How to fix `Error: spawn ./node_modules/jpegtran-bin/vendor/jpegtran ENOENT` error for imagemin

If you're trying to run imagemin (from grunt or gulp or anything else) on Alpine, you certainly had to meet this error :

Error: spawn /YOUR_PROJECT_PATH/node_modules/jpegtran-bin/vendor/jpegtran ENOENT or the same with optipng or gifsicle instead of jpegtran.

Here's how to solve it.

First you need to install on Alpine missing package used to compile jpegtran, gifsicle and optipng binaries. Those packages are (at least):

autoconf automake file build-base nasm musl libpng-dev zlib-dev

Now, rebuild your container.

And then, remove your node_module directory, and run npm install or yarn command.

Enjoy 🎉

Note: this workaround works like a charm for me, please comment here if your meet other issues ;)
