[Feature]: Docker image for Node 22 or change Node from 20 to 22

[lukaselmer]

🚀 Feature Request

Release a Docker image built with Node 22 and describe it's usage here: https://playwright.dev/docs/docker

Example

E.g. docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.46.0-jammy-22, or change the default from 20 to 22.

Motivation

The current docker images https://github.com/microsoft/playwright/tree/main/utils/docker are based on Node 20. With Node 22 LTS around the corner, and with issues / workaround which work only on Node 22 like #23662 (comment), it would be helpful to have a Docker image built with Node 22.

Our docker images are aligned with Node LTS. Marking for 1.47 to track in case Node 22 makes it to LTS.

Note: Node.js 22 will enter long-term support (LTS) in October - until then we'll move this issue forward to the next release.

i found this a great idea - postfix node version ( at least for 1 release )
I.e. having

• mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.48.0-jammy ( with node 20 )
• mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.48.0-jammy-22 ( with node 22 )

moving to mcr.microsoft.com/playwright:v1.49.0-jammy with 22 only

today node 22 was announced to be the current lts version, so it would be awesome to bump the docker images to node 22

Now that this is merged, when will the node 22 image be published to the microsoft artifact registry 🙂 ?

As part of the next Playwright release.
