mount file (.sql) from minikube/host to deployment (MySQL) - mysql

Question

I'm trying to mount file from the host running minikube cluster with Hyper-V and pass in into MySQL Container with deployment yaml , I tried to add the file to the minikube vm ( with ssh) and then mount it to the deployment with PV and Claim , I tried to mount from the localhost that running the minikube ( my computer ) but still I don't see the file.
Current Configuration is : I have on the Hyper-V VM running minikube folder named data , and inside this folder i Have the file i want to transfer to the container ( pod ) .
PV Yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
name: sqlvolume
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
capacity:
storage: 1Gi
hostPath:
path: /data
claim.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
creationTimestamp: null
labels:
io.kompose.service: sqlvolume
name: sqlvolume
spec:
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 100Mi
status: {}
deployment.yaml (MySQL)
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
annotations:
kompose.cmd: C:\Users\itayb\Desktop\K8S-Statefulset-NodeJs-App-With-MySql\kompose.exe convert

I Don't mind how to achieve that just , I have Hyper-V Minikube running on my computer and I want to transfer file mysql.sql from the host ( or from the PV I created ) to the pod.
how can I achieve that ?

You can try with a hostPath type PersistentVolume
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolume
metadata:
name: pv-volume
spec:
capacity:
storage: 1Gi
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
hostPath:
path: "/data/<file_name>"
PersistentVolumeClaim
apiVersion: v1
kind: PersistentVolumeClaim
metadata:
name: pv-claim
spec:
volumeName: "pv-volume"
accessModes:
- ReadWriteOnce
resources:
requests:
storage: 1Gi
Deployment ( changed pvc name )
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
