I am using Docker to run someone's app. One of the containers is the web app and the sibling container is mysql. I need to dump a table from the DB locally but I'm not sure how to connect to it. I ran docker inspect [container name]
on the mysql container and I see the IP address listed but now what do i do with that?

Try:
docker exec {container} mysqldump {mysqldump option} > dump.sql
Hopefully mysqldump is in the container.
