Hello!
I need a guide on how to migrate data from shared hosting to Docker.
All the guides I can find are about migrating docker containers though!
I am going to use a PaaS - Caprover which sets up everything.
Can I just import my data into the regular filesystem or does the containerisation have sandboxed filesystems?
Thanks!
You can copy files into the docker image via a COPY in the dockerfile or you can mount a volume to share data from the host file system into the docker container at runtime.
