Cannot get chromic_pdf to run in prod environment
We have been stuck on this for a few days now and I am really not sure what could be missing. I can get chromic_pdf to work perfectly fine on my dev environment. I.e. it can render and store PDFs from HTML without any issue.In terms of setting it up:
mix.exs:
{:chromic_pdf, "~> 1.17"}
runtime.exs
config :tailboard, :pdf, url: System.fetch_env!("APP_URL")
config :chromic_pdf,
chrome_executable: System.get_env("CHROME_PATH"),
discard_stderr: false,
chrome_args: [
"--no-sandbox",
"--disable-dev-shm-usage",
"--disable-gpu",
"--disable-setuid-sandbox",
"--disable-software-rasterizer",
"--enable-logging=stderr",
"--headless"
],
log_level: :info,
temp_dir: "/tmp/app"
application.exs
def start(_type, _args) do
TailboardWeb.AllowedAddressList.start()
# Define workers and child supervisors to be supervised
children = [
...other modules
ChromicPDF
]
# See https://hexdocs.pm/elixir/Supervisor.html
# for other strategies and supported options
opts = [strategy: :one_for_one, name: Tailboard.Supervisor]
Supervisor.start_link(children, opts)
end
In Dockerfile I get these dependencies:
RUN apt-get update -y && \
apt-get install -y \
libstdc++6 openssl libncurses5 locales ca-certificates chromium \
libnss3 libfreetype6 libharfbuzz0b fonts-freefont-ttf imagemagick \
tini fontconfig curl \
&& apt-get clean && rm -f /var/lib/apt/lists/*_*
Is there anything I am missing?

Are you running Google Chrome rather than Chromium on your dev machine? Google Chrome is run from a different directory and started with a different command (“chrome” vs “chromium-browser”), which may be causing the issues in your container.
