Installation instructions did not work in docker container

[johnbarney]

Example of my Dockerfile:

FROM ghost:alpine

RUN cd current;                                   \
    npm install ghost-storage-adapter-s3;         \
    mkdir -p ./content/adapters/storage;          \
    cp -r ./node_modules/ghost-storage-adapter-s3 \
          ./content/adapters/storage/s3;          \
    rm -f /var/lib/ghost/content/data/ghost.db;   \
    rm -f /var/lib/ghost/configuration.production.json

ENV server__host 0.0.0.0

This Dockerfile works as long as I do not try to activate the s3 storage module.

Stacktrace when I do invoke the s3 storage module:

Example Dockerfile that I created that works using S3 storage adapter:

FROM ghost:alpine

RUN cd current;                                   \
    npm install ghost-storage-adapter-s3;         \
    mkdir -p ./content/adapters/storage;          \
    cp -r ./node_modules/ghost-storage-adapter-s3 \
          ./core/server/adapters/storage/s3;          \
    rm -f /var/lib/ghost/content/data/ghost.db;   \
    rm -f /var/lib/ghost/configuration.production.json

ENV server__host 0.0.0.0

I'm positive this is something I am doing wrong so I'd like to get some feedback. I'm not blocked as I got it working.

Thanks

It was indeed an issue on my end. The Docker container does some interesting things with the content folder. Using my workaround seems to be the only sane thing to do for the moment. Closing thread.
