How to mount a smb share to container before run my application

[dameng324]

My application relies on some data via smb share.
So I want to mount a smb share to filesystem in container before run my application.
I have created a aspnet runtime base image with cifs installed.
But how to change the image's entrypoint to mount -t cifs -o username=user,password=password //192.168.1.100/shared /mnt/smbshare && dotnet MyApplication.dll ? Does ContainerAppCommand and ContainerAppCommandArgs will work for me?

or is there any other workaround?

For this scenario I'd suggest using a custom Entrypoint script to handle any of the pre-startup configuration. We have an example of what this looks like here: https://github.com/baronfel/sdk-container-demo/tree/main/src%2Fcustom-entrypoint

In general, you'd use the MSBuild items you mentioned for small adjustments to the applications startup arguments, and if you had specific infrastructure/startup logic of any real size then you'd switch to a custom Entrypoint script.
