I wanted to ask some people far more knowledgeable than me. What am I missing here?

          Looks like you might have a typo:



          volumes:
          - .:/usr/scr/app


          scr vs src
