⁠What is PhantomJS

PhantomJS⁠ is a headless WebKit browser, often used via WebDriver⁠ for web system testing. It's based on WebKit, runs JavaScript, and allows to take screenshots.

⁠Features of this image

This Dockerized⁠ version of PhantomJS is:

• Small: Using Debian image⁠ (below 100 MB, while Ubuntu is about 230 MB), and removing packages used during build.
• Simple: Exposes default port, easy to extend.
• Secure: Runs as non-root UID/GID 52379 (selected randomly to avoid mapping to an existing user) and uses dumb-init⁠ to reap zombie processes.

⁠Usage

⁠JavaScript interactive shell

Start PhantomJS in REPL⁠:

$ docker run -it --rm wernight/phantomjs
>

      DesiredCapabilities.phantomjs());
  

  Copy

• Python (after running $ pip install selenium⁠):

  from selenium import webdriver
  from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
  
  driver = webdriver.Remote(
      command_executor='http://127.0.0.1:8910',
      desired_capabilities=DesiredCapabilities.PHANTOMJS)
