Locally, I have successfully installed npm@5 via:
$ npm install npm@5 -g
$ npm -v
$ 5.0.0
And locally, I can run the npm setup just fine (it's basically npm i && tsc)
$ npm run setup
updated 102 packages in 3.499s
Yet now I also have a Dockerfile based upon the node:7.10-alpine image which breaks if I try to install npm@5 there.
My Dockerfile looks like this:
FROM node:7.10-alpine
WORKDIR /usr/hive-updater/
ENV LAST_UPDATED=2016-12-08 NPM_CONFIG_LOGLEVEL=warn TERM=xterm PATH="$PATH:/usr/hive-updater/node_modules/.bin"
RUN npm install npm@5 -g && npm -v
COPY ./ ./
RUN npm run setup
CMD ["node"]
This will fail during npm -v with:
module.js:472
throw err;
^
