How to pass arguments to Shell Script through docker run

bash shell docker command-line-arguments

with this script in file.sh

#!/bin/bashecho Your container args are: "$@"

and this Dockerfile

FROM ubuntu:14.04COPY ./file.sh /ENTRYPOINT ["/file.sh"]

you should be able to:

% docker build -t test .% docker run test hello worldYour container args are: hello world

bash shell docker command-line-arguments

Use the same file.sh

#!/bin/bashecho $1

Build the image using the existing Dockerfile:

docker build -t test .

Run the image with arguments abc or xyz or something else.

docker run -ti --rm test /file.sh abcdocker run -ti --rm test /file.sh xyz

bash shell docker command-line-arguments

With Docker, the proper way to pass this sort of information is through environment variables.

So with the same Dockerfile, change the script to

#!/bin/bashecho $FOO

After building, use the following docker command:

docker run -e FOO="hello world!" test
