Docker-node: node:alpine Broken as of "Update node.js v11.x to v11.1.0 with Yarn v1.12.1" Commit

[bfaulk96]

It seems that with the latest commit (Update node.js v11.x to v11.1.0 with Yarn v1.12.1), the latest version of node:alpine is broken. When trying to run npm install on our angular project using node:alpine, we are getting the following error (it seems to be with node-sass and gyp):

Build failed with error code: 1

Our build worked just yesterday, pulling the latest node:alpine image. Downgrading to node:10.13.0-alpine temporarily fixed our problem

[bfaulk96]

I should note, running node v11.1.0 and npm 6.4.1 locally works great running an npm install on our projects, so we have narrowed it down fully to node:alpine.

Not an issue with the image, node-sass doesn't support Node 11 yet

[bfaulk96]

See my comment above. It works just fine with Node 11 locally, and it worked with node:alpine just yesterday when it used Node 11.0.0 and whatever version of yarn it did. Only today's changes seemed to break things.

[nschonni]

OK, I'm one of the maintainers for node-sass and we don't yet support Node 11 so the message your seeing above in the container is expected as there is no prebuilt binaries. On you local machine you have the full node-gyp build dependencies like python that allow a fallback to a local build. The images don't contain those tools, see https://github.com/nodejs/docker-node/issues/860 about adding them to your image if you want to use Node 11 and node-sass
