`bun install --frozen-lockfile` in workspaces works locally but fails when building docker image

[cybercoder-naj]

What version of Bun is running?

1.1.13+bd6a60512

What platform is your computer?

Linux 6.6.32-1-lts x86_64 unknown

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Initialise a bun repo bun init
2. Delete node_modules, bun.lockb and index.ts.
3. Add "workspaces": ["server"] in package.json.
4. Create an example server, I used bun create hono server. a. In the installation process, do not install dependencies.
5. In the root directory of the monorepo setup, run bun install.
6. Create a Dockerfile of the following:

FROM oven/bun:1.1.13
WORKDIR /app
COPY package.json bun.lockb server/package.json ./
RUN bun install --frozen-lockfile
COPY . .
CMD ["bun", "run", "dev"]

What is the expected behavior?

When I delete node_modules from the root directory of the project, bun install --frozen-lockfile succeeds without any error. However, when I build the docker image, the resultant error is,

bun install v1.1.13 (bd6a6051)

error: lockfile had changes, but lockfile is frozen
note: try re-running without --frozen-lockfile and commit the updated lockfile

What do you see instead?

Running it locally:

But when building a docker image:

Additional information

When building a docker image in a single project, it works. The issue is with bun workspaces.

Does this reproduce on Bun v1.1.17? The bun.lockb file is checked in to version control and copied to the Docker image right?

[cybercoder-naj]

Yes, in my monorepo setup, updating bun to 1.1.17 locally and changing the version of the docker image does not fix the issue. Also yes. I generate a new bun.lockb which is copied over to the docker image during build and errors when trying to build the docker image.

Any resolutions to this thread?

@cybercoder-naj I had to copy my "packages" as well.

COPY packages packages

ps. I guess it fails cause without them, bun doesn't find any packages, in the workspace.

[cybercoder-naj]

Unfortunately, that did not solve the issue.. Inside of a docker environment, bun complains about the lock file being modified.

Hmmm strange. It works for me in Bun 1.1.18

And I got this in my package.json.

{
  "workspaces": ["packages/*"]
}

[cybercoder-naj]

Here is my reproduction repo. Can you clone this and type two commands?

# First one
bun install --production

# Second one
docker build . --tag bun-issue:1.0.0

Is this an issue only on my system? Doesn't that defeat the entire purpose of docker?

[cybercoder-naj]

Hmmm strange. It works for me in Bun 1.1.18

@bjon same issue with 1.1.18 :(
