@JeroenHeier The question sounds a bit like an X-Y problem, but other than that I don't think there is anything wrong with it. — Henry

From my understanding that docket from it’s initial design is to isolate the host from containers. Although this is doable, such as passing in a env variable to the container at startup, it is not a good practice. Try to containerize everything, and use a network and network links instead. [Docker Compose maybe helpful]

If you really need to do so for whatever reason here is a link for reference
