Some notes
- You do not see the Mount/Disk setting in Docker when using Windows container instead of Linux container because this is not necessary according to the documentation. However, you have to pass in correct parameter for the volume; for instance, C:\data_in_host:C:\data_in_container or C:/data_in_host:C:/data_in_container instead of C:/data_in_host:/data_in_container . Check the following links for more information: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/virtualization/windowscontainers/manage-containers/container-storage.
- You cannot test with http://localhost:{host_port} on Windows. You will have to use either http://{host_name}:{host_port} or http://{container_ip}:{container_port}. To find out container IP, you can use docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.Networks.nat.IPAddress }}' container_name.
