Docker agent running a jenkins job using wrong npm version

Context :

I’m building a react app using a jenkins pipeline, where the agent is docker agent defined by a Dockerfile in the root of my project, the bug happens in the npm ci stage, where i the console prints warnings about the node version being old ( v12 ), which is wierd because i installed the latest using nvm ( see Dockelfile ).

The Problem :

In the build logs it says i’m using node v12, but when building the docker image i printed the node version and it was v20.

This is my Jenkinsfile :

pipeline {

    agent {
        dockerfile {
            filename 'Dockerfile.agent'
        }
    }

    environment {
        TAG="$env.BRANCH_NAME-v$BUILD_NUMBER"
        REGISTRY="foo"
        AWS_REGION="eu-north-1"
    }

    stages {
        stage('Build React App') {
            steps {
                script {
                    sh "npm ci"
                    sh "npm run build"
                }
            }
        }
        stage("Build Docker Image") {
            steps {
                sh "docker build -t staff-manager-admin-ui  ."
            }
        }
        stage('Push to Registry') {
            steps {
                script {
                    withCredentials([string(credentialsId: 'aws-key', variable: 'awsKey'), string(credentialsId: 'aws-secret', variable: 'awsSecret')]) {
                        withEnv(["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=$awsKey", "AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=$awsSecret", "AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=$AWS_REGION"]) {
                            sh "aws ecr get-login-password --region $AWS_REGION | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin $REGISTRY"
                            sh "docker tag staff-manager-admin-ui $REGISTRY:$TAG"
                            sh "docker push $REGISTRY:$TAG"
                        }
                    }
                }
                
            }
        }
    }
}

this is the Dockerfile.agent :

FROM jenkins/agent:latest

USER root

# Install stuff needed for 
RUN apt-get update && 
    apt-get install -y npm docker awscli default-jdk && 
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

# install npm & node
RUN curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.3/install.sh | bash 
    && . ~/.nvm/nvm.sh 
    && nvm install node 
    && node -e "console.log('Running Node.js ' + process.version)"

# Add nvm path to bashrc and source it
RUN echo 'export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"' >> $HOME/.bashrc 
    && echo '[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh"' >> $HOME/.bashrc

# Source bashrc to make nvm available in this shell
RUN . $HOME/.bashrc


# Add the commands to fix npm permissions
RUN mkdir -p /.npm
RUN chown -R 1002:1002 /.npm


# USER jenkins
USER 1002:1002

Here’s a screenshot of the relevant part of the Docker image building

and then during npm ci it says i’m using v12 ?

When you have multiple RUN commands in your Dockerfile, each of them is run in an independent process. So anything set in the environment of one RUN command is not persisted in the environment of next RUN command.

This is actually required because nvm sets the NODE_VERSION in the environment variable to determine the default version to use.

There are a couple of ways to solve this:
1. You can use a node version specific base image for your Dockerfile. That way, you wont even need nvm. Check out some of the images here: https://hub.docker.com/_/node/ (eg: 20-bullseye-slim)
2. You can use the ENV command to persist the environment variables that nvm uses, like NVM_DIR, NODE_PATH, NODE_VERSION and PATH.
```
# Create the directory to store nvm
RUN mkdir -p /usr/local/nvm

# export this env var
ENV NVM_DIR /usr/local/nvm

# set the node version you want here
ENV NODE_VERSION v20.6.1

# download nvm
RUN curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nvm-sh/nvm/v0.39.3/install.sh | bash

RUN /bin/bash -c "source $NVM_DIR/nvm.sh && nvm install $NODE_VERSION && nvm use --delete-prefix $NODE_VERSION"

# persist the paths that nvm normally does
ENV NODE_PATH $NVM_DIR/versions/node/$NODE_VERSION/bin
ENV PATH $NODE_PATH:$PATH

RUN node -v
```
