Last Thursday I posted a short update to the Docker Recipes for Node.js Development ebook pre-sale, setting a stretch goal of 100 sales before today – Monday, January 23rd.d

And I’m happy to say that the goal was hit by Friday morning, at 9am!

Over the weekend, sales bumped up to 125 total, easily outperforming my original goal of 100 sales by the end of January!

And with both the original, and stretch goal met…

As promised, I’ve updated the Docker Recipes for Node.js Development ebook with an early version of another great recipe:

Here’s a preview of the current introduction for the recipe:

I’ve tested the solution that this recipe provides, and have found that my npm install time – for an empty Express.js installation – has dropped from 30 seconds to less than 15.

That’s an incredible performance improvement, and it only took 1 line of configuration in my Docker image to make it happen!

If you’ve already purchased the pre-sale ebook, use the same download link (or the link in the update email I just sent to you) to get your updated version.

If you haven’t yet purchased the book, but you’ve been dealing with slow npm install times in your Docker containers when using volume mounts, now is the time to pick up the book and get that problem solved!

It’s easier than you might think, but it’s one of those little secrets that no one would think of until after they see it in action.
