Is there any reason why you're not using Docker's official node image in your dockerfile? i.e replacing FROM mhart/alpine-node:6 with FROM node:6-alpine.

The dockerfile builds and runs just as well with the change and I would assume that the official image is more secure.

Also, you can use apk --no-cache add instead of apk update && apk add ... && rm -fr /var/cache/apk. See this blog post
