-
Install an npm package from a private git repository you have access to (eg.
npm i git+https://github.com/user/private-repo) -
Write up a simple docker file like...
FROM node:12.16.0-alpine WORKDIR /home/node ARG GITHUB_READ_TOKEN ARG NPM_VERSION COPY package.json package-lock.json ./ RUN npm install -g npm@$NPM_VERSION && \ apk add --no-cache --virtual temp-build-deps git && \ echo -e "machine github.com\n login $GITHUB_READ_TOKEN" > ~/.netrc && \ npm install && \ apk del temp-build-deps && \ rm ~/.netrc COPY . . ENTRYPOINT ["npm", "test"] run docker build . --build-arg NPM_VERSION=6.13.6 --build-arg GITHUB_READ_TOKEN=***
Expected Behavior
docker build succeeds like it does for docker build . --build-arg NPM_VERSION=6.10.0 --build-arg GITHUB_READ_TOKEN=***
