This worked for me... probably it will work for you as well

RUN echo 'http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.6/main' >> /etc/apk/repositories
RUN echo 'http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/v3.6/community' >> /etc/apk/repositories

RUN apk update
RUN apk add mongodb=3.4.4-r0

VOLUME ["/data/db"]
WORKDIR /data
EXPOSE 27017

Use /data folder because it is the defult one. Other names will give you error.
