I have a little application that I want to deploy in a docker container and in this container should also run a json-server on a different port to mock an API. During creation of the container the json-server is installed but when I try to run the server using CMD in the Dockerfile I only get the response that the command json-server is not found.
My Dockerfile looks like this:
FROM node:10-alpine as build-step
RUN mkdir -p /app
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json /app
RUN npm install -g json-server
RUN npm install
COPY . /app
RUN npm run build --prod
# Stage 2
FROM nginx:1.17.1-alpine
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
COPY --from=build-step /app/dist/my-app /usr/share/nginx/html
CMD json-server --watch services/mock-api/db.json --routes services/mock-api/routes.json --port 3000 --host 0.0.0.0
My .dockerignore file should not be relevant but here it is:
.git
.firebase
.editorconfig
/node_modules
/e2e
/docs
.gitignore
*.zip
*.md
Any idea on what I am doing wrong?
Unfortunately ale917k's answer did not work so I had to alter the Dockerfile a bit after more research:
# Stage 1
FROM node:10-alpine as build-step
RUN mkdir -p /app
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json /app
RUN npm install
COPY . /app
RUN npm run build --prod
# Stage 2
FROM ubuntu:16.04
USER root
WORKDIR /home/app
COPY package.json /home/app/package.json
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get -y install curl gnupg
RUN curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_11.x | bash -
RUN apt-get -y install nodejs
RUN apt update
RUN apt-get -y install nginx
RUN npm i -g json-server
COPY nginx.conf /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
COPY --from=build-step /app/dist/my-app/usr/share/nginx/html
CMD json-server --watch /usr/share/nginx/html/assets/mock-api/db.json --routes /usr/share/nginx/html/assets/mock-api/routes.json --no-cors --host 0.0.0.0
Very important to add: -host 0.0.0.0.
