I’m configuring a very simple CI job. GitLab Runner is running on my own server, the specific runner for this project has been registered, with the shell executor, as I want to simply run shell commands.
stages:
- build
build:
stage: build
script:
- npm install
- npm run build
artifacts:
paths:
- "public/dist/main.js"
only:
- master
The job fails at the first command, npm install, with npm: command not found. I just installed npm and node via npm. If I SSH on my server and run npm -v, I can see version 8.5.5 is installed. If I sudo su gitlab-runner, which I suppose is what GitLab Runner is running as, npm -v works just as well.
I installed npm while gitlab-runner was already running. So I ran service gitlab-runner restart, thinking that it had to reevaluate its PATH, but it didn’t fix the issue.
I fixed it by simply adding this command before npm install: . ~/.bashrc.
I’m not sure why gitlab-runner didn’t properly read .bashrc before, even though I restarted it. Maybe it’s not supposed to? That would be contrary to what’s said in the GitLab CI runners docs.
N.B.: A key element in me being able to debug this was to clone the repo on a folder on my server, cd into it, and run gitlab-runner exec shell build after any (local) change to .gitlab-ci.yml. Skipping the whole commit + push + wait was a huge time (and sanity) saver.

I have this Ansible code:
- name: Installing project files
shell: |
cd /opt/ewd-server
npm install
become_user: prod-{{SITE}}
Every time I run the code and it reaches that part it keeps saying that the server doesn't have the proxy up. Even thought I executed 2 commands before that:
npm config set https-proxy
npm config set proxy
The values are actually the companies IP's, but redacted for obvious reasons.
The code keeps running until it reaches the 'npm install' task, stays for about half an hour, then Ansible gives the error 'ENOENT'.
NOTE: when I run the npm install command in the server without Ansible it works.
If anyone knows any replacement for npm that works with Ansible, or a solution for this issue please help.
Try configuring the environment variables 'http_proxy' and 'https_proxy':
- name: Installing project files, using a specific proxy
shell: |
cd /opt/ewd-server
npm install
become_user: prod-{{SITE}}
environment:
http_proxy: http://proxy.adres
https_proxy: http://proxy.adres
Of course, edit the proxy values.
I'm trying to set up a CI pipeline on GitLab.com using a private runner instead of a shared one. The project uses Node, so I'm using a node:6 image.
The .gitlab-ci.yml looks like this:
image: node:6
stages:
- test
javascript_tests:
stage: test
script:
- npm install
- npm run test:unit
when: always
The runner stays on "running" stage for about 30 minutes and only then started to output something relevant:
npm ERR! fetch failed
http://10.252.156.164:4880/#types%2fjsforce/-/jsforce-1.9.2.tgz
npm WARN retry will retry, error on last attempt: Error: connect ETIMEDOUT 10.252.156.164:4880
What can I do to solve this? I thought that installing gitlab-runner on a DigitalOcean droplet would be the only things to worry about.
Replacing node:6 with node:latest fixed this problem.
I'm trying to setup my first Bitbucket pipeline which simply builds my application and deploys it to my FTP server using the following bitbucket-pipelines.yml
image: node:6.9.4
pipelines:
default:
- step:
caches:
- node
script:
- npm install
- npm test
- step:
script:
- npm run build
- node deploy.js
The issue lies in the npm install because when bitbucket tries to run the npm run build command it says that rimraf (a npm package) is not found. rimraf however is listed in my devDependencies, all regular dependencies in my package.json are downloaded correctly.
There is no global variable set by my so the NODE_ENV could not be it right?
I had the same issue with gulp.
Gulp was in devDependencies and also specified in package.json as script but still it said npm ERR! missing script: gulp
The documentation says to install it globally, so there might be a related issue with your package.
https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/javascript-node-js-with-bitbucket-pipelines-873891287.html
I had this same issue. For me, the problem was that the version of Node on my local development device was different from the version of Node in the bitbucket-pipelines.yml file.
To fix it, I went into bitbucket-pipelines.yml and changed this line:
image: node:10.15.3
to this:
image: node:14.15.0
I have an interesting issue, I have a setup or rails project and the deployment/upgrades works absolutely fine when running as a dedicated user (deploy) who is used to setup everything.
I am using codeDeploy to manage the deployments and it uses root user to do the deployment on AWS, but during the deployment it fails on running the same script because it's not able to find npm command
cd client && npm run build:client
sh: 1: npm: not found
rake aborted!
Command failed with status (127): [cd client && npm run build:client...]
If i run it manually to check that i also get nothing
root#ip-172-31-4-141:/home/ubuntu# su deploy -c "which npm"
root#ip-172-31-4-141:/home/ubuntu#
NPM is available via the deploy user but I am struggling to understand why it's not available via the root user
deploy#ip-172-31-4-141:/home/ubuntu$ which npm
/home/deploy/.nvm/versions/node/v7.8.0/bin/npm
Any help to get this resolved would be great.
Thanks,
The issue here was that AWS CodeDeploy when starts deployment loads only a minimum env; to load all the env variables I have exported the env and then in the deploy phase source that file, which resolves my issue
Does the build have to run on the drone.io server? Can I run the build locally? Since developers need to pass the build first before pushing code to github, I am looking for a way to run the build on developer local machine. Below is my .drone.yml file:
pipeline:
build:
image: node:latest
commands:
- npm install
- npm test
- npm run eslint
integration:
image: mongo-test
commands:
- mvn test
It includes two docker containers. How to run the build against this file in drone? I looked at the drone cli but it doesn't work in my expected way.
#BradRydzewski comment is the right answer.
To run builds locally you use drone exec. You can check the docs.
Extending on his answer, you must execute the command in the root of your local repo, exactly where your .drone.yml file is. If your build relies on secrets, you need to feed these secrets through the command line using the --secret or --secrets-file option.
When running a local build, there is no cloning step. Drone will use your local git workspace and mount it in the step containers. So, if you checkout some other commit/branch/whatever during the execution of the local build, you will mess things up because Drone will see those changes. So don't update you local repo while the build is running.
