Use dockerfile to build npm project

I have Dockerfile like:

FROM node:10-alpine

RUN mkdir -p /home/node/app/node_modules && chown -R node:node /home/node/app

WORKDIR /home/node/app

COPY package*.json ./

USER node

RUN npm install

COPY --chown=node:node . .

RUN npm run build

I need compiled files on my local drive not in docker container. VOLUME looks like I need I think, but dunno how to do it, to make the build and share those build files.

can someone help me ? thanks!

You can use 

docker cp <containerId>:/file/path/within/container /host/path/target

Assuming npm run build in your Dockerfile produces a build directory, you can get it locally using a volume indeed

docker build -t <yourcontainername> .
docker run \
    -v ${PWD}/build:/home/node/app/build \
    -it <yourcontainername>
