How to install nvm in docker?

Question

I am in the process of building a new Docker image and I\'m looking to get NVM installed so I can manage nodejs.

Reading the docs on how to install NVM they mention

Answer 1

This is what worked for me (I'm using debian buster):

RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y build-essential checkinstall libssl-dev
RUN curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.35.1/install.sh | bash
SHELL ["/bin/bash", "--login", "-c"]

You should now be able to do nvm install .
