Windows 10 Docker Sitespeed.io error: "$(pwd)" includes invalid characters for a local volume name

Question

I am very new to docker so this may be a simple fix.

I am trying to get an instance of sitespeed.io up and running by following their docs on a Windows 10 machine which has a default install of Docker - not using Windows containers, C is shared.. Install steps: https://www.sitespeed.io/documentation/sitespeed.io/installation/#windows-1

Step 1 works fine.

• C:\\Users\\Vicky> docker pull sitespeedio/sitespeed.io

Step 2 does not.

• C:\\Users\\Vicky> docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox

This results in an error that I am looking for help with. Specifically:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)":/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox
docker: Error response from daemon: create $(pwd): "$(pwd)" includes invalid characters for a local volume name, only "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_.-]" are allowed. If you intended to pass a host directory, use absolute path.
See 'docker run --help'.

So running the command as per suggestion from Tarun: https://stackoverflow.com/users/2830850/tarun-lalwani works.

docker run --rm -v "%cd%":/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io http: //www.yahoo.com -b firefox (Space added to URL so you can see the full string.)

Now it produces the following error...

docker run --rm -v "%cd%":/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.yahoo.com -b firefox

Answer 1

Try use "." instead which means to use the current directory. The updated example then looks like:

docker run --rm -v .:/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.yahoo.com -b firefox

Answer 2

It is because in your present working directory the command is unable to find the folder "sitespeed.io". Run the command like below:

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd)" sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox

And if you are using a windows machine, try doing the below

docker run --rm -v "${pwd}":/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox

Answer 3

Please try below :

C:\\Users\\Vicky> docker run --shm-size=1g --rm -v "$(pwd)":/Users/Vicky sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox

You need to provide the present working directory path in place of sitespeed.io

C:\\Users\\Vicky> docker run --shm-size=1g --rm -v "$(pwd)":/Users/Vicky sitespeedio/sitespeed.io https://www.sitespeed.io -b firefox
