    Binding the Host Trace directory to the Guest Trace directory

    To get Prefix to read the traces from your app in docker, you need to use bind-mounts as mentioned in this article.

    Example

    If the host OS is Linux and you also have a Linux OS in the container, you need to bind /usr/local/stackify/stackify-node-apm to the same path in the Guest OS for Prefix to see the logs.

    Fixed Logging Directories for Node.js traces

    Linux: /usr/local/stackify/stackify-node-apm

    To bind these directories

    We use the --mount argument for the docker run command as follows:
    docker run -it --rm -p 8000:80 \
    --mount type=bind,source="/usr/local/stackify/stackify-node-apm",target=/usr/local/stackify/stackify-node-apm \
    --name node_sample node-apm
