I am trying to open a page using puppeteer headless. However, puppeteer.launch is taking extremely long and the process isn't able to finish. Code:
const puppeteer = require("puppeteer");
async function getVisual() {
try {
const URL =
"https://www.bannerbear.com/blog/ways-to-speed-up-puppeteer-screenshots/";
const browser = await puppeteer.launch((headless = true), {
ignoreDefaultArgs: ["--disable-extensions"],
timeout: 3000,
});
const page = await browser.newPage();
console.log("hi");
await page.goto(url);
await page.screenshot({ path: "screenshot.png" });
await page.pdf({ path: "page.pdf" });
await browser.close();
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
}
getVisual();
CodePudding user response:
In your puppeteer.launch()
statement, you need to put those parameters in a single object.
Remove the "(headless = true)", and put it as a new item in the object. Like puppeteer.launch({headless: true, ignoreDefaultArgs: [], timeout: 3000})
...
The documentation states how to use parameters here.
