Run docker commands in a docker container with your current directory mounted into the container

dind.docker-compose.yaml

version: "3.3"
services:
  docker:
    image: docker:20.10.16
    restart: always
    volumes:
      - $PWD:/home/
    environment:
      - DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=
      - DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR=
      - ENV_MODE=local
      - DOCKER_HOST=tcp://daemon:2375
    entrypoint: "/bin/sh -c \"tail -f /dev/null\""
    depends_on:
      - daemon
  daemon:
    image: docker:20.10.16-dind
    privileged: true
    environment:
      - DOCKER_TLS_VERIFY=
      - DOCKER_TLS_CERTDIR=

You may want to add the following function to your .bashrc or .zshrc file:

  function run_in_docker() {
          docker-compose -f $PATH_TO_FILE/dind.docker-compose.yaml up -d
  }

Where you need to replace $PATH_TO_FILE with the actual path where the dind.docker-compose.yaml file is stored. Once this is done, you can run the follow the steps below to open your current working directory inside a docker container for debugging:

1. run_in_docker
2. docker ps -a.
   Note the name of the docker container.
3. docker exec -it <container_name> sh
