Tiny, Alpine Linux-based Nodejs Container for Docker, wirth Runit support.

Runit support based on: https://github.com/faisyl/alpine-runit⁠

Compare 60MB of this container with typical 500MB to 800MB sizes you get with Ubuntu- or CentOS-based images.

⁠Adding More Packages (if needed)

If you need more packages installed (e.g. make, gcc for compiling some native Node modules, or imagemagick etc.) base your new container on this one and you can use apk package manager that Alpine provides. For instance:

apk search --update imagemagick

or:

apk add make gcc g++ python linux-header
