Docker image with R2modman - more streamlined process? (self.valheim)

Is there anyway to have R2modman run along side a Valheim docker container? Trying to find a way to make it easier for folks that are not as technical to run their mods on a server.
The situation currently is running docker on Windows and I have them running R2modman on windows and exporting/copying the r2modman profile data directory to the data directory used in the docker container and then restarting the docker container.
I had the user try to change the profile directory over to the docker data directory to directly write to it, but it gave an error that there was data already there, so I thought that might be a bad idea.

I can't help with your question but I'm wondering what are the benefits of running it in a docker container, how does it make it easier for users?

I love your point…: the beauty of a container is the fact that you can’t run it anywhere.

Best way I can explain it is compute of your node capabilities
