View files in docker container

I created a docker container. I can ssh into the docker container. How can I view files in my docker container with a GUI (specifically the WebStorm IDE)?

I'm running a MAC on OSX Yosemite 10.10.5.

docker run daemon -v /mycodedir:/mydockerdir {libraryname}/{imagename} if you mount your work directory and map it to the directory running files in the container you will be able to edit and see them in Web Storm.

The usual pattern is to mount your source code into the container as a volume. Your IDE can work with the files on your host machine and the processes running in the container can see the files. docs

There might be a way to set up remote file access with WebStorm, but I'd recommend trying the other approach first.
