Copying files from Docker container to host

Question

I\'m thinking of using Docker to build my dependencies on a Continuous Integration (CI) server, so that I don\'t have to install all the runtimes and libraries on the agents

Answer 1

If you don't have a running container, just an image, and assuming you want to copy just a text file, you could do something like this:

docker run the-image cat path/to/container/file.txt > path/to/host/file.txt
