Typescript Project Dockerfile
There are tons of other examples of Dockerfile to build a Typescript project. A lot of them are not using the multi-stage build, this is a shame in my opinion.
Here are two examples using yarn or npm to make a production-ready, Typescript project docker image:
Using Yarn
Dockerfile
FROM node as builder
# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# Install app dependencies
COPY package.json yarn.lock ./
RUN yarn install --frozen-lockfile
COPY . .
RUN yarn build
FROM node:slim
# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# Install app dependencies
COPY package.json yarn.lock ./
RUN yarn install --production --frozen-lockfile
COPY /usr/src/app/dist ./dist
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "node", "dist/index.js" ]
Using npm
Dockerfile
FROM node as builder
# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# Install app dependencies
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
FROM node:slim
# Create app directory
WORKDIR /usr/src/app
# Install app dependencies
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci --production
COPY /usr/src/app/dist ./dist
EXPOSE 8080
CMD [ "node", "dist/index.js" ]
