I have a problem with deployment of Wordpress project.
It has two services - MySQL database and WordPress service build from Github repository.
I have created a Dockerfile for a WordPress Service:
FROM wordpress:6.6.1-php8.2
COPY wp-content/ ./wp-content
RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html/wp-content
RUN find /var/www/ -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} \;
RUN find /var/www/ -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;
The problem is that the Docker does not copy wp-content directory to container while deploying to Railway. Why is that? How can I fix this? The wp-content directory is present in github repository.
It works fine on local env.

I've found something in docs: https://docs.railway.app/guides/volumes
*Volume Availability
Volumes are mounted to your service's container when it is started, not during build time.
If you write data to a directory at build time, it will not persist on the volume, even if it writes to the directory to which you have mounted the volume.
Volumes are not mounted as overlays.*
So I need to copy the directory to Docker image from my repository during the build, how can I overcome that?

copy it during runtime

the same way you are doing it during build, just do it during runtime
Could you please show me an example how can I copy wp-content directory from github repository to my volume during runtime?
But that does not satisfy me, because someone might upload an image to the directory and after deployment it will be erased
Since my Docker image run as non root user, I have added a variable RAILWAYRUNUID=0 to my service but application still cannot write to the volume.
