A guide on how to use docker-py with SSH for volumes.

[Ryan-Gordon1]

I have been using the provided features for Docker using SSH transport and it works great for starting up containers and API calls. Currently I am experiencing issues getting some containers working with volume mapping over SSH.
Is there any preferred way to achieve a volume mapping between the remote docker host and the machine docker-py is running on ? My issue in particular is it seems that the filesystems directories are created but the contents of the volume isin't transferred over.

Volumes (bind mounts) don't transfer data from the client machine to the container, it simply mounts a folder from the server Docker is running on into the container. This is regardless of which type of transport you are using.
