Build meteor app in bitbucket pipelines.

Question

Hello,

I'm trying to use the Bitbucket pipelines for automated testing on commit. I now install meteor, change the locale (because MongoDB was reporting a problem with it), and then try to run my tests. I have got it to work, but it takes up to 12 minutes for the application to completely build. Is there any way to make this go faster? If I run the same test command on my laptop it only takes 30 seconds to finish.

Thanks in advance,

Elandiro

Managed to build a docker image with meteor installed on it that starts executing the test after 1min30sec instead of the 3min it takes for meteor to be installed on the default image. So that's an improvement. But making the meteor build seems to have gotten slower so the total run duration is 14 minutes now.

meteord doesn't work with the way our files are laid out.The root of the repo where the script should run is not inside our meteor app yet, so when it calls meteor build it errors. I've tried forking and changing it. After rebuilding the docker image I tried running it through the pipeline, but it told me meteor wasn't installed on the image.

After this I've tried making my own docker image with meteor installed on it. But it takes 8 minutes just to get the image, so this is even worse than the 3 minutes to start from the default image and just download and install meteor.
