Node-red in docker container - apt command not found

General
1

I have node-red installed on my docker server running on ubuntu 21.10:
docker run -it -p 1880:1880 -v node_red_data:/data --name mynodered nodered/node-red

And wanted to install the imagemagick software in the same container but just discovered that the apt command is missing:

lab@docker:~$ sudo docker exec -it nodered bash
bash-5.0$ apt update
bash: apt: command not found
bash-5.0$

Can you help ?
Is it possible to have the apt command available?

The official node-red docker image runs on alpine : Running under Docker : Node-RED

Alpine uses apk instead of apt

If you customise the image, sure.
