COPY

COPY [files...] [destination]

The COPY instruction moves files from your repository to the runner.

Files can be:

• relative (to the layerfile location for sources, and WORKDIR location, or /root if not specified for destination)
• absolute (from the root of the repository for sources, and filesystem root for destination)

​

Examples

• Use COPY . . to copy the directory containing the Layerfile to the current working directory (or /root if WORKDIR has not been used)
• Use COPY package.json yarn.lock ./ to copy those two files to the current directory.
• Use COPY / /root to copy the entire repository to /root in the runner.
