Oracle client libraries missing in node-based docker image

Question

Here is my docker image

FROM node:8-alpine
ADD oracle-instantclient*.rpm /tmp/
COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN npm install --production --no-optional
ENV LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/oracle/12.2/client64/lib/
CMD ["node", "."]

I am getting error

Adding the .rpm to your image is not sufficient to install the Oracle client. You need to install it through a package manager.

That might not be easy, since you are using node:8-alpine as a base image. I would suggest using the normal node image and installing the Oracle instantclient like so in your image:

FROM node:8
ADD oracle-instantclient*.rpm /tmp/

RUN  yum -y install /tmp/oracle-instantclient*.rpm && \
     rm -rf /var/cache/yum && \
     rm -f /tmp/oracle-instantclient*.rpm && \
     echo /usr/lib/oracle/12.2/client64/lib > /etc/ld.so.conf.d/oracle-instantclient12.2.conf && \
     ldconfig

ENV PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/oracle/12.2/client64/bin

COPY . /app
WORKDIR /app
RUN npm install --production --no-optional
CMD ["node", "."]

Or use the Oracle Instant Client image: github.com/oracle/docker-images/tree/master/OracleInstantClient The 18.3 based image is a whole lot simpler now that Oracle Instant Client 18.3 doesn't need a click through from yum.oracle.com. Note that 18.3 clients can connect to the same DB versions as the 12.2 client.
