Node-Gyp Error Docker React App

Hey y'all, I'm trying to build a react app but I'm not able to install node-gyp for some reason. I saw there's responses about using Nix, but I'd rather use Docker. I've tried a bunch of different apk scripts but still no luck. I've also tried using different node versions, any ideas? Dockerfile:

FROM node:lts-alpine3.17 AS builder

# Install dependencies including Python
RUN apk add --no-cache python3 py3-pip make g++ \
    && ln -sf python3 /usr/bin/python \
    && ln -sf pip3 /usr/bin/pip

# set the working directory
WORKDIR /app

# copy the package.json and package-lock.json files
COPY package.json .
COPY package-lock.json .

# install the dependencies
RUN npm ci

# copy the rest of the files
COPY . .

# build the app
RUN npm run build

# set the command to run the app
CMD ["npm", "run", "start"]

FROM node:lts-alpine3.17 AS builder

# Install dependencies including Python
RUN apk add --no-cache python3 py3-pip make g++ \
    && ln -sf python3 /usr/bin/python \
    && ln -sf pip3 /usr/bin/pip

# set the working directory
WORKDIR /app

# copy the package.json and package-lock.json files
COPY package.json .
COPY package-lock.json .

# install the dependencies
RUN npm ci

# copy the rest of the files
COPY . .

# build the app
RUN npm run build

# set the command to run the app
CMD ["npm", "run", "start"]

Solution:

I was able to build it using a full image, as the alpine builds are lightweight: https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/issues/384 It's a workaround but still curious how I'd do this manually through an alpine image...

Brody•4w ago

why does the react app need node-gyp?

rhh4x0ROP•4w ago

Looks like it's coming from a solana wallet adapter, web3 shit.

Brody•4w ago

what is your start script?

rhh4x0ROP•4w ago

NODE_ENV=production node out/index.js

Brody•4w ago

is this some kind of express / frontend jumble?

rhh4x0ROP•4w ago

Yep. It's building fine with just the regular node:20.17 image instead of alpine.

Brody•4w ago

then that seens like a good solution, we don't charge for build or image storage

rhh4x0ROP•4w ago

So, I just got it deployed and works great now. Ok got it, thanks.

Brody•4w ago

no problem!
