...

Add some options

$ dokku docker-options:add myapp deploy "-v /host/path:/container/path"
$ dokku docker-options:add myapp run "-v /another/container/path"

Check what we added

$ dokku docker-options myapp
Run options:
    --link container_name:alias
    -v /host/path:/container/path
    -v /another/container/path

Remove an option

$ dokku docker-options:remove myapp run "--link container_name:alias"

Advanced Usage (avoid if possible)

In your applications folder (/home/dokku/app_name) create a file called DOCKER_OPTIONS_RUN (or DOCKER_OPTIONS_BUILD or DOCKER_OPTIONS_DEPLOY).

Inside this file list one docker option per line. For example:

--link container_name:alias
-v /host/path:/container/path
-v /another/container/path

The above example will result in the following options being passed to docker during docker run:

--link container_name:alias -v /host/path:/container/path -v /another/container/path

You may also include comments (lines beginning with a #) and blank lines in the DOCKER_OPTIONS file.
