docker-cp's Issues

Error remedy unclear from documentation

Hi there,

With the following action, I'm unclear as to why I'm getting the error "Error response from daemon: Could not find the file /home/pptruser/test.pdf in container "

  run_tests:
    needs: deploy-to-test-host
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest  # You can choose the appropriate runner

    steps:
      - name: Checkout code
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: puppeteer-test
        uses: tj-actions/[email protected]
        id: puppeteer-test
        with:
          files: |
            test/*.js
  
      - name: Copy test output
        uses: tj-actions/docker-cp@v2
        with:
          container: ${{ steps.puppeteer-test.outputs.container-id }}
          source: ${{ steps.puppeteer-test.outputs.home }}/test.pdf
          destination: test.pdf

      - name: Display contents of test.pdf
        run: cat test.pdf 

Output:

It's unclear from the documentation how to remedy?
