Docker container not downloading Spacy non-english models

Question

I already have a docker image built with spacy and other dependencies installed. I am trying to build another image using docker build, pulling from the existing image, which will contain non-english spacy modules. I am using Docker desktop to do this. This is my docker file:

FROM docker/image:14jul2020
ENV http_proxy="http://internet.com:83"
ENV https_proxy="http://internet.com:83"

# spacy
RUN pip install spacy
RUN python -m spacy de_dep_news_trf
RUN python -m spacy pt_core_news_sm

However, this code gives me an error only when it starts downloading the non-english modules.

Step 6/10 : RUN python -m spacy de_dep_news_trf
 ---> Running in b6de3cbe0490

    Unknown command: de_dep_news_trf
    Available: download, link, info, train, evaluate, convert, package,
    vocab, init-model, profile, validate

The command '/bin/sh -c python -m spacy de_dep_news_trf' returned a non-zero code: 1

Is there some other command i should be using to download these dependencies? DO i need any particular version support? I am just unable to figure out what i am doing wrong here. Any pointers is much appreciated.

The error already told where is wrong, your command should be:

python -m spacy download de_dep_news_trf
