Use npm packages inside n8n

Their docs and forums suck to be specific about this.

Install specific packages inside the n8n Docker container and then use it in its nodes:

# Use the official n8n image as the base
FROM n8nio/n8n:1.82.4

We should simply mirror a local config file to the MySQL config directory in Docker

File: ./docker-compose.local.yml (or however you name it)

services: 
  # [...]
  mysql:
      # [...]
 image: mysql:5.7

In case you need to run some custom script in the container, you may use CMD, like so:

FROM php:7.3-apache

# ...

COPY ./local/path/to/script.sh /remote/path/to/script.sh

	# I'm using .zshrc but should be valid in any sh or bash shell

	alias dexec='(){docker exec -it $1 /bin/bash;}'

	# Use it like this:
	# dexec <container name or ID>
	# dexec my_website
	# dexec ea2bdf44

	# Remove everything from Docker system
	alias dockerpurge='docker system prune --all --force --volumes'

	# Man I hate DS_Store files so much...
	alias rds='find . -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete && echo ".DS_Store files removed!"'

	# Open the hosts file with Atom (really useful for VirtualHosts)
	alias hosts='atom /private/etc/hosts'

	# Go to htdocs

	# DESCRIPTION: Simple example of "read -p" and it's usage when trying to print a simple concat from a function and a user input

	# Here we'll assume "$folder" comes from a previously-checked "getopts options" loop
	# (given as an argument for our script/command option, like "ourscript -f MyFolderName")

	# Print a styled "important:" text

	# Repeat this line as much as needed so you can access to project's SSH console asap using just the project name
	alias <PROJECT_NAME>='ssh -i /Users/<USER_NAME>/.ssh/<KEY_NAME> <USER>@<HOST>'

	# Remove everything from Docker system
	alias dockerpurge='docker system prune --all --force --volumes'

	# Man I hate DS_Store files so much...
	alias rds='find . -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete && echo ".DS_Store files removed!"'

	# Open a new terminal window on the same location as the current one is
