Puppeteer is a Node.js library which provides a high-level API to control Chrome/Chromium over the DevTools Protocol. Puppeteer runs in headless mode on Chromium on Pipedream.
Using Puppeteer you can perform tasks including:
import { puppeteer } from '@pipedream/browsers';
export default defineComponent({
async run({steps, $}) {
const browser = await puppeteer.browser();
// Interact with the web page programmatically
// See Puppeeter's Page documentation for available methods:
// https://pptr.dev/api/puppeteer.page
const page = await browser.newPage();
await page.goto('https://pipedream.com/');
const title = await page.title();
const content = await page.content();
// The browser needs to be closed, otherwise the step will hang
await browser.close();
return { title, content }
},
})
