dockselpy
Dockerfile example on how to "assemble" together Selenium (with support for Chrome, Firefox and PhantomJS), Python and Xfvb.
Information
Recent struggle with finding a docker image for Selenium that supports headless versions for both Firefox and Chrome, led to the process of building my own version.
The image is build with the following dependencies:
- latest Chrome and chromedriver
- latest Firefox and geckodriver
- latest stable PhantomJS webkit (v2.1.1)
- Selenium
- Python 3
- Xvfb and the python wrapper - pyvirtualdisplay
Running:
-
docker
docker build -t selenium_docker . docker run --privileged -p 4000:4000 -d -it selenium_docker -
docker-compose
docker-compose stop && docker-compose build && docker-compose up -d
Example
from pyvirtualdisplay import Display
from selenium import webdriver
display = Display(visible=0, size=(800, 600))
display.start()
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('https://www.google.com/')
print(browser.title)
browser.quit()
display.stop()Detailed examples on how to use Firefox with custom profile, Google Chrome with desired options or PhantomJS can be found in the source.
