## Summary

Brings down and builds npm dependencies in the context of a Linux kernel and build environment. This is a useful if you develop on OS X, but want to use the exact same npm dependencies that will be used in production (Linux).

## Install

    docker pull imichael/npm-linux

## Usage

You can use this in any directory that has a `package.json` file in it. Just run:

    docker run -it -v "$PWD:/src" -it imichael/npm-linux

If you have npm modules that are in private git repos, you can also do:

    docker run -it \

     -v "$PWD:/src" \

     -v "$HOME/.ssh/id_rsa:/root/.ssh/id_rsa" \

     imichael/npm-linux

The above command mounts your ssh key into the container while it's being ran so that npm can use it. Both commands will grab all 

modules and build in Linux then save to `node_modules/` in the current directory of your host operating system (OS X).

## Upgrading

    docker pull imichael/npm-linux:latest

## Code

All code for this container is [here](https://github.com/iMerica/npm-linux).
