Hello, A few times in recent weeks and twice this past week there was discussion on slack about our nodejs8 and nodejs10 images and the lack of packages in these images. As we move to deprecate nodejs6 with its coming end of life, this is worth re-considering: should we include some popular images in the base image?
We had previously eschewed packages because the thought was providers roll their own. But I'm finding that our nodejs6 runtime more convenient for some development because of its built-in packages. So I opened a draft PR (new on GitHub!) to add some packages to our images here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-runtime-nodejs/pull/111 Feedback welcome and especially appreciated if you aren't a provider that runs their own images. -r
