sh: 1: nodemon: not found on Docker compose

Question

I am having serious issues setting up docker. When I run sudo docker-compose up -d and sudo docker-compose logs -f my app is logging sh: 1: nodemon: not found over and over again. The problem is that I don't even have nodemon anymore: / If I run the exact same project with npm start and manually turn on mysql it works.

My dockerfile:

FROM node:latest

# Create app directory
WORKDIR ./

# Install app dependencies
# A wildcard is used to ensure both package.json AND package-lock.json are copied
# where available (npm@5+)
COPY package*.json ./

#WORKDIR /node_modules
RUN npm ci --only=production
RUN npm install

# Bundle app source
COPY . .

EXPOSE 8003
CMD [ "npm", "start" ]

My package.json:

{
  "name": "name",
  "version": "6.4",
  "description": "sdasdsadsad",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1",
    "start": "node --inspect=0.0.0.0 app.js"
  },

    "uglify-js": "^3.14.5",
    "uglifycss": "^0.0.29",
    "util.promisify": "^1.1.1"
  }
}

My docker-compose and package-lock.json also don't contain nodemon anymore...

Answer 1

Delete package lock file and Try using this command to rebuild the container.

sudo docker-compose up -d --build
