I would highly recommend using Browserless, using it means you don't have to install Chrome and all of its needed dependencies into your container or deal with any of the issues involved in that, and this will significantly speed up both the build and the publishing stage.

Browserless template here - https://railway.app/template/browserless

And here's an example repo that shows you how to use Browserless with Selenium - https://github.com/brody192/selenium-example

Hi, i have a very very simple selenium task as well, and I don't want to install a whole separate template for my python fast api deployment. Is there a way to get up and running with my existing deployment so that selenium works?

I'm sorry but we would only be able to provide support for the template here.

Please give it a try.

Ok, sure. Would you be able to walk me through the basic steps for spinning this up with my custom code (i have a simple python function that is going to be an endpoint)?

1. deploy the browserless on Railway
2. how do i get my python code into my deployment? (i.e. do i create a new github repo and fork something?)

Can you open your own thread for that, this is someone else's thread after all.
