I'm trying to run jupyter console in a Linux docker image, and connect to from the host OS (Windows). To do this, I must specify the used ports so that docker publishes them. I cannot use --network host, since my host OS is Windows (docs). So I must know before hand which ports to publish. I have tried a few approaches, but none of them seem to work:
$ jupyter console --shell=6001 --iopub=6002 --stdin=6003 --control=6004 --hb=6005
Jupyter console 6.4.3

And:
$ jupyter console --generate-config

Any suggestions are welcome. I must say I'm a Jupyter beginner, I'm not even quite sure what is the difference between starting a console and a notebook. My goal is to run a Spyder IDE on Windows but execute the code (via an IPython session) inside the docker container.
Edit 1: I tested this on a different machine, and interestingly the command line arguments seem to work!
$ jupyter console --shell=6001 --iopub=6002 --stdin=6003 --control=6004 --hb=6005

Is this just a bug in the older version of jupyter / ipython?
Edit 2: Using newer Python and Jupyter on Linux doesn't seem to fix this:

I haven't yet figured out a pattern on when the port config is respected and when it isn't. :(
