Chromium Remote Debugging

[borderBite]

Has anyone gotten chromium remote debugging to work? I haven't had any luck.

I'm using an rpi3 device
The port debug is open and exposed publicly on the device:

I can successfully connect to the other container on 8080.

Not sure what else I could be missing.

@nslocum I have used it during testing, so I know it did once work. I'll run it up again tomorrow and let you know if and how I did it.

Thanks for reaching out, it prompts me to document how to use it. 😊

I solved this by setting up an SSH tunnel on my local machine: ssh -p 22222 -L 35173:localhost:35173 <balena user>@<device ip>. You can get your username with balena whoami. You have to run the browser container with network_mode: host.

Then add localhost:35173 to chrome://inspect/#devices and you should be able to inspect/control the browser tabs.
