Docker Install Packages

[Wuast94]

I want to install packages in my node red docker container. is there any way over the ui to get this done ? 
I need this `libavahi-compat-libdnssd-dev` in my container but don't want to make an extra Dockerfile etc just ford that and all the problems around it with unraid ui end container updates etc.

There is no GUI support fo this.

 

You may be able to install the packages from the command line within the docker container.    The GUI does allow you to open a console session in the container (via the Console option when you click on the container's icon on the Docker tab).    However note that if you go this route such changes get lost if you ever update the container.

and that's the problem .. I lost this when I update the container .. and I don't want to do it every time again when I update or recover server etc.

The only other way will be to produce your own customised container so you control updates - but you indicated that you do not want to do this either so I think you are stuck
