theclocktwister/gitlab-docker-node repository overview

⁠gitlab.docker.node

Features Docker and Node.js (can be used for GitLab CI/CD with Docker executor)

⁠What is it for?

If you want to:

• build an app using node.js
• package and deploy this app via Docker
• Do all this inside a container

you will need an image like this which comes with node and Docker installed.

⁠Why should I build and package an app INSIDE a container?

If you use GitLab CI/CD, you can build and package your apps directly on a server's system, or use an isolated container. This creates a few benefits:

• No dangerous situations for the build sever
• No need to install build tools
• Can be scaled or multiplied in seconds
