Config file for Neo4j Docker Image
They have a dedicated section on their page for that ...
There are 3 ways: via environment variables, mounting a /conf volume and building a new image
The /conf volume is probably the way the OP wants:
To make arbitrary modifications to the Neo4j configuration, provide the container with a /conf volume.
docker run \ --detach \ --publish=7474:7474 --publish=7687:7687 \ --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data \ --volume=$HOME/neo4j/logs:/logs \ --volume=$HOME/neo4j/conf:/conf \ neo4j:3.1Any configuration files in the /conf volume will override files provided by the image. This includes values that may have been set in response to environment variables passed to the container by Docker. So if you want to change one value in a file you must ensure that the rest of the file is complete and correct.
To dump an initial set of configuration files, run the image with the dump-config command.
docker run --rm\ --volume=$HOME/neo4j/conf:/conf \ neo4j:3.1 dump-config
