ht-docker-node

docker image with nodejs and shipzone.io support

Install

To get started with ht-docker-node, you need to have Docker installed on your machine. You can then pull the desired flavor of the Docker image from the relevant Docker registry.

Example:

docker pull registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:latest

Usage

ht-docker-node offers a variety of Docker image flavors to suit different needs. Below, we'll guide you through different use cases and configurations using these Docker images.

Flavour Overview

  • :lts - Node LTS version, equivalent to :latest
  • :stable - Node stable version
  • :npmci - npmci preinstalled
  • :npmts - npmci + npmts preinstalled
  • :npmpage - npmci + npmts + npmpage preinstalled
  • :mongo - npmci + npmts + mongo

Basic Usage

To start a container with the lts flavour, you can use the following command:

docker run -it --name your_container_name registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:lts

Using npmci

The :npmci flavour includes npmci, a utility for managing Node.js versions and npm installations. Here's an example of how you can use it:

FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmci
RUN npmci install 14.17.0

In this example, npmci installs Node.js version 14.17.0 and sets it as the default.

Custom Dockerfile with npmci and your Node.js App

You can create a custom Dockerfile for your Node.js application using the :npmci flavour:

# Use the ht-docker-node image with npmci
FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmci

# Install a specific Node.js version
RUN npmci install 14.17.0

# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy package.json and package-lock.json
COPY package*.json ./

# Install app dependencies
RUN npm install

# Bundle app source
COPY . .

# Expose port
EXPOSE 8080

# Start the application
CMD ["node", "index.js"]

To build the Docker image:

docker build -t your_app_name .

To run the container:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --name your_container_name your_app_name

Multi-Stage Builds for Production

For a leaner production image, you can use multi-stage builds. Heres an example:

# Stage 1: Build
FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmci as build

RUN npmci install 14.17.0

WORKDIR /usr/src/app

COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install

COPY . .
RUN npm run build

# Stage 2: Production
FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:lts

WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY --from=build /usr/src/app/dist ./

EXPOSE 8080
CMD ["node", "index.js"]

Using with MongoDB (:mongo)

The :mongo flavour contains a MongoDB installation alongside Node.js. Heres how you can utilize it in your Dockerfile:

FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:mongo

# Setup mongo and node environment:
RUN npm install -g mongodb

# Working directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy MongoDB config
COPY mongod.conf /etc/mongod.conf 

# Start MongoDB service
CMD ["mongod", "--config", "/etc/mongod.conf"] && node index.js

Using npmts and npmpage

The :npmts and :npmpage flavours are useful for projects that use TypeScript or require page generation.

Heres an example on how to work with :npmts:

FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmts

# Install necessary TypeScript packages
RUN npm install -g typescript 

# Working directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy package.json and package-lock.json
COPY package*.json ./

# Install dependencies
RUN npm install

# Copy the rest of your files
COPY . .

# Compile TypeScript
RUN npm run build

# Expose port and start the server
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]

Comprehensive Use Case Example

The following example covers multiple aspects including environment variables, volume mounting, and networking.

Dockerfile:

FROM registry.gitlab.com/hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmci

# Set environment variables
ENV NODE_ENV=production
ENV PORT=3000

# Install desired Node.js version
RUN npmci install 16.0.0

# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app

# Copy package.json and package-lock.json
COPY package*.json ./

# Install app dependencies
RUN npm ci

# Bundle app source
COPY . .

# Compile TypeScript
RUN npm run build

# Expose app port
EXPOSE 3000

# Start the application
CMD ["npm", "start"]

Docker-Compose Configuration

If using Docker-Compose, create a docker-compose.yml file:

version: '3.8'

services:
  app:
    image: your_app_name
    build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: Dockerfile
    ports:
      - '3000:3000'
    environment:
      - NODE_ENV=production
    volumes:
      - .:/usr/src/app
      - /usr/src/app/node_modules
    networks:
      - app-network

networks:
  app-network:
    driver: bridge

Running with Docker and Docker-Compose

To build the image:

docker-compose build

To run the services:

docker-compose up

Accessing the Container

docker exec -it your_container_name /bin/sh

Conclusion

By leveraging its different flavours, you can efficiently manage Node.js versions, incorporate MongoDB, and handle TypeScript projects. Whether you are using simple Docker commands or elaborate Docker-Compose configurations, ht-docker-node caters to diverse deployment scenarios.
