Docker: RUN `npm run build` gives cannot find package.json file

So the situation is that I have coupled a bash script with docker. I use bash script to pull my code from the remote repo, and then execute the docker-compose

Here's my dockerfile

FROM node:6
WORKDIR /home/ayush/project-folder
RUN pwd
RUN npm run build
CMD ["forever", "server/app.js"]

Here's the section of my docker-compose.yml that has the above service listed:

  web:
    build: ./client
    environment:
      - NODE_VERSION=$NODE_WEB_VERSION
    ports:
      - "4200:4200"
  api:

And here's my simple bash script

#!/usr/bin/env bash
frontend=$1
backend=$2
git clone //remote_url --branch $frontend --single-branch
mv project-folder ~/
docker-compose up

But the issue is that the RUN npm run build gives error,

enoent ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '/home/ayush/project-folder/package.json'

What could be the issue?

You forgot to copy your project during build time, with 

...
COPY . ./
RUN npm run build
...

This will copy the whole build context (the contents of ./client) to the working directory, which you've set to /home/ayush/project-folder in the previous statement.
