Firefox in a Docker Container

This is my project for running in a container.

Getting sound from the container using Pulse

Step 1: Create socket

pactl load-module module-native-protocol-unix socket=/tmp/pulseaudio.socket

Step 2: Create client config file /tmp/pulseaudio.client.conf with contents

default-server = unix:/tmp/pulseaudio.socket
# Prevent a server running in the container
autospawn = no
daemon-binary = /bin/true
# Prevent the use of shared memory
enable-shm = false

Step 3: Now run make up and your firefox container should start running

Tabs contantly crashing

You can disable multi-process windows in Firefox by setting these prefs to false on the about:config page.

browser.tabs.remote.autostart = false
