I am trying to deploy node-red via DO app. But I can't mount a directory like in the tutorial. Can someone help? Haven't found anything useful.

Sorry - so what have you signed up for with DO - a Linux Virtual machine ? or something else ?

So from their (DO) app repository - or using the standard NR images - onto a VM that you have purchased from them ?

It gets pulled directly from the docker hub. The service is just a deployment. I'm not using a VM
