I want my data to be persistent in the Docker container in which I am building a neo4j database. However, the commands I've found don't seem to apply to my situation. In fact, it seems that we should do:
docker run -p 7474:7474 -p 7687:7687 neo4j --volume=$HOME/neo4j/data:/data
But in my case there is no neo4 in $HOME:
bash-5.1$ cd $HOME/
.bash_history .config/ Documents/ .gitkraken/ .gphoto/ .lesshst Music/ Public/ Templates/ .wget-hsts
.cache/ Desktop/ Downloads/ .gnome/ .ipython/ .local/ Pictures/ .ssh/ Videos/
.cert/ .docker/ .gitconfig .gnupg/ .jupyter/ .mozilla/ .pki/ Téléchargements/ .vscode/
So I already have a neo4j image and it works great:
bash-5.1$ docker run -p 7474:7474 -p 7687:7687 neo4j
