Issue having files go into appdata folder

[entree3000]

So I am not a programmer my programming experience is very basic. I found source code for an app and wanted to use it on unraid. I tweaked the settings to allow for the python file to use a config file for data entry. I make a dockerfile and tested it on the Docker desktop everything works. However when I got it on the unraid app store and installed it the appdata folder is empty. I have no clue what is the issue I've searched everywhere online and compared others dockerfiles to mine to find the issue, but can't.

 

FROM python:3.9-alpine

ADD requirements.txt /
ADD config.ini /
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt

ADD main.py /

VOLUME /config

CMD [ "python3", "./main.py" ]

 

I wrote this code reading a docker tutorial so forgive me if it is completely wrong, but I would love to learn and figure this out any help is greatly appreciated.

I had to link dockerhub to git hub and then I could have my container downloaded on unraid.

this is pretty much what I did:
