Development Enviroment for NodeJS via Docker

Readme.md

docker run --rm -it -w="/usr/src/app" -v $PWD/application:/usr/src/app:z --user $(id -u):$(id -g) node bash

Add ports as needed, example:

docker run --rm -it -w="/usr/src/app" -p 8080:8080 -p 3000:3000 -v $PWD/application:/usr/src/app:z --user $(id -u):$(id -g) node bash

Example: Developing Angular Apps with Docker

docker run --rm -it -w="/usr/src/app" -p 4200:4200 -v $PWD/application:/usr/src/app:z --user $(id -u):$(id -g) node bash then create a new project inside the docker terminal npx @angular/cli init

To serve your app, use --host=0.0.0.0. A good way of doing that is updating the package.json scrips sections, such as:

"scripts": {
    "ng": "ng",
    "start": "ng serve --host 0.0.0.0",

then, inside the docker container, run npm start

Open the browser at localhost:4200 and you should be good to go.
