Dockerfile

1# First, specify the base Docker image. You can read more about
2# the available images at https://sdk.apify.com/docs/guides/docker-images
3# You can also use any other image from Docker Hub.
4FROM apify/actor-node:16
5
6# Second, copy just package.json and package-lock.json since those are the only
7# files that affect "npm install" in the next step, to speed up the build.
8COPY package*.json ./
9
10# Install NPM packages, skip optional and development dependencies to
11# keep the image small. Avoid logging too much and print the dependency
12# tree for debugging
13RUN npm --quiet set progress=false \
14 && npm install --only=prod --no-optional \
15 && echo "Installed NPM packages:" \
16 && (npm list || true) \
17 && echo "Node.js version:" \
18 && node --version \
19 && echo "NPM version:" \
20 && npm --version
21
22# Next, copy the remaining files and directories with the source code.
23# Since we do this after NPM install, quick build will be really fast
24# for most source file changes.
25COPY . ./
26
27# Optionally, specify how to launch the source code of your actor.
28# By default, Apify's base Docker images define the CMD instruction
29# that runs the Node.js source code using the command specified
30# in the "scripts.start" section of the package.json file.
31# In short, the instruction looks something like this:
32#
33# CMD npm start
