docker-node

Linux Docker images for Node.js with best practices in mind:

• proper signal-forwarding for su and sudo,
• using unprivileged users for running apps.

Currently supported distributions:

• Debian
• Alpine

Dockerfile

FROM godaddy/node:8.9.4-debian

ENV NODE_ENV=production # or anything else

RUN npm install

# Copy app to source directory
COPY docker/docker-entrypoint.sh /docker-entrypoint.sh
COPY . /app/

CMD ["gosu", "node", "npm", "start"]

Docker-entrypoint.sh
