Golang chromedp dockerfile

I have a golang code that uses chromedp to connect to the user's local chrome
here is my code:

package main
import (
"context"
"fmt"
"log"
"os"
"time"
"github.com/chromedp/chromedp"
"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)
func main() {
Api := gin.Default()
Api.GET("api/jwt", func(c *gin.Context) {
opts := append(chromedp.DefaultExecAllocatorOptions[:],
chromedp.Flag("headless", false),
chromedp.Flag("disable-gpu", true),
chromedp.Flag("no-sandbox", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-dev-shm-usage", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-browser-side-navigation", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-infobars", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-extensions", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-notifications", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-default-apps", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-background-timer-throttling", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-backgrounding-occluded-windows", true),
chromedp.Flag("disable-renderer-backgrounding", true),
)
allocCtx, cancel := chromedp.NewExecAllocator(context.Background(), opts...)
defer cancel()
ctx, cancel := chromedp.NewContext(allocCtx)
defer cancel()
var localStorageData string // Declaração da variável localStorageData
err := chromedp.Run(ctx,
chromedp.Navigate("https://csonlinetenant.b2clogin.com/csonlinetenant.onmicrosoft.com/oauth2/v2.0/authorize"),
chromedp.Sleep(5*time.Second),
chromedp.WaitVisible(`#fgh`),
chromedp.SendKeys(`#fghfg`, "fghfgh"),
chromedp.SendKeys(`#xcvxcv`, "xcxcvcxv"),
chromedp.Click(`#thgh`, chromedp.ByID),
chromedp.Sleep(5*time.Second),
chromedp.Click(`dfgd`, chromedp.ByID),
chromedp.Sleep(15*time.Second),
chromedp.EvaluateAsDevTools(`localStorage.getItem('c')`, &localStorageData),
)
if err != nil {
log.Printf("Error: %v", err)
return
}
fmt.Println("Bearer", localStorageData)
// Restante do código...
c.JSON(200, gin.H{
"Success": localStorageData,
})
})
listenAddr := os.Getenv("LISTEN")
if val, ok := os.LookupEnv("FUNCTIONS_CUSTOMHANDLER_PORT"); ok {
listenAddr = ":" + val
}
if listenAddr == "" {
listenAddr = ":8080"
}
Api.Run(listenAddr)
}

so i made a dockerfile which contains what i need for my clients to use this application (i installed chrome and built my golang in the image)

dockerfile:

FROM golang:1.20 AS build-stage
WORKDIR /app
# Instale as dependências do Chrome
RUN wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - \
&& echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install google-chrome-stable
RUN chrome &
COPY go.mod go.sum ./
RUN go mod download
COPY *.go ./
RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 GOOS=linux go build -o /dockergo
# Run the tests in the container
FROM build-stage AS run-test-stage
RUN go test -v ./...
# Deploy the application binary into a lean image
FROM gcr.io/distroless/base-debian11 AS build-release-stage
WORKDIR /
COPY --from=build-stage /dockergo /dockergo
EXPOSE 8080
USER nonroot:nonroot
ENTRYPOINT ["/dockergo"]

the image builds successfully and without a headache
but when testing the docker image in my local I get this error:

 Error: exec: "google-chrome": executable file not found in $PATH

what does this error mean? that my chrome is not running? how can i run it?

The Chrome browser is installed in the build-stage only. It's not available in the final image that is created by the build-release-stage.

I tried to install Chrome with this Dockerfile:

# Deploy the application binary into a lean image
FROM gcr.io/distroless/base-debian11 AS build-release-stage

RUN wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - \
    && echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list
RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install google-chrome-stable
RUN chrome &

But it failed with this message:

...
Step 2/4 : RUN wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add -     && echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list

I think you have to choose another base image on which it is easy to install Chrome. A better alternative is to use chromedp/headless-shell as the base image. This image contains Chrome's headless shell, which is very small. The demo Dockerfile below also shows compiling the test binary first and then run the test in the chromedp/headless-shell image:

FROM golang:1.20.5-buster AS build-stage

WORKDIR /app

COPY go.mod go.sum ./
RUN go mod download

COPY . .

RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 go build -o dockergo
# Build the test binary
RUN CGO_ENABLED=0 go test -c -o dockergo.test

# Run the tests in the container
FROM chromedp/headless-shell:114.0.5735.199 AS run-test-stage

WORKDIR /app
# Copy other files that is needed to run the test (testdata?).
COPY . .
COPY --from=build-stage /app/dockergo.test ./dockergo.test
RUN /app/dockergo.test -test.v

# Deploy the application binary into a lean image
FROM chromedp/headless-shell:114.0.5735.199 AS build-release-stage

COPY --from=build-stage /app/dockergo /dockergo

EXPOSE 8080

ENTRYPOINT ["/dockergo"]
