How to solve “Could not find any Python installation to use” with docker node alpine Image when adding bcrypt to package.json?

问题

Before I added bcrypt to my package.json, everything was working fine. Now, I get the error message below.

This is an excerpt of my package.json:

  "dependencies": {
    "bcrypt": "3.0.6",
    "express": "^4.17.1",
    "mongodb": "^3.3.1",
    "nodemailer": "^6.3.0",
    "pm2": "^3.5.1",
    "redis": "^2.8.0",
    "xlsx": "^0.15.0"
  },

This is my dockerfile. I am using the offical node alpine image. I wonder if alpine has phyton already installed.

FROM node:13.5.0-alpine

WORKDIR /usr/app

COPY ./src .

RUN npm install

I get this error message when I run docker-compose:

How can I solve this issue? Do I have to install phyton on alpine or just add the env variable? If so, please tell me how. I have already searched for solutions but no one worked ...

回答1:

Open Powershell with administrator privileges and run this command, then proceed with bcrypt installation

Windows: npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

回答2:

Linux Alpine is very minimalist image. If performance is not a restriction, you may want to consider using the official node image that has all the dependencies you need and just worry about development: https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node So, you can have a Dockerfile like this:

FROM node:10
WORKDIR /usr/app
COPY ./src .
RUN npm install
EXPOSE 3000 # Use here the port you want to expose

回答3:

Add this in you docker file before npm install:

RUN apk add --update python make g++\
   && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*

回答4:

For the sake of completeness: I solved it.

The solution was to replace the dependency "bcrypt" with "bcryptjs".

With bcryptjs there are no errors. Neither with standard node docker images nor node alpine docker images.

回答5:

I have resolved this just by downloading and installing python from https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/
