This work have been strongly influenced by the following repo: https://github.com/sytone/obsidian-remote
All versions of Cursor for x64 and arm64 architectures from 0.47.7 are now available ! We stopped versioning in Docker Hub and ghcr.io since 1.7.52 cursor version. Latest version is always based on the last version of Cursor.
Cursor versions with all required files are available under cursor_versions folder. The Dockerfile and Dockerfile.arm64 on the root directory are always related to the latest version using an API call to cursor latest download.
You can use GitHub Container Registry (ghcr) or Docker Hub to download the image, if you prefer to rebuild the image you may also clone the repo and build the image yourself.
• Maintained by:
L'Arfo, you can reach me here : arfo_dublo@boards.digital
• Where to get the image:
Docker Hub : https://hub.docker.com/r/arfodublo/cursor-in-browser
GitHub Container Registry (ghcr) : https://ghcr.io/arfo-du-blo/cursor-in-browser
• Quick run :
Using Docker Hub :
docker run -d \
-v your_path_to/cursor:/cursor \
-v your_path_to/config:/config \
-p 8050:8080 \
-e CUSTOM_USER=cursor_user \
-e PASSWORD=cursor_password \
arfodublo/cursor-in-browser:latest-x64
Using Github (ghcr.io) :
docker run -d \
-v your_path_to/cursor:/cursor \
-v your_path_to/config:/config \
-p 8050:8080 \
-e CUSTOM_USER=cursor_user \
-e PASSWORD=cursor_password \
ghcr.io/arfo-du-blo/cursor-in-browser:latest-x64
• Volumes :
- /config : Configuration files for Cursor.
- /cursor : Cursor data files.
docker run -d \
-v /home/user/cursor-in-browser/config:/config/.config/Cursor \ # Will map your Cursor configuration files in the host system
-p 8050:8080 \
-e CUSTOM_USER=cursor_user \
-e PASSWORD=cursor_password \
arfodublo/cursor-in-browser:latest-x64
You can replace the :latest-x64 tag (latest version for AMD processors) by the version and architecture you need (for example replace :latest-x64 by :latest-arm64 if working on ARM CPU or :1.2.3-x64 / :1.2.3-arm64 if you need a specific version).
• Important notes :
-
Some buttons, such as Log in, cannot be clicked directly from the UI due to browser sandbox restrictions. When you try to open an external link, a popup will now appear showing you the URL—just copy it (Ctrl+C) from the dialog and paste it into a new browser tab to continue (for example, to complete log in on the official Cursor website).
-
If you closed Cursor you will be redirected to a black screen. To reopen Cursor right click on this screen a menu will appear with Cursor icon and name. You can simply click on it to open it back.
