node

NodeJS is a platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for easily building fast, scalable network applications. Node.js uses an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model that makes it lightweight and efficient, perfect for data-intensive real-time applications that run across distributed devices.

Usage Notes

Create a Dockerfile in your Node.js app project:

FROM icr.io/ibmz/node:[version]

COPY . /home/node/app
WORKDIR /home/node/app
RUN npm install
EXPOSE # Put the port that your app listens on here.

CMD [ "npm", "start" ]

You can then build and run the Docker image:

docker build -t my-nodejs-app .

docker run -it --rm --name my-running-app my-nodejs-app

Docker run:

If you run the node image using docker run you can use the -e flag to override NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL.

docker run -e NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=info icr.io/ibmz/node:[version] ...

NPM run:

If you are running npm commands you can use --loglevel to control the verbosity of the output.

docker run icr.io/ibmz/node:14.14.0 npm --loglevel=warn ...
