How to mount ignite data to host system

I would like to run apache-ignite in docker and I am able to do that. But the problem is whenever I spin the image and creates the tables in ignite it stays there as long as that container is running. If I restart the container or starts the ignite image again I did not get that data. I know whenever we spins the images it always creates the new container. In my case if I want to persist the data then I need to commit and push the container so that next start I will get it.

But is there any way, where I can store ignite data on host system and whenever I start the image it will read/write the data on that location (in short volume mounting).

Can anyone please share there experience or thought with example? Thanks.

I am using this with docker-compose and below is my docker-compose.yml file.

version: "3.7"
services:
  ignite:
    image: apacheignite/ignite
    environment:
      - IGNITE_QUIET=false
    volumes:
      - "./ignite-main.xml:/opt/ignite/apache-ignite/config/default-config.xml"
    ports:
      - 11211:11211
      - 47100:47100
      - 47500:47500
      - 49112:49112

If I run the docker-compose up command then I get the below error.

Recreating ignite-test_ignite_1 ... done

Solution

@Update Hello, After doing lots of RnD I able to solve this issue. Below are the configuration I made 1. docker-compose.yml

version: "3.5"
    services:
      ignite:
        image: apacheignite/ignite
        environment:
          - IGNITE_QUIET=false

        volumes:
          - ignite-persistence-1:/opt/ignite/
          - "./ignite_1.xml:/opt/ignite/apache-ignite/config/default-config.xml"

        ports:
          - 11211:11211
          - 47100:47100
          - 47500:47500
          - 49112:49112

        deploy:
          replicas: 1
          restart_policy:
            condition: on-failure
            delay: 30s
            max_attempts: 10
            window: 180s

    volumes:
      ignite-persistence-1:

I kept docker-compose.yml and ignite_1.xml in same directory and opened the terminal from this directory and executed the below command.

docker-compose up

By using ignite-persistence-1:/opt/ignite/ I was able to persist the data even if I stop or down the docker-compose.

I hope this will help others as well.

Thanks.
