-v=[]: Create a bind mount with: [host-dir]:[container-dir]:[rw|ro].
You must specify an absolute path for `host-dir`. If
`host-dir` is missing from the command, then docker
creates a new volume. If `host-dir` is present but
points to a non-existent directory on the host, Docker will
automatically create this directory and use it as the source of the
bind-mount.

Note that this is not available from a Dockerfile due the portability
and sharing purpose of it. The `host-dir` volumes
are entirely host-dependent and might not work on any other machine.

For example:
sudo docker run -t -i -v /var/logs:/var/host_logs:ro ubuntu bash
# Usage:
# sudo docker run [OPTIONS] -v /(dir. on host):/(dir. in container):(Read-Write or Read-Only) [ARG..]
# Example:
sudo docker run -i -t -v /var/log:/logs_from_host:ro ubuntu bash
The command above mounts the host directory `/var/logs`
into the container with read only permissions as
`/var/host_logs`.
The command above mounts the host directory `/var/log` into the container
with *read only* permissions as `/logs_from_host`.
