Default configuration for WordPress Docker Container -

i'm working on project using wordpress api.

this docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3.1'  services:   wordpress:     image: wordpress     volumes:       - ./volumes/wordpress/:/var/www/html     ports:       - 8080:80     environment:       wordpress_db_password: root     depends_on:       - mysql    mysql:     image: mysql:5.7     volumes:       - ./volumes/mysql/:/var/lib/mysql     environment:       mysql_root_password: root    web:     build:       context: .       dockerfile: dockerfile     volumes:       - ./src/:/src     ports:       - 8081:8081     depends_on:       - wordpress 

in order use wordpress api, need configure wordpress container manually going http://localhost:8080/wp-admin , changing settings.

thing is, need make settings changes automatic because everytime remove volume folder in order reset wordpress content, removes settings.

any idea on how can achieve this?

i guess settings configured via wp-admin section stored in database.

if that's case can this:

1. setup first wordpress instance running docker-compose , completing setup steps.
2. stop compose. @ point in mysql volume folder have database structure configured wordpress in it.
3. store contents of folder somewhere.

now, if want create wordpress instance, can edit docker-compose.yml file in order adjust volume binding , make sure initial content of mysql volume contains data got step 3 above.

when start new docker-compose stack it'll start populated database , should have preconfigured wordpress instance.
