Chromedriver with Chromium Docker image / PHP Installer

Chromedriver Chromium

This is a Dockerfile to create a Webdriver image with ChromeDriver and Chromium out-of-box.

Usage

General

The spryker/chromedriver image is public and available on Docker Hub. You can use this repository to run and install Chromedriver with appropriate version of Chromium within:

• Docker
• Composer (PHP)
• Travis CI

Docker

The spryker/chromedriver is available on Docker Hub. starts a Chromedriver server on port 4444 by default. In its turn, Chromedriver wraps Webdriver to run tests within Chromium ecosystem.

The very basic docker-compose configuration that is sufficient to use Chromium and Chromedriver within your ecosystem is next:

version: "3.7"
services:
  chromedriver:
    image: spryker/chromedriver
    init: true
    environment:
      - CHROMIUM_VERSION=726767
    volumes:
      - ./assets:/home/webdriver/assets:ro
    expose:
      - "4444"

You can control the revision of Chromium (and Chromedriver as well) with just putting CHROMIUM_REVISION environment variable into docker-compose template (as mentioned above).

Composer

To install Chromedriver with Chromium onboard, you just need to run

composer require --dev "spryker/docker-chromedriver"

and modify composer.json file to make all necessary installation actions:

{
  "scripts": {
    "post-install-cmd": [
      "ChromedriverInstaller\\Installer::installChromedriver"
    ],
    "post-update-cmd": [
      "ChromedriverInstaller\\Installer::installChromedriver"
    ]
  }
}

This will lead to install of the latest nightly build of Chromedriver and Chromium.

To freeze version of Chromedriver you can take on any revision number and mention it within composer.json configuration (just ensure your revision contains both Chromedriver and Chromium archives):

{
  "config": {
    "chromium-revision": 814168
  }
}

Next time you will run Composer install/update, script will check whether the revision has changed and/or differs from latest/fixed one. If so, it will install the actual version of Chromedriver. Nothing will happen in else case. This is to reduce Composer worktime.

Skip installation

To ignore Chromedriver installation process just set the appropriate variable berfore running Composer:

export COMPOSER_IGNORE_CHROMEDRIVER=1

This will force skipping installation procedure during Composer run.

Travis CI

To use this package within Travis image you just need to use chromium-installer to prepare Chromium and Chromedriver for run.

First of all, you need to specify cache directory:

cache:
  directories:
    - $HOME/chromium-ecosystem

Then download and unzip installer:

before_install:
  # Chromedriver section
  - curl -L "https://github.com/spryker/docker-chromedriver/archive/master.zip" -o $HOME/chromium-ecosystem/chromiumdriver.zip
  - unzip -o $HOME/chromium-ecosystem/chromiumdriver.zip -d $HOME/chromium-ecosystem/
  # Here you can leave 0 for installing latest nightly build
  - export CHROMEDRIVER_REVISION=814168

And finally run installer:

  # Exposes ${CHROMEDRIVER_BINARY} and ${CHROMIUM_BINARY}
  - . $HOME/chromium-ecosystem/chromiumdriver-master/chromium-installer $CHROMEDRIVER_REVISION $HOME/chromium-ecosystem false

And finally, ensure you have added all dependencies, needed to run Chromium:

addons:
  apt:
    update: true
    packages:
      - unzip
      - gnupg
      - libnss3-dev
      - ca-certificates
      - fonts-liberation
      - libappindicator3-1
      - libasound2
      - libatk-bridge2.0-0
      - libatk1.0-0
      - libc6
      - libcairo2
      - libcups2
      - libdbus-1-3
      - libexpat1
      - libfontconfig1
      - libgbm1
      - libgcc1
      - libglib2.0-0
      - libgtk-3-0
      - libnspr4
      - libnss3
      - libpango-1.0-0
      - libpangocairo-1.0-0
      - libstdc++6
      - libx11-6
      - libx11-xcb1
      - libxcb1
      - libxcomposite1
      - libxcursor1
      - libxdamage1
      - libxext6
      - libxfixes3
      - libxi6
      - libxrandr2
      - libxrender1
      - libxss1
      - libxtst6
      - lsb-release
      - wget
      - xdg-utils

That's it! Now you can just run Chromedriver and pass right Chromium executable into Webdriver config:

script:
- bash -c "${CHROMEDRIVER_BINARY} --port=4444 --whitelisted-ips= --url-base=/wd/hub --log-path=/tmp/chromedriver.log --log-level=DEBUG" > /dev/null &

Pay attention

Since this package relies on nightly builds, not all versions of Chromium are available to download. To check the available revisions, please visit Google Chromium Snapshots archive and find appropriate snapshot revision.
