Docker Hub:

hosttoday/ht-docker-node:npmci
has LTS node version and npmci preinstalled.
hosttoday/ht-docker-dbase
based on docker:git, can be used to build docker images in conjunction with docker:dind

npmci can be called from commandline and handle a lot of tasks durug ci:

# Handle node versions
npmci node install stable # will install latest stable node version and update PATH for node and npm
npmci node install lts # will install latest LTS node version and update PATH for node and npm versions
npmci node install legacy # will install latest legacy node version and update PATH for node and npm
npmci node install x.x.x #  will install any specific node version.

# Handle npm and yarn tasks
npmcu npm login # logs in npm using the auth key provided at env var "NPMCI_TOKEN_NPM"
npmci npm install  # installs dependencies using npm or yarn dependending on availablity
npmci npm test # tests the package
npmci npm publish # builds a package and publishes it

# handle docker tasks
npmci docker prepare
## npmci test docker will look at all Dockerfiles and look for according tags on GitLab container registry


# prepare tools
npmci prepare npm # will look for $NPMCI_TOKEN_NPM env var and create .npmrc, so npm is authenticated
npmci prepare docker # will look for $NPMCI_LOGIN_DOCKER in form username|password and authenticate docker
npmci prepare docker-gitlab # will authenticate docker for gitlab container registry

# build containers
npmci docker build # will build containers
## all Dockerfiles named Dockerfile* are picked up.
## specify tags like this Dockerfile_[tag]
## uploads all built images as [username]/[reponame]:[tag]_test to GitLab
## then test in next step with "npmci test docker"

# publish npm module
npmci publish npm # will look vor $NPMCI_TOKEN_NPM env var and push any module in cwd to npm
npmci publish docker

# trigger webhooks
npmci trigger # will look for NPMCI_TRIGGER_1 to NPMCI_TRIGGER_100 in form domain|id|token|ref|name
