External settings file about meteor-base HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi, afaik, you cannot do that. You have to use a docker.env file instead.

settings.json file is mainly used for localhost and deploy to Galaxy Hosting.

from meteor-base.

You can mount it as a “volume”, similar to how you see examples online of an Nginx config file being volume-mounted into an Nginx container. For example:

docker run -v /host/path/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro -d nginx

In your case, edit the docker-compose.yml to add a volume with the path to your settings.json file, and then use that “volume” in the Meteor app container, mapped to where the app is expecting the file to be.
