Prisma fails to generate artifacts with NodeJS Alpine image on M1 Mac

Bug description

Following the request from Jan here, I’ve created this as a new ticket.

While attempting to build/run prisma using a NodeJS Alpine image, prisma fails to generate artifacts during the postinstall script, as a result, running the application cannot find generated models and typescript type-checking fails.

When observing the npm install logs, I note the following error:

Error: Unknown binaryTarget linux-arm-openssl-undefined and no custom binaries were provided. Which has been tracked before, but according to recent posts, this should still work within Rosetta 2 emulation, right?

I should note, that if I run a general FROM node:14, the project builds no problem, using FROM node:14-slim or alpine fails.

I’ve attached the docker build logs so you can see the failing script line here:

build-output.txt

How to reproduce

1. Use M1 Mac
2. Clone the following NestJS Prisma repo I’ve created: https://github.com/uncvrd/prisma-alpine-docker
3. Build the image using: docker build -t [IMAGE TAG] --target development --no-cache --progress plain .
4. Run the built image locally and observe the missing generated files

Expected behavior

I expect to be able to build and run using NodeJS Alpine on M1 Mac. I can confirm that this Dockerfile works as expected on an Intel Mac so I guess the Rosetta 2 emulation is not running as expected?

Prisma information

Prisma schema etc. is referenced in the repository above.

Environment & setup

• OS: Mac OS Big Sur 11.4
• Database: PostgreSQL
• Node.js version: 14 (in docker image)

^ ran this inside the docker container, I do find it interesting that it shows darwin as this is an alpine image running in the docker container?

Not using Alpina will result in really large Docker images, so it would be helpful if binaries get made for this situation.

Hey @janpio I have now tested on 3 different devices using the referenced repo:

• iMac M1: Fails during postinstall hook Error: Unknown binaryTarget linux-arm-openssl-undefined and no custom binaries were provided
• Macbook Pro M1: Fails during postinstall hook Error: Unknown binaryTarget linux-arm-openssl-undefined and no custom binaries were provided
• Macbook Pro Intel: Succeeds

Hope that helps, What can I help with next?
