stevepacker/nodejs-supervisor repository overview

⁠NodeJS

This container runs NodeJS on Alpine Linux⁠.

It is also bundled with Node_Supervisor⁠ and Nodemon⁠.
Both are installed globally if you'd like to use them.

A user node is created with UID=1000 to run as an unprivileged user.

⁠NPM Install

During initialization, if file /app/package.json exists, and if /app/node_modules is either empty or not there, this container will automatically run npm install within /app to install all dependencies.

Additionally, if /app/package.json exists, the "start" script will be ran (which defaults to running "node server.js").

You can also override the CMD or provide a different command via CLI.

⁠Volumes

• /app is where your application code should reside.
