Fails to install node on raspberry pi

[rchl]

After #1 was fixed, I'm now getting different error on trying to create docker container on raspberry pi 3. Here is relevant part (it fails on running nvm install --lts):

Step 5/8 : RUN cd /home/user &&     curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/creationix/nvm/v0.33.7/install.sh | bash &&     export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm" &&     [ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && . "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" &&     nvm install --lts &&     npm install -g yarn &&     mkdir mozilla-iot &&     cd mozilla-iot &&     git clone https://github.com/mozilla-iot/intent-parser &&     git clone https://github.com/mozilla-iot/gateway &&     cd gateway &&     yarn

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b <new-branch-name>

=> Close and reopen your terminal to start using nvm or run the following to use it now:

export NVM_DIR="$HOME/.nvm"

I have been googling this problem quite a bit and found veeery similar issue filed for other ARM device: https://github.com/creationix/nvm/issues/1354 . Basically it seems to boil down to missing BLX instruction on the ARM architecture but obviously raspberry pi 3 CAN run nodejs (I do it outside of docker), but maybe the docker layer is the problem here.

So not sure that can be fixed but I wonder if you have Pi3 to test with and can confirm same problem.

Every time I try to build on my RPi3, docker just freezes up at Step 3/8. Have you seen that at all?

[rchl]

No, I haven't seen that. Sorry.

[mrstegeman]

Figured out my issue. I will try to get this built and update the Dockerfile tomorrow.

[mrstegeman]

I've got the same issue. I'll look into it.

@rchl This should be working now. I've successfully gotten a container running on my RPi3 and am able to set up my domain, add devices, etc. Let me know if you have additional issues!
