You should add git and openssh-client and other packages if you want to the node:alpine to let npm pull the repository

  py-pip \
  build-base \
  git \
  openssh-client \
&& pip install virtualenv \

COPY package.json package.json
COPY src src
COPY .babelrc .babelrc

RUN npm install  
RUN npm run gitlab-build

RUN ls
