The best way for you is to take java (which is officially deprecated and it suggests you use openjdk image) and install node in it.

So, start with

FROM openjdk:latest

This will use the latest openjdk image, which is 8u151 at this time. Then install node and other dependencies you might need:

RUN apt-get install -y curl \  && curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_9.x | bash - \  && apt-get install -y nodejs \  && curl -L https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh | sh

You might want to install things like grunt afterwards, so this might come in handy as well.

RUN npm install -g grunt grunt-cli

In total you will get the following Dockerfile:

FROM openjdk:latestRUN apt-get install -y curl \  && curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_9.x | bash - \  && apt-get install -y nodejs \  && curl -L https://www.npmjs.com/install.sh | sh \RUN npm install -g grunt grunt-cli

You may clone the Dockerfile from my gitlab repo here

You can use single FROM per generated image.Try to use node as a base image and install java to it.

Dockerfile

FROM node:latestRUN apt-get -y install default-jre

You can choose the version you need:

apt install default-jreapt install openjdk-11-jre-headlessapt install openjdk-8-jre-headless

You can also use the node image and then install the default-jre:

# DockerfileFROM node:latestRUN apt-get -y install default-jre

You can choose the version you need:

apt install default-jreapt install openjdk-11-jre-headlessapt install openjdk-8-jre-headless
