Catching error `SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list` when trying to deploy NextJS app to Docker

Question

I have a basic NextJS setup with a custom Express server.

I'm trying to Dockerize the app. Here is my Dockerfile:

FROM node:alpine

WORKDIR /usr/app

RUN npm install --global pm2

COPY ./package.json ./

RUN yarn docker:build

COPY ./ ./

RUN yarn build

EXPOSE 3000

USER node

CMD [ "pm2-runtime", "yarn", "dev" ]

My docker:build command is,

rm -rf node_modules && rm -rf yarn.lock yarn && yarn

Anyway, I try to run docker-compose up and I run into the below error:

nextjs_1  | /opt/yarn-v1.22.5/bin/yarn:2
nextjs_1  | argv0=$(echo "$0" | sed -e 's,\\,/,g')
nextjs_1  |         ^^^^
nextjs_1  | SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
nextjs_1  |     at wrapSafe (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1018:16)
nextjs_1  |     at Module._compile (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1066:27)
nextjs_1  |     at Object.Module._extensions..js (node:internal/modules/cjs/loader:1131:10)

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong here.

I've simplified my setup in a repo here.

Any help would be appreciated.

Why not just RUN yarn at that step (the image won't have a node_modules directory yet, and you don't want to delete the lock file)? Does that error come when building the image or running it? Are you doing something that might cause the yarn script wrapper to be interpreted with Node? — David Maze

When next builds, it drops the compiled JavaScript into .next folder. Additionally, pm2 takes a start command.
