NodeJS Pipeline: Node vs atlassian image

Question

Hello, specifying "image: node:14.X" in the pipeline leads to the "npm install" failure. The "npm install" will also fail, if I use "node:16". But if I specify " image:atlassian/default-image:3" the " npm install" will succeed. According to the documentation: * node: 14.17.5 Question: what makes the images different? Bitbucket_pipelines.yml: working version: image: atlassian/default-image:3 pipelines: default: - parallel: - step: name: Build and Test caches: - node script: - npm install ``` Failing version: image: node:14.17.5 pipelines: default: - parallel: - step: name: Build and Test caches: - node script: - npm install Log: npm ERR! checking the name lister (/usr/bin/nm -B) interface...

@Pramodh M:

thank you for a quick reply.

> .. If you need to use a node image, find where the node path is, and add it, then you will be able to use it

what is the "node path"?

sorry, I'm not familiar with the node ecosystem.

What i find odd is that "image : node" is used in the pipeline template in the BB for NodeJs builds...

Hi @Admin Admin

node doesn't have your scripts pipe defined

name: Build and Test
caches:
- node
script:
- npm install

So this part will fail if you use node image!!

You can use the Atlassian Image and then modify based on what software you need to use while building a pipeline

If you need to use a node image, find where the node path is, and add it, then you will be able to use it

Let me know if you need further clarification

Thanks,
Pramodh
