Docker container for creating ChromeDriver servers

Docker container for creating a ChromeDriver server

Includes

  • ChromeDriver (Latest)
  • Google Chrome (Latest Stable)

Building the Docker Image

You can build the image by either building from GitHub or cloning the repository.

To build from GitHub:

docker build -t "robcherry/docker-chromedriver:latest" github.com/robcherry/docker-chromedriver

If you choose to clone the repository locally, cd in to the repository's root directory and run:

docker build -t "robcherry/docker-chromedriver:local" .

You can also pull the final built image from docker:

docker pull robcherry/docker-chromedriver:latest

Usage

The most basic usage is to run the container and expose the ChromeDriver port on all interfaces.

docker run --name chromedriver -P -d robcherry/docker-chromedriver:latest

If you want to restrict the ports to your local environment, you can do so using -p.

docker run --name chromedriver -p 127.0.0.1::4444 robcherry/docker-chromedriver:latest

Note: ChromeDriver restricts access to local connections by default. To allow external connections, you can pass in a custom CHROMEDRIVER_WHITELISTED_IPS environment variable. By default, this is set to 127.0.0.1, but this can by any comma separated list of IP addresses. Setting the value as empty will allow all remote connections.

docker run --name chromedriver -p 127.0.0.1::4444 -e CHROMEDRIVER_WHITELISTED_IPS='' robcherry/docker-chromedriver:latest
