Docker
Puppeteer offers a Docker image that includes Chrome for Testing along with the required
dependencies and a pre-installed Puppeteer version. The image is available via
the
GitHub Container Registry.
The latest image is tagged as latest and other tags match Puppeteer versions.
For example,
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest # pulls the latest
docker pull ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:16.1.0 # pulls the image that contains Puppeteer v16.1.0
The image is meant for running the browser in sandbox mode and therefore,
running the image requires the SYS_ADMIN capability.
Usage
To use the docker image directly, run:
docker run -i --init --cap-add=SYS_ADMIN --rm ghcr.io/puppeteer/puppeteer:latest node -e "$(cat path/to/script.js)"
where path/to/script.js is the path relative to your working directory. Note
the image requires the SYS_ADMIN capability since the browser runs in sandbox
mode.
If you need to build an image based on a different base image, you can use our
Dockerfile
as the starting point.
:::caution
Make sure to specify a init process via the --init flag or a custom ENTRYPOINT
to make sure all processes started by Puppeteer are managed properly.

dbus
The image installs and configures dbus for Chrome. Usually you would not need dbus in the headless mode but you might see warnings in the browser console. You can start the dbus service before launching your application:
sudo service dbus start
