Doesn't work on node:12-alpine docker

[dompedro-jonathborg]

Dockerfile Example:

FROM node:12-alpine

RUN apk add --update --no-cache \
    ca-certificates \
    cairo-dev \
    giflib-dev \
    nss

RUN yarn global add nodemon

I got a not found 404.
Seems like a "musl" problem.

[zbjornson]

If you got a 404 after running yarn global add nodemon, then this is the wrong repository to open an issue in.

If you were trying to install node-canvas, can you post the full output please?

I got a 404 when I install node-canvas. yarn add canvas

Ah, that's because your system is using musl libc. See node-gfx/node-canvas-prebuilt#77 for info on that. Since a musl prebuild isn't available, you'll have to build from source (see https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas#compiling).

Helping some people:

FROM node:12-alpine

RUN apk add --update --no-cache \
    make \
    g++ \
    jpeg-dev \
    cairo-dev \
    giflib-dev \
    pango-dev

CMD [ "node" ]

inside container run npm_config_build_from_source=true yarn add canvas or npm i canvas --build-from-source

It' works! Thank you!

Thanks, you definitely helped.
