Bind and run a Python module with singularity from a remote directory

I need to run a personnal Python module from a singularity container. I usually run it with the following command :

singularity run ./Image/myimage.sif -m mymodule.start

However it's only work if I am in the same folder as 'mymodule'.

Now, I need to run this same module from a remote directory. I therefore bind my 'mymodule' directory :

singularity run --bind ~/Projects/MyModule/:/mnt ./Image/myimage.sif -m mymodule.start

Unfortunately it is binded in the /mnt directory, which means my module cannot be found. The error is

/usr/bin/python3: No module named mymodule.start

How could I make mymodule findable ?

I finally used the follwing command :

singularity run --bind ~/Projects/MyModule/:$HOME ./Image/myimage.sif -m mymodule.start

to mount my project in the home directory and have access to it without changing the directory.

Depends how the paths are specified in module.start but this should work with apptainer:

APPTAINERENV_PREPEND_PATH=$HOME/Projects/MyModule/ --bind ~/Projects/MyModule/:/mnt ./Image/myimage.sif -m mymodule.start
