Azure pipeline, npmAuthenticate task in custom docker container

Question

I am trying to use npmAuthenticate task in azure pipeline which is running script in custom docker container

container:
  image: android_builder:37878
  endpoint: sc-acr

steps:
- task: npmAuthenticate@0
  inputs:
    workingFile: '.npmrc'
- script: |
    npm i

The azure private registry is in my organisation, but npm install is failing because of auth I haven't found a example of using this task in docker container in documentation, so not sure if this works in this way

the npm authenticate task is just for task runners. You can use the npm task itself, with your private registry as a custom feed

- task: Npm@1
  inputs:
    command: 'install'
    customRegistry: 'useFeed'
    customFeed: '<YOUR FEED ID>'

According to this link npm authenticate is the recommended way. I tried the above, npm task failed with the error npm ERR! Maximum call stack size exceeded npm install works if I copy-paste token in my .npmrc file, but its not ideal way as that token should not be committed with repo

are you trying to build in a Dockerfile? If so, you can have a multi-stage build
