# Docker Utility Containers & Executing Commands - (Section 5)
This docker utility container will help us execute npm commands without installing node in our machine. I've used node 20.10-alpine version in this project.
## How to run node in interactive mode as shell in our machine
```shell
docker run -it --rm --name node-util node:20.10-alpine
```
## How to run node in interactive mode without any Dockerfile in terminal to use npm commands
```bash
docker run -it -d --rm --name node-util node:20.10-alpine
```
- Executing npm command (say `npm init`)
```bash
docker exec -it node-util npm init
```
The docker `exec` command helps us to execute(run) a new command inside the running container.
## Set-up using Dockerfile
1. Build the image
```shell
docker build . -t actionanand/node-util
```
2. You can run any command begining with `npm` (leave `npm` and add remaining at the end of following command)
```bash
docker run -it --rm --name node-util -v "D:\AR_extra\rnd\docker\node-util:/app" actionanand/node-util
```
For wsl2, mac and linux
```bash
docker run -it --rm --name node-util -v $(pwd):/app actionanand/node-util
```
To run `npm init` command
```bash
docker run -it --rm --name node-util -v $(pwd):/app actionanand/node-util init
```
To run `npm install express`
```shell
docker run -it --rm --name node-util -v $(pwd):/app actionanand/node-util install express
```
## Set-up using docker-compose
* `docker-compose run` is used to run **single service** from multiple services present indide `docker-compose.yaml`
Usage
```bash
docker-compose run --rm
```
Consider `npm-util` is the registered service name in `docker-compose.yaml` and If you want to execute `npm init`, the following will be the command to be executed!
```bash
docker-compose run --rm npm-util init
```
So if `npm` is the registered service name,
```bash
docker-compose run --rm npm init
```
