Description

I am trying to setup the Find3 MQTT broker to bridge with another one of my MQTT brokers. I have the config file setup the way I need it but every time the Find3 docker container is run it will overwrite the config file with the default contents.

I looked through the Docker file but I am not familiar enough with Docker to figure how to not overwrite the file.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to persist the MQTT config file by mounting a host directory as a volume in Docker. Look for Docker Compose or run command examples that use the v flag to bind mount the config file or directory.
