docker-images

Docker Images Including AskUI Components.

The images are published to the Docker Hub registry at askui Docker Registry.

They contain the AskUI UiController/Remote Device Controller that listens on port 6769 and a chrome browser/Android emulator. You have to configure the uiControllerUrl in your UiControlClient initialization in askui-helper.ts as described in our docs to connect to it.

❗️ The images currently can NOT be successfully run on Apple Silicon!

Tag Naming Schema

We use the following tag schema:

<controller-version>-<browser-name>-<browser-version>-amd64

# browser-name: chrome only for now

# Example
0.11.2-chrome-119.0.6045.123-amd64

❗️ <controller-version> is NOT the AskUI version ❗️
