This is my Dockerfile. When I execute this command docker run --init --rm -P --name node-app node-app-apline. I get this error:
=> ERROR [3/7] RUN mkdir /home/node/code

------
[3/7] RUN mkdir /home/node/code:
------
executor failed running [/bin/sh -c mkdir /home/node/code]: unable to find user node:
no matching entries in passwd file
The thing is.. somehow or the other the RUN mkdir /home/node/code gets executed. Why?
Is this something to do with cache? I don't know.
PS: I'm new to asking questions, please help me if there is something wrong with my question. Also, I'm new to docker too.

I'm trying to turn this nodeJS video game into a docker container:
https://github.com/navignaw/TooManyChefs
But I'm getting "ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE" when I try to access the started docker container:
http://localhost:3000/
I think the issue is my dockerfile:
# pull official base image
FROM node:13.12.0-alpine
# set working directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
ENV PATH /app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install
COPY . ./
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]
Docker commands:
docker build -t hal/chefs .
docker run -p 3000:3000 -d hal/chefs
Docker logs:
docker logs 92928695b528a7ed4059bcc32af1d58a309f855294b48d49c60a2bb977755c4e
> TooManyChefs# start /usr/src/app
> watchify -o js/bundle.js -v -d js/main.js
Can someone please give advice how I can fix or troubleshoot? I really appreciate your help!

change the following line:
ENV PATH /app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
to :
ENV PATH /usr/src/app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
Edit-01:
Also update your npm install command to following:
npm install --no-optional && npm cache clean --force
I have Dockerfile like:
FROM node:10-alpine
RUN mkdir -p /home/node/app/node_modules && chown -R node:node /home/node/app
WORKDIR /home/node/app
COPY package*.json ./
USER node
RUN npm install
COPY --chown=node:node . .
RUN npm run build
I need compiled files on my local drive not in docker container.
VOLUME looks like I need I think, but dunno how to do it, to make the build and share those build files.
can someone help me ? thanks!
Assuming npm run build in your Dockerfile produces a build directory, you can get it locally using a volume indeed
docker build -t <yourcontainername> .
docker run \
-v ${PWD}/build:/home/node/app/build \
-it <yourcontainername>
You can use
docker cp <containerId>:/file/path/within/container /host/path/target
I have issues where gulp is not making any files. It says finished, but no file is being created.
If I log in to my docker instance using:
docker exec -t -i myservice-service /bin/bash
and if I run the gulp command, then it creates it properly
Then all the files defined in the gulpfile.js are created. In other words, public/dist/ is populated with the main.js and other css files.
This is my Dockerfile.
FROM node:9
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/logs
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# GULP Installation
RUN npm install -g gulp
RUN npm install gulp
COPY package*.json /usr/src/app/
COPY .npmrc /usr/src/app/
RUN cd /usr/src/app/ && npm install && npm install -g nodemon
COPY . /usr/src/app
RUN chown -R node:node /usr/src/app && chown -R node:node /usr/src/logs
USER node
EXPOSE 3000
RUN gulp
CMD ["npm", "run-script", "start" ]
And this is my composer file (development):
version: "3"
services:
myservice-service:
build: .
image: myservice-service
container_name: myservice-service
volumes:
- .:/usr/src/app
- /usr/src/app/node_modules
environment:
- NODE_ENV=dev
ports:
- 3000:3000
command: nodemon --delay 2 ./bin/www
I run it as:
docker-compose -f docker-compose.development.yml up --build
When I run it like that, it does not create any files. I get the same output on the screen, when I run the command manually.
I have spent hours trying to make it work, I tried with setting permissions and what not, but it just does not work.
My expectation was to have public/dist/ populated with files.
Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE. It works, but I have doubts:
I manage to make it work by using command inside the composerfile itself.
So in my case:
command: bash -c "gulp && nodemon --delay 2 ./bin/www"
In my reasoning, gulp should be done inside the Dockerfile itself, not on the composer files. But then again, it is out of my scope of knowledge.
The Dockerfile is run at build time and will COPY all the files in your local directory into the container, then run gulp and create any files.
You then mount the local folder over the docker containers file system, pretty much overwriting what was done in the docker file with the original files, as gulp ran on the files in the container, it did not effect the original files so you are undoing the changes.
The solutions are either to do as as you have mentioned in your question (add it to the command in docker-compose.yml or run it via docker-compose exec) or write a custom entrypoint script that will run gulp and then the command, something like:
bin/entrypoint.sh
#!/bin/sh
gulp
exec "$#"
Dockerfile
FROM node:9
COPY bin/entrypoint.sh /entrypoint.sh
RUN chmod 755 /entrypoint.sh
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/logs
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# GULP Installation
RUN npm install -g gulp
RUN npm install gulp
COPY package*.json /usr/src/app/
COPY .npmrc /usr/src/app/
RUN cd /usr/src/app/ && npm install && npm install -g nodemon
COPY . /usr/src/app
RUN chown -R node:node /usr/src/app && chown -R node:node /usr/src/logs
USER node
EXPOSE 3000
ENTRYPOINT ["/entrypoint.sh"]
CMD ["npm", "run-script", "start" ]
This will make your build a little less predictable though as it will run gulp each time the container starts (e.g. after every deployment) if you use the same Dockerfile in dev and production.
I have a working Dockerfile for a node application:
FROM node:8.8
ENV TERM=xterm-color NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=warn PATH="$PATH:/usr/src/app/node_modules/.bin/"
VOLUME ["/logs"]
WORKDIR /tmp/node
ADD package.json yarn.lock .npmrc ./
RUN yarn install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-platform --ignore-engines --quiet
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
ADD . /usr/src/app
RUN mv /tmp/node/* ./ && tsc && webpack
CMD ["node", "/usr/src/app/server"]
I wanted to re-created the caching behavior for the node_modules during build, hence I have updated the Dockerfile for another project to look very similar.
FROM node:9-alpine
WORKDIR /tmp/node
ADD package.json yarn.lock ./
RUN yarn install --frozen-lockfile --ignore-platform --ignore-engines --quiet
WORKDIR /app
ADD . /app/
RUN mv /tmp/node/* ./
EXPOSE 1337
CMD ["yarn", "start"]
Yet for that Dockerfile I get an unexpected error during:
$ docker build .
...
Step 7/9 : RUN mv /tmp/node/* ./
---> Running in 51543827cd89
mv: can't rename '/tmp/node/node_modules': Directory not empty
The command '/bin/sh -c mv /tmp/node/* ./' returned a non-zero code: 1
Why doesn't the mv command work here?
When you run docker build ., the current directory gets passed as its context. It's most likely the case that you have either run the yarn install command on your host already which is why you alrady have a
/app/node_modules
This is why it cannot be moved, as it already exists.
To avoid passing the folder along within the context, you can add:
node_modules/
in your .dockerignore file.
I have just started learning docker-compose and I am using a nodejs image. I want to install gulp to create some tasks and have one of them working on the background.
When I run: docker-compose run --rm -d server gulp watch-less
I get this error: ERROR: oci runtime error: container_linux.go:247: starting container process caused "exec: \"gulp\": executable file not found in $PATH"
Here are my file:
# Dockerfile
FROM node:6.10.2
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY package.json /usr/src/app
RUN npm install --quiet
COPY . /usr/src/app
CMD ["npm", "start"]
# docker-compose.yml
version: "2"
services:
server:
build: .
ports:
- "5000:5000"
volumes:
- ./:/usr/src/app
I also have a .dockerignore to ignore the node_modules folder and the npm-debug.log
EDIT:
When I run docker-compose run --rm server npm install package-name I don't have any problem and the package is installed.
Try adding gulp install in Dockerfile:
# Dockerfile
FROM node:6.10.2
RUN mkdir -p /usr/src/app
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
RUN npm install -g gulp
COPY package.json /usr/src/app
RUN npm install --quiet
COPY . /usr/src/app
CMD ["npm", "start"]
I have found a solution that works but maybe is not the best solution. I have created an script that runs a gulp task on the package.json and if I run:
docker-compose run --rm server npm run gulp_task it works and does what it has to do.
I find that just referencing gulp via
./node_modules/.bin/gulp
instead of directly works fine. ./node_modules/.bin isn't in the path by default. Another option would be to add that dir to the PATH.
