Copy files from ftp to docker container

I have my application jar files available in FTP. I am not sure how to copy the file from FTP to tomcat instance running in docker container. I need to pass the FTP credentials to copy the file from FTP. I am new to docker and please provide with any example. Thanks.

If this is a static copy, done once for all containers to use, that means those jars have to be copied in the image, with a COPY directive in the dockerfile.

In that case, it is not good to include any credential in the Dockerfile itself.
It would be best to:

  • wget or curl those jars first from ftp

  • then COPY the local jars to the image

    COPY *.jar <dest>
