This is just a general community question as I could not find any threads on this that were relevant. But has anyone been able to successfully dockerize a node js server running the HTML2PDF module? I am having a lot of issue doing so, and was just curious if others were able to overcome the missing modules error due to how docker links may differ with how the html2pdf module looks for file paths.

I am getting this error on “docker-compose up” but if i run npm run build or anything outside of docker it works fine.
I am running on the following npm package: “@pdftron/pdfnet-node”: “10.3.0”.
Here is my Dokcerfile as well:
Build layer
FROM node:20-bullseye-slim AS builder
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y --no-install-recommends dumb-init
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci
COPY . .
RUN npm run build
Runtime layer
FROM node:20-bullseye-slim AS server
ENV NODE_ENV production
COPY --from=builder /usr/bin/dumb-init /usr/bin/dumb-init
USER node
WORKDIR /app
COPY --chown=node:node --from=builder /usr/src/app/node_modules /usr/src/app/node_modules
COPY --chown=node:node . /usr/src/app
CMD [“dumb-init”, “node”, “index.js”]

Hello,
It looks like you are targeting 10.3 version of the SDK which does not support node 20. Instead, please use version 10.7. That should resolve the issue with installing the version of Node.
In addition, the HTML2PDF module requires some additional dependencies as described in this guide. Please ensure that the appropriate packages are installed in the container you are using.
