Very helpful article and thanks for taking time to put it together. I had a question about the last docker run command. Shouldn't that include an image name at the end? The version I see currently is:
docker run -d -p 8000:3000 --name my-container --volume $(PWD):/app
But, when I use that in my machine, I get "docker run" requires at least 1 argument. Only way I was able to fix it was by adding the image name at the end.
docker run -d -p 8000:3000 --name my-container --volume "%cd%":/app chrisnoring/node
NOTE: "%cd%" is being used instead of $(PWD) since it's a windows machine
also worth adding that if you are on windows using git bash the path conversion gets messy so that command substituition needs to be escaped like this:
~> docker run -d -p 8000:3000 --name EXAMPLE --volume /$(pwd)/logs:/logs YOUR_IMAGE

For me (in windows git bash), I also had to wrap around with
""to make it work.$ docker run -d -p 8000:3000 --name YOU_NAME --volume /"$(pwd)"/logs:/logs YOUR_IMAGE
