Can't copy project to docker container - Laravel (Lumen)

Question

I am new to Docker trying to Dockerize simple lumen app locally.

Dockerfile:

FROM php:8.1 as php

WORKDIR /var/www

COPY ./ /project
COPY . .

COPY --from=composer:2.4.2 /usr/bin/composer /usr/bin/composer

docker-composer.yml:

version: "20.10"
services:
  # PHP Service
  php:
    build:
      context: .
      target: php
      args:
        - APP_ENV=${APP_ENV}
    environment:
      - APP_ENV=${APP_ENV}
      - CONTAINER_ROLE=app
    working_dir: /var/www
    volumes:
      - ./:/var/www
    ports:
      - 8000:8000

  # Libre Office Service
  libreoffice:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/libreoffice:latest
    container_name: libreoffice
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - ./:/var/www
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    restart: unless-stopped

Everything works fine but I can't copy my project to custom directory in libreoffice container.

When I access libreoffice container with docker exec -it libreoffice /bin/bash I can't see project directory here. But in /var/www directory there is all directories that is in my local computer.

You may question why you are trying to copy your project to different directory?

Because I am running following command in libreoffice container:

docker exec libreoffice soffice --headless --invisible --convert-to pdf --outdir "var/www/PhpstormProjects/document-converter/public/tmp" "var/www/PhpstormProjects/document-converter/public/tmp/hi.docx"

But in this commannd I don't want to specify my path like var/www/PhpstormProjects/document-converter/public/tmp.

Because when I upload it to the live server the directory will change and it will not work properly. Means each time I change project path, I will need to change path in code as well.

Please let me know what I am doing wrong or another way I can do it.

/project is declared in the Dockerfile you use for the 'php' service. Has nothing to do with your local setup. Also you copy the same files twice: to /project and to /var/www in the php service. Doesn't really make sense — Mihai

I know. But how can I copy my project to /project folder? In which service I have to do it? As I said I am new to docker so I need exact solution for my issue. — Vüsal Hüseynli

By help of @Mihai I have found that:

COPY in the Dockerfile is related to php service as I defined at the top:

FROM php:8.1 as php

It has nothing to do with libreoffice service. To COPY my project to libreoffice service I need to define volume for it in docker-compose.yml file like:

# Libre Office Service
  libreoffice:
    image: lscr.io/linuxserver/libreoffice:latest
    container_name: libreoffice
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/London
    volumes:
      - ./:/project # You can define any directory you want
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    restart: unless-stopped
