npm install from private repo.md

Goal: Install a package from a private bitbucket repository, using npm, from within a docker build script.

Steps:

  • Add a project from a private repo to your package.json. For example: git+ssh://[email protected]/hamweather/private-repo
  • Generate ssh keys using ssh-keygen (see https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/set-up-ssh-for-git-728138079.html)
  • Save the public key to the bitbucket repo you want to install (see Settings > Deployment Keys)
  • Commit the private key to your repo
  • Commit the ssh-bitbucket.sh script to your repo
  • Add executable permissions to ssh-bitbucket.sh
  • Set permissionson the private key to 0600
  • Update your Dockerfile, as described below

At line 4 we are copying bitbucket_ssh_key

COPY ./bitbucket_ssh_key /opt/my-app

But at line 16, we are deleting bitbucket_rsa

RUN rm ./bitbucket_rsa

Is that an error? Should have been there "rm ./bitbucket_ssh_key" ?

Commit the private key to your repo

That sounds like a bad idea.

I tried this and works like a charm on my local machine. But somehow it does not work with github actions. I keep getting following error (repo url updated to prevent leak):

npm ERR! code 128
npm ERR! An unknown git error occurred
npm ERR! command git --no-replace-objects ls-remote ssh://[email protected]/My-Organization/My-Repository.git
npm ERR! Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,140.82.113.4' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
npm ERR! [email protected]: Permission denied (publickey).
npm ERR! fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
npm ERR!
npm ERR! Please make sure you have the correct access rights
npm ERR! and the repository exists.

Any idea why?
