# Using volumes
Volume declaration is done in two parts. First, you have to provide
a list of mountpoints to the `Client().create_container()` method.
```python
c.create_container('busybox', 'ls', volumes=['/mnt/vol1', '/mnt/vol2'])
```
Volume mappings are then declared inside the `Client.start` method like this:
```python
c.start(container_id, binds={
'/home/user1/':
{
'bind': '/mnt/vol2',
'ro': False
},
'/var/www':
{
'bind': '/mnt/vol1',
'ro': True
}
})
```
