COPY files - next to Dockerfile - don't work and block docker build

Question

I'm trying to building a docker container with mlflow server inside, with poetry toml file for dependency.(the two toml are exactly the same, it was just a way to try to figure out)
tree:

├── docker-entrypoint.sh
├── Dockerfile
├── files
│ └── pyproject.toml
├── git.sh
├── pyproject.toml
└── README.md

as you can see, my toml file is next to Dockerfile COPY pyproject.toml ./ don't work nevertheless

Dockerfile

EXPOSE $SERVER_PORT

VOLUME ["${FILE_STORE}", "${ARTIFACT_STORE}"]

CMD ["./docker-entrypoint.sh"]

the build command :

docker build - < Dockerfile

I get this error :

Try docker build -t test .

instead of docker build - < Dockerfile
