Docker build fails on the first line about gatsby-docker

[gardner]

This issue is still reproducible and prevents new users from being able to make use of the docker image.

Steps to reproduce:

mytmpdir=$(mktemp -d 2>/dev/null || mktemp -d -t 'devreprogatsby')
cd $mytmpdir

npm i -g gatsby-cli
gatsby new gardner
cd gardner/

cat << EOF > .dockerignore
.cache/
node_modules/
public/
EOF

cat << EOF > Dockerfile
FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby:onbuild as build

FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby
COPY --from=build /app/public /pub
EOF

gatsby build

docker build -t gh-issue-39 .

echo "Be sure to remove the temporary files: "
echo rm -rf $mytmpdir

This results in:

Sending build context to Docker daemon  1.519MB
Step 1/3 : FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby:onbuild as build
# Executing 1 build trigger
ADD failed: stat /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-builder209143335/public: no such file or directory

I am pretty sure the problem is that the onbuild tag on docker hub contains the same image like the latest tag, which it should not. It is supposed to contain the result of https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-docker/blob/master/Dockerfile.onbuild but it does not. Instead both images are a result of https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby-docker/blob/master/Dockerfile which is only supposed to be used for the latest tag.
The issue @shicholas linked (#38) contains the right workarounds for this issue. (Another option is to use the Dockerfile.onbuild from this repo and build it yourself.)

I totally agree with this. My solution was to build the image and host it in docker hub. If someone wants to use it as well, just replace
FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby:onbuild as build
with
FROM masasip/gatsby:onbuild as build

To repleat my steps and host image on your own, create a repo to docker hub and then run locally:

git clone [email protected]:gatsbyjs/gatsby-docker.git
cd gatsby-docker
docker build -t gatsby:onbuild --file Dockerfile.onbuild .
docker login --username=<your-docker-hub-username>
docker tag gatsby:onbuild <your-docker-hub-username>/<your-docker-hub-repo>:onbuild
docker push <your-docker-hub-username>/<your-docker-hub-repo>:onbuild

and replace
FROM gatsbyjs/gatsby:onbuild as build
with
<your-docker-hub-username>/<your-docker-hub-repo>:onbuild

I solved the problem by doing a custom Dockerfile based on nginx image.
My Dockerfile and my nginx config are in this public gist https://gist.github.com/NogaMan/3ae6bd88e8ae063ab6da56bc36659c7d

The files are working 100%

Any news about fixing this bug?

[shicholas]

hmm, I'm not sure what your issue is then. given that this docker image hasn't been updated in a while, I shared a solution (and there are others) on this thread - #38 (comment) hope either solution listed can help

Did you run yarn build before docker build ?

[dimiandre]

I have the exact same problem.
Already did npm run build

Do check the .dockerignore file too.

I also have this issue.

Whn I try this I get

Step 9/9 : COPY docker/vhost.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
COPY failed: stat /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-builder704808398/docker/vhost.conf: no such file or directory
error Command failed with exit code 1.

Earlier in the build I do get
warning [email protected]: Invalid bin field for "url-loader".

[airtonix]

why are you using gatsby outside of the container? i'm so confuse.

I would have thougt this defeats the whole point of docker.

[gardner]

@airtonix the use case is to develop locally using the docker container and then deploy the code to production using the docker container. This is a selling point of docker and a common use case. It allows the developer to use specific versions of dependencies on the dev machine that may be incompatible with other projects they are working on.

And check the .dockerignore for the public folder. Worked for me then with this description.

Yes it will works for local development but not for the CI/CD environments where you dont have npm installed on the docker hosts.
