⁠How use

The most simple way to try this image is run a simple interactive container.

docker run --rm -it tiogt/node:1.2.0

By default the WORKDIR is defined in the /app folder. And the nobody user is the owner, so you don't need run with privilegies this container.

Insede the containter you can try commons commands like as:

~ $ pwd
/app
~ $ npm -v
6.1.0
~ $ node -v
v10.7.0
~ $

In other words you can create a new project inside this container and install dependencies.

⁠Using with a node project

When we work with a front end project is very common that we use tools like a webpack, eslint or wherever based on javascript/nodejs tool.

So we can share our folder with the front end project and run any task of node/npm.

By example if we has a front end project on the path $HOME/my-app, we can run the follow command to install the dependencies:

docker run -v ~/my-app:/app --rm tiogt/node:1.2.0 npm install

Or if you need add a new dependency you can execute:

docker run -v ~/my-app:/app --rm tiogt/node:1.2.0 npm install --save isjs

⁠How to extend

If you want reuse this image you can extend in a new Dockerfile as a follow:

FROM tiogt/node:1.2.0

⁠Troubleshooting

With docker when you mount a volume like a bind mode if the source folder doesn't exist, docker will create this folder but is you are using GNU/Linux based system the new folder will created with the roots user so we don't have access to this folder inside the container.
