How to fix Dockerfile npm install npm error

Question

I want to run a app on heroku using Dockerfile but it can`t run npm intsall

This is my Dockerfile:

FROM ubuntu:18.04
RUN apt-get update && apt-get upgrade -y && \
    apt-get install -y nodejs \
    npm
RUN apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y \
    ffmpeg \
    imagemagick \
    webp && \
    apt-get upgrade -y && \
    rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
COPY package.json .
RUN npm install
CMD ["node", "index.js"]

and this is error:

npm ERR! typeerror Error: Missing required argument #1
npm ERR! typeerror     at andLogAndFinish (/usr/share/npm/lib/fetch-package-metadata.js:31:3)

This is my app github reposity. Run using heroku.

Any idea how to solve this problem?

use better one of the official node images: `https://hub.docker.com/_/node` — Mihai, Sep 27 '22 at 12:28
[Unsupported engine node / NPM only when building in Docker](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57924847/unsupported-engine-node-npm-only-when-building-in-docker) also suggests using a `node` image. Ubuntu 18.04 is a little dated at this point, plus the standard Linux distributions tend to be slightly behind in versions of language runtimes they package, so with this Dockerfile I wouldn't be surprised to see a 5-year-old Node version that causes conflicts with newer packages. — David Maze, Sep 27 '22 at 13:25
