Its event-driven, non-blocking I/O supports fast, scalable, and data-intensive server apps. This ultra-lightweight option is ideal for security-focused and resource-constrained environments.\n\n[Overview of Node.js minimal](https://nodejs.org/)\nTrademarks: This software listing is packaged by Bitnami. The respective trademarks mentioned in the offering are owned by the respective companies, and use of them does not imply any affiliation or endorsement.\n\nRefer to our [documentation](https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/vmware-tanzu/application-catalog/tanzu-application-catalog/services/tac-doc/minimal-container-minimal-container.html) to get started with the minimal container.\n\n## TL;DR\n\n```console\ndocker run --name node-min REGISTRY_NAME/bitnami/node-min:latest\n```\n\n> Note: You need to substitute the `REGISTRY_NAME` placeholder with a reference to your container registry.\n\n## Choosing between the _Standard_ and _Minimal_ image\n\nThis asset is available in two flavors: _Standard_ and _Minimal_; designed to address different use cases and operational needs.\n\n### Standard images\n\nThe standard images are full-featured, production-ready containers built on top of secure base operating systems. They include:\n\n- The complete runtime and commonly used system tools.\n- A familiar Linux environment (shell, package manager, debugging utilities).\n- Full compatibility with most CI/CD pipelines and existing workloads.\n\nRecommended for:\n\n- Development and testing environments.\n- Workloads requiring package installation or debugging tools.\n- Applications that depend on system utilities or shared libraries.\n\n### Minimal images\n\nThe minimal images are optimized, distroless-style containers derived from a stripped-down base. They only ship what’s strictly necessary to run the application; no shell, package manager, or extra libraries. They provide:\n\n- Smaller size: Faster pull and startup times.\n- Reduced attack surface: Fewer components and potential vulnerabilities.\n- Simpler maintenance: Fewer dependencies to patch or update.\n\nRecommended for:\n\n- Production environments prioritizing performance and security.\n- Regulated or security-sensitive workloads\n- Containers built via multi-stage builds (e.g., Golang static binaries).\n\n## Supported tags and respective `Dockerfile` links\n\nLearn more about the Bitnami tagging policy and the difference between rolling tags and immutable tags [in our documentation page](https://techdocs.broadcom.com/us/en/vmware-tanzu/application-catalog/tanzu-application-catalog/services/tac-doc/apps-tutorials-understand-rolling-tags-containers-index.html).\n\n## Get this image\n\nThe Bitnami Node.js minimal Docker image is only available to [Bitnami Secure Images](https://bitnami.com) customers.\n\n## Entering the REPL\n\nBy default, running this image will drop you into the Node.js minimal REPL, where you can interactively test and try things out in Node.js minimal.\n\n```console\ndocker run -it --name node bitnami/node-min\n```\n\n**Further Reading:**\n\n- [nodejs.org/api/repl.html](https://nodejs.org/api/repl.html)\n\n## Configuration\n\nThe following section describes how to run commands\n\n### Running your Node.js minimal script\n\nThe default work directory for the Node.js minimal image is `/app`. You can mount a folder from your host here that includes your Node.js minimal script, and run it normally using the `node` command.\n\n```console\ndocker run -it --name node -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/node-min script.js\n```\n\n### Running a Node.js minimal app with npm dependencies\n\nIf your Node.js minimal app has a `package.json` defining your app's dependencies and start script, you need to install the dependencies before running your app.\n\nThe process require using a full node image to run `npm install`, then the application including its modules can be mounted to be executed using the bitnami/node-min image.\n\n```console\ndocker run --rm -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/node npm install\ndocker run -it --name node -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/node-min \n```\n\n## Accessing a Node.js minimal app running a web server\n\nBy default the image exposes the port `3000` of the container. You can use this port for your Node.js minimal application server.\n\nBelow is an example of an [express.js](http://expressjs.com/) app listening to remote connections on port `3000`:\n\n```javascript\nvar express = require('express');\nvar app = express();\n\napp.get('/', function (req, res) {\n res.send('Hello World!');\n});\n\nvar server = app.listen(3000, '0.0.0.0', function () {\n\n var host = server.address().address;\n var port = server.address().port;\n\n console.log('Example app listening at http://%s:%s', host, port);\n});\n```\n\nTo access your web server from your host machine you can ask Docker to map a random port on your host to port `3000` inside the container.\n\n```console\ndocker run -it --name node -v /path/to/app:/app -P bitnami/node-min index.js\n```\n\nRun `docker port` to determine the random port Docker assigned.\n\n```console\n$ docker port node\n3000/tcp -> 0.0.0.0:32769\n```\n\nYou can also specify the port you want forwarded from your host to the container.\n\n```console\ndocker run -it --name node -p 8080:3000 -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/node-min index.js\n```\n\nAccess your web server in the browser by navigating to `http://localhost:8080`.\n\n## Connecting to other containers\n\nIf you want to connect to your Node.js minimal web server inside another container, you can use docker networking to create a network and attach all the containers to that network.\n\n### Serving your Node.js minimal app through an nginx frontend\n\nWe may want to make our Node.js minimal web server only accessible via an nginx web server. Doing so will allow us to setup more complex configuration, serve static assets using nginx, load balance to different Node.js minimal instances, etc.\n\n#### Step 1: Create a network\n\n```console\ndocker network create app-tier --driver bridge\n```\n\n#### Step 2: Create a virtual host\n\nLet's create an nginx virtual host to reverse proxy to our Node.js minimal container.\n\n```nginx\nserver {\n listen 0.0.0.0:80;\n server_name yourapp.com;\n\n location / {\n proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;\n proxy_set_header HOST $http_host;\n proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;\n\n # proxy_pass http://[your_node_container_link_alias]:3000;\n proxy_pass http://myapp:3000;\n proxy_redirect off;\n }\n}\n```\n\nNotice we've substituted the link alias name `myapp`, we will use the same name when creating the container.\n\nCopy the virtual host above, saving the file somewhere on your host. We will mount it as a volume in our nginx container.\n\n#### Step 3: Run the Node.js minimal image with a specific name\n\n```console\ndocker run -it --name myapp --network app-tier \\\n -v /path/to/app:/app \\\n bitnami/node-min index.js\n```\n\n#### Step 4: Run the nginx image\n\n```console\ndocker run -it \\\n -v /path/to/vhost.conf:/bitnami/nginx/conf/vhosts/yourapp.conf:ro \\\n --network app-tier \\\n bitnami/nginx\n```\n\n\n### FIPS configuration in Bitnami Secure Images\n\nThe Bitnami Node.js minimal Docker image from the [Bitnami Secure Images](https://go-vmware.broadcom.com/contact-us) catalog includes extra features and settings to configure the container with FIPS capabilities. You can configure the next environment variables:\n\n- `OPENSSL_FIPS`: whether OpenSSL runs in FIPS mode or not. `yes` (default), `no`.\n\n## License\n\nCopyright © 2026 Broadcom.
