Other container web service auto detection not working
The auto detection of another container's web ports does not seem to be working, at least as described in the README. Here is a minimal reproduction:
version: '2'
volumes:
settings:
services:
browser:
restart: always
image: bh.cr/balenalabs/browser-aarch64
privileged: true
volumes:
- 'settings:/data'
ports:
- '5011' # management API (optional)
web:
restart: always
image: nginx:1.25.2
ports:
- '80'
-
When starting, it will output:
[Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.869Z] [browser] LAUNCH_URL environment variable not set. [Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.871Z] [browser] Looking for local HTTP/S services. [Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.876Z] [browser] No service found on port 80 [Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.881Z] [browser] No service found on port 443 [Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.886Z] [browser] No service found on port 8080 [Logs] [2023-10-03T00:26:12.887Z] [browser] Displaying default HTML page

If you force it to load
web
via the API, it will work fine:ADDRESS=`sudo balena scan --json | jq -r '.[0].address'` curl --data "url=web" http://$ADDRESS:5011/url
This will show the "welcome to nginx" page on the device
-
If you tell it to re-scan via the API, it still won't find the local container.
curl -X POST http://$ADDRESS:5011/scan

but if you manually specify
LAUNCH_URL
to the other container...services: browser: environment: LAUNCH_URL: http://web
... it works:
