Dockerfile is in /home/user/docker directory

I want to copy all files on host from /app/publish to the same path on docker container

WORKDIR /app
RUN cp /app/publish /app/

But getting

cp: cannot stat '/app/publish/': No such file or directory

I need to copy files outside of build context

Does this answer your question? [Docker COPY from ubuntu absolute path](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47012495/docker-copy-from-ubuntu-absolute-path) – leopal Jul 03 '20 at 10:07
unfortunatelly, no :( i have buch of files and can't specify then individually – overflowed Jul 03 '20 at 10:10
You need to include additional info. At what point do you need the host files to be available? If you need them at runtime just use a volume, in contrast if you need them at build time the link above answers the question. – leopal Jul 03 '20 at 10:14
i need then on build time – overflowed Jul 03 '20 at 10:18
