Download this Container Image

For those with access, this container image is available on cgr.dev:

docker pull cgr.dev/ORGANIZATION/gotenberg:latest

Be sure to replace the ORGANIZATION placeholder with the name used for your organization's private repository within the Chainguard Registry.

Compatibility Notes

Chainguard's Gotenberg image is comparable to the 'gotenberg/gotenberg' image on Docker Hub. Unlike the Gotenberg image on Docker Hub, Chainguard's image uses a UID/GID of 65532 instead of 1001 and runs as the user nonroot instead of gotenberg. Chainguard's image contains only the minimum set of dependencies and tools needed to function.

Getting Started

Docker

Getting started with Gotenberg is as easy as running Chainguard's image with Docker:

docker run --rm -p 3000:3000 cgr.dev/ORGANIZATION/gotenberg:latest

The Gotenberg API should now be availble over localhost:3000.

Helm

Alternatively, an unofficial Helm chart for Gotenberg is actively maintained here.

To deploy Gotenberg with Helm, add the repository:

helm repo add maikumori https://maikumori.github.io/helm-charts
helm repo update

Create a values manifest:

image:
  repository: cgr.dev/ORGANIZATION/gotenberg
  tag: latest
securityContext:
  readOnlyRootFilesystem: false
  allowPrivilegeEscalation: false
  privileged: false
  runAsUser: 65532

Then install the chart:

helm install gotenberg --namespace gotenberg maikumori/gotenberg --values ./values.yaml

Optionally port forward the API:

kubectl port-forward svc/gotenberg 3000:80 &

The Gotenberg API should now be availble over localhost:3000.

You should now be up and running with Gotenberg! For additional information on getting started with Gotenberg, consult the official Getting Started guide.

What are Chainguard Containers?

Chainguard Containers are minimal container images that are secure by default.

In many cases, the Chainguard Containers tagged as :latest contain only an open-source application and its runtime dependencies. These minimal container images typically do not contain a shell or package manager. Chainguard Containers are built with Wolfi, our Linux undistro designed to produce container images that meet the requirements of a more secure software supply chain.

The main features of Chainguard Containers include:

• Minimal design, without unnecessary software bloat
• Daily builds to ensure container images are up-to-date with available security patches
• High quality build-time SBOMs attesting to the provenance of all artifacts within the image
• Verifiable signatures provided by Sigstore
• Reproducible builds with Cosign and apko (read more about reproducibility)

For cases where you need container images with shells and package managers to build or debug, most Chainguard Containers come paired with a -dev variant.

Although the -dev container image variants have similar security features as their more minimal versions, they feature additional software that is typically not necessary in production environments. We recommend using multi-stage builds to leverage the -dev variants, copying application artifacts into a final minimal container that offers a reduced attack surface that won’t allow package installations or logins.
