🆕 Recent update made chrome the running USER. Chrome profile must be owned by user chrome so you may need to run docker exec --volumes-from <your-chrome-profile> --user root siomiz/chrome chown -R chrome:chrome /home/chrome to fix permission issues.

docker run -p 127.0.0.1:5900:5900 siomiz/chrome

• Google Chrome, not Chromium, for the ease of Flash plugin management
• on Xvfb, with FluxBox (no window decorations)
• served by X11VNC (no password; assuming usage via SSH)

Must agree to Google Chrome ToS to use.

You need a VNC client for the initial setup.

1. docker run -d --name chrome-profile siomiz/chrome (NO password so DO NOT simply use -p 5900:5900 to expose it to the world!)
2. Connect to the container via VNC. Find the container's IP address by docker inspect -f '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' chrome-profile
3. Install the "Chrome Remote Desktop" Chrome extension via VNC and activate it, authorize it, and My Computers > Enable Remote Connections, then set a PIN. (Google Account required)
4. docker stop chrome-profile

(Technically the only config file CRD uses is /home/chrome/.config/chrome-remote-desktop/~host.json which includes OAuth token and private key.)

docker run -d --volumes-from chrome-profile siomiz/chrome /crdonly (no port needs to be exposed) /crdonly command will run chrome-remote-desktop in foreground.

It is recommended to docker pull siomiz/chrome and restart the container once in a while to update chrome & crd inside (they will not get automatically updated). Optionally you can run docker exec --user=root <chrome-container> update to upgrade only google-chrome-stable from outside the container (exit Chrome inside CRD after upgrading).
