Docker stuck at npm install

I have a project that I want to dockerize. I run npm install and npm build with no problem on my computer, but it has some problems when I build with Docker.

Docker output:

Sending build context to Docker daemon  56.96MB
Step 1/7 : FROM node:12.2.0-alpine
---> f391dabf9dce
Step 2/7 : WORKDIR /app
---> Using cache
---> b50a8efbf074
Step 3/7 : ENV PATH /app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH
---> Using cache
---> 3358967a13ab
Step 4/7 : COPY package.json /app/package.json
---> Using cache
---> 851ac31a0adb
Step 5/7 : RUN npm install
---> Running in 8cc36a435cec
npm WARN deprecated core-js@1.2.7: core-js@<2.6.8 is no longer maintained. Please, upgrade to core-js@3 or at least to actual version of core-js@2.

It is stuck in this here:

Dockerfile:

# base image
FROM node:12.2.0-alpine

# set working directory
WORKDIR /app

# add `/app/node_modules/.bin` to $PATH
ENV PATH /app/node_modules/.bin:$PATH

# install and cache app dependencies
COPY package.json /app/package.json
RUN npm install
RUN npm install react-scripts@3.0.1 -g --silent

# start app
CMD ["npm", "start"]

I have done this with other dockerfiles, but the result was the same.

package.json:

{
  "name": "front",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "private": true,
  "dependencies": {
    "axios": "^0.18.0",
    "bootstrap": "^4.3.1",
    "express": "^4.17.0",
    "react": "^16.8.6",
    "react-dom": "^16.8.6",
    "react-router": "^5.0.0",
    "react-router-dom": "^5.0.0",
    "react-scripts": "2.1.8"
  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "react-scripts start",
    "build": "react-scripts build",
    "test": "react-scripts test",
    "eject": "react-scripts eject"
  },
  "eslintConfig": {
    "extends": "react-app"
  },
  "browserslist": [
    ">0.2%",
    "not dead",
    "not ie <= 11",
    "not op_mini all"
  ]

So, this might be a temporary solution till this is properly addressed, but you can use

npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org/

I have used it for docker environment and it worked fine.

I had the same issue. I just waited for 1 hour and it went to the next step.

Edit : While building the npm install downloads all the packages and it takes time to do that, it depends on the size of your application how long will it take.
