Docker-node: Use alpine:3.10 base for node 12

Created on 2 Oct 2019 · 5Comments · Source: nodejs/docker-node

alpine:3.9 is currently being used as the base for node 12, but it is EOL before node 12 is, so 3.10 should be used as the base

I am working toward supporting multiple versions of Alpine to support that change.

The Python images have moved to that model and I believe it's worked out well, so looking forward to it

I suppose this is happening right now, looks like there are a bunch of newer tags, like:

lts-alpine3.9
lts-alpine3.10
12-alpine3.9
12-alpine3.10

From what I can see node:12-alpine is now using alpine 3.10. In my use case, this was a breaking change since I was depending on some packages that do not support 3.10 right now, the fix was easy tho, just had to use node:12-alpine3.9 instead of node:12-alpine.
