Terraform as Docker returns error on plan

I am trying Terraform as Docker. I have pulled the image from:

Docker Repo Image

I have simple main.tf:

output "greetings" { value = "Hello World!" }

provider "random" {}

Now, in the same dir as main.tf I run:

docker run -i -t hashicorp/terraform:light plan main.tf

as it is suggested on that page. But I get the error:

stat main.tf: no such file or directory

So I guess that I need to create a Dockerfile to create an image including the main.tf, right?

thanks.

First, you need to make sure that your terraform files are available inside the container. This can be done using volumes as it is shown below 

$>  docker run -it -v $PWD:/tr-scripts  hashicorp/terraform:light plan /tr-scripts/

second, you may need to run init before the plan

dockerfile example 

From hashicorp/terraform:light
COPY ./TR-SCRIPT /tr-scripts

RUN terraform init /tr-scripts
