Thanks @varyonic - nice to have this in a gist instead of digging around in my shell history to get the install lines and populate the Dockerfile myself.

@ikotun-dev

If you somehow have docker running directly on the M1 mac, you may run into compatibility issues with the other software the dockerfile is trying to use/obtain, even if you change all the chrome/chromedriver references to use mac-arm64. I didn't attempt it myself, and went with a VM.

If you are running through a VM, your dockerfile should match the architecture of the VM. I had trouble trying to use an arm64 linux VM and changing the dockerfile to match (there is not a "non mac" arm64 chrome/chromedriver), but did have success with an x86 VM on the M1 by installing lima. The dockerfile for linux64 mentioned here worked fine for that.

This is really good work, however update

Set up Chromedriver Environment variables

ENV CHROMEDRIVER_DIR /opt/chromedriver
ENV PATH $CHROMEDRIVER_DIR:$PATH

to:

Set up Chromedriver Environment variables

ENV CHROMEDRIVER_DIR=/opt/chromedriver
ENV PATH=$CHROMEDRIVER_DIR:$PATH

and it works.

Thank you so much @ankitarya1019

This is really good work, however update

Set up Chromedriver Environment variables

ENV CHROMEDRIVER_DIR /opt/chromedriver
ENV PATH $CHROMEDRIVER_DIR:$PATH

to:

Set up Chromedriver Environment variables

ENV CHROMEDRIVER_DIR=/opt/chromedriver
ENV PATH=$CHROMEDRIVER_DIR:$PATH

and it works.

Thank you so much @ankitarya1019

For posterity: the Dockerfile in the comment above mine didn't work for me on a Mac M2 chip, so with the liberal help of ChatGPT I was able to find one that works by just apt-installing chromium and chromedriver:

# Debian-based Python image (multi-arch)
FROM python:3.10-slim-bullseye

ENV DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive

# Install Chromium, ChromeDriver, and any needed libs
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \ 
    chromium chromium-driver \ 
    libgl1-mesa-glx \ 
    libglib2.0-0 libnss3 libx11-6 libxcb1 libxcomposite1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 \ 
    libxext6 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxtst6 libatk1.0-0 libatk-bridge2.0-0 libcups2 \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

WORKDIR /usr/src/app

COPY . .

# python dependencies
RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt

# We expect the user to volume-mount the file into place and buffering can be a 
# problem, so use unbuffered mode for reading the input.csv
ENV PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1

# NOTE: depends on a /tmp/input.csv existing
# ENV CHROMEDRIVER_PATH=$CHROMEDRIVER_DIR
ENTRYPOINT [ "python", "./calculate.py" ]

Attaching ChatGPT's reasoning in case it's useful:

Thanks @mieubrisse.

If you need to run chrome in headless mode, this config is enough:

# Install Chromium, ChromeDriver, and minimal dependencies for headless mode
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
    chromium chromium-driver \
    && rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

Also, I don't think you need to install all of that dependencies manually, they are downloaded and installed automatically:

Here's the log of my app deploy with the config above:
