Support Puppeteer-Sharp in a Windows Docker

Description

I am not able to run Puppeteer Sharp in a Windows docker container on my machine. Though I have tried it on some other machines on which it is working.

Complete minimal example reproducing the issue

            var options = new LaunchOptions
            {
                Headless = true
            };

            Console.WriteLine("Downloading chromium");
            await Downloader.CreateDefault().DownloadRevisionAsync(Downloader.DefaultRevision);

            Console.WriteLine("Navigating google");
            using (var browser = await Puppeteer.LaunchAsync(options, Downloader.DefaultRevision))
            using (var page = await browser.NewPageAsync())
            {
                await page.GoToAsync("http://www.google.com");

                Console.WriteLine("Generating PDF");
                await page.PdfAsync(Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "google.pdf"));

                Console.WriteLine("Export completed");
                Console.ReadLine();
            }

Expected behavior:

No errors .

Actual behavior:

Downloading chromium
Navigating google

@respel Any guidance on how you managed to get it to work in a windows docker container? I’m getting “Failed to launch chrome” when running in docker.

I’m still having issues on windows containers. I switched from using nanoserver to servercore and got passed the “Puppeteer fail to launch” but I’m now stuck on another problem. I can launch a browser and add new pages but I am stuck at goToAsync. If I for exaple go to google.com I get “Navigation failed because browser has disconnected!”. I have tried about 5 urls and all but a very simple one, http://vecka.nu, throws the exception. It feels like it is a problem with the server build or that some dependencies are missing but I have no idea how to go forward.

I tried running the same program in a linux container and it worked perfectly. However, I’m not sure if we can use linux containers so my preferred choice would be to have a working windows container with puppeteer sharp
