I'm trying to run one of my Docker work projects from MacBook Air M1 and I'm getting the following error while executing docker-compose up. Apparently it can't find the python installation, even though I can do both python --version and python3 --version from terminal. I'm relatively new to Docker but I tried to troubleshoot every possible thing to solve this error

I tried all of the things that the error suggests - setting the path variable of the python, and trying to set NPM's config to the python's path but no luck...
I also tried downgrading node to v16, as node-sass 6.0.1 is not compatible with node v17 according to the docs
I have python 3.9.8 installed via homebrew, and running which python3 outputs /opt/homebrew/bin/python3
node -v: v16.13.0
npm -v: v8.1.0
echo $PATH: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.10/bin /opt/homebrew/bin:/opt/homebrew/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Library/Apple/usr/bin
npm config list:
prefix = "/opt/homebrew"
; "global" config from /opt/homebrew/etc/npmrc
; python = "/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/libexec/bin" ; overridden by user
; "user" config from /Users/**username**/.npmrc
python = "/opt/homebrew/opt/[email protected]/libexec/bin"

Problem:
The python is installed locally on your macbook but not inside the docker container (which is an isolated virtual os).
Solution
You need to install python in the same container where you are running the nodejs script or npm command.
Try Adding this after pulling your nodejs image in dockerFile
RUN apt-get update || : && apt-get install python -y
That is for debian or debian based linux distro ... (if you have official Node image that is based on debian so the upper line should work fine right after you pull the image run you need to install python in the same container).
