Task definition container command.
Hello I need to have a mount point from a volume in my task definition container. the mount point is /example/ex/1:/port ; My question is, is posible to just copy the files in ~/1 to /port instead of overwriting everything in /port ? The other solution will be to make a "sh, -c, ln -s path:path" but i dont know how correct would that be. Thanks
Mounting won't overwrite the files in .../1 but shadow them (i.e., they still exist and consume disk space), while there are ways to access "shadowed files", it will be simpler to mount to a different directory, and copy/link to the .../1 directory.
Note that it might be useful to separate the copying a script to the container's entrypoint, which will keep the command cleaner.
