with Helium (Console) and Browserless?
The Helium (Console) API serves as a gateway to the Helium network, a decentralized blockchain network for IoT devices. It enables you to interact with the network by fetching device data, managing hotspots, and tracking sensor activity. With Pipedream, you can automate workflows that respond to this data in real-time. This allows for the creation of complex IoT applications, such as automated alerts, data analysis, and integration with other services for enhanced functionality.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
helium: {
type: "app",
app: "helium",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://console.helium.com/api/v1/devices`,
headers: {
"key": `${this.helium.$auth.api_key}`,
},
})
},
})
The Browserless API on Pipedream allows you to automate browser actions without the overhead of managing your own browser infrastructure. This service provides a way to run Chrome browser sessions programmatically, making it ideal for web scraping, automated testing, and screenshot capture. Leveraging this on Pipedream, you can create serverless workflows that interact with web pages, extract data, and perform actions as a human would, all in a scalable and efficient manner.
import puppeteer from 'puppeteer-core@14.1.0';
export default defineComponent({
props: {
browserless: {
type: "app",
app: "browserless",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
// See the browserless docs for more info:
// https://www.browserless.io/docs/
const browser = await puppeteer.connect({
browserWSEndpoint: `wss://chrome.browserless.io?token=${this.browserless.$auth.api_key}`
})
const page = await browser.newPage()
const url = "https://example.com"
const type = "png"
await page.goto(url)
const screenshot = await page.screenshot()
// export the base64-encoded screenshot for use in future steps,
// along with the image type and filename
$.export("screenshot", Buffer.from(screenshot, 'binary').toString('base64'))
$.export("type", type)
$.export("filename",`${url.replace(/[&\/\\#, +()$~%.'":*?<>{}]/g, '_')}-${+new Date()}.${type}`)
await browser.close()
},
})
