Add a volume to Docker, but exclude a sub-folder

by

Using docker-compose I’m able to use node_modules locally, but ignore it in the docker container using the following syntax in the docker-compose.yml

volumes:
   - './angularApp:/opt/app'
   - /opt/app/node_modules/

So everything in ./angularApp is mapped to /opt/app and then I create another mount volume /opt/app/node_modules/ which is now empty directory – even if in my local machine ./angularApp/node_modules is not empty.
