This patch:
- changes `browser.close` to terminate browser.
- introduces new `browser.disconnect` to disconnect from a browser without closing it
This patch: fixes#918, fixes#989
BREAKING CHANGE:
`browser.close()` will always close a browser, even if it was initialized with
`puppeteer.connect`. To disconnect from a remote browser, use `browser.disconnect()` instead.
This patch:
- introduces `helper.promisify` - a simple polyfill for the `util.promisify`. The
`util.promisify` could not be used due to Node6 compatibility issues.
- migrates all sync filesystem operations to the async replicas
Fixes#884.
This patch starts using typescript to lint JSDoc annotations.
Note: this uses typescript's bleeding edge. We should migrate to stable once
it has all the necessary bugfixes.

This patch starts using taskkill program on windows to gracefully
terminate chrome.
Note: this slows down chrome shutdown on Windows in case of using
custom userDataDir. This is because chrome takes some time to shutdown
its operations and leave profile directory in a consistent state.
Fixes#839.
This patch rolls chromium to r503964.
Note: since the plznavigate is not supported by puppeteer right now, the
patch also starts passing the `--disable-browser-side-navigation` flag.
This is a temporary work around for us.
References #877.
This patch:
- makes `browser.close()` return a promise that resolves when browser gets closed
- starts closing chrome gracefully if a custom `userDataDir` is supplied
Fixes#527
It's very bad to have 'unhandled promise rejection' that can't be
handled in user code. These errors will exit node process in a near
future.
This patch avoids 'unhandled promise rejection' while sending protocol
messages.
This patch:
- introduces `puppeteer:error` debug scope and starts using it for all
swalloed errors.
- makes sure that every `client.send` method is either awaited or its
errors are handled.
- starts return promises from Request.continue() and Request.abort().
- starts swallow errors from Request.contine() and Request.abort().
The last is the most important part of the patch. Since
`Request.continue()` might try to continue canceled request, we should
disregard the error.
Fixes#627.
This patch rolls chromium to r496140. This includes the r496130 that
introduces multiple sessions for single target.
With this patch, it is possible to run puppeteer in headful mode
and open devtools over the automated pages without puppeteer losing
connection to the page.
This patch:
- adds a 'timeout' launcher option that constrains the time for chromium to launch.
- adds a 'handleSIGINT' launcher option that is `true` by default and that closes chrome instance
Fixes#363.
Fail gracefully when chromium failed to download
This patch changes both install.js and Launcher.js to inform how
chromium could be downloaded manually.
This patch:
- refactors Connection to use a single remote debugging URL instead of a
pair of port and browserTargetId
- introduces Puppeteer.connect() method to attach to already running
browser instance.
Fixes#238.
This patch:
- split browser launching logic from Browser into `lib/Launcher.js`
- introduce `puppeteer` namespace which currently has a single `launch`
method to start a browser
With this patch, the browser is no longer created with the `new
Browser(..)` command. Instead, it should be "launched" via the
`puppeteer.launch` method:
```js
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
puppeteer.launch().then(async browser => {
...
});
```
With this approach browser instance lifetime matches the lifetime of
actual browser process. This helps us:
- remove proxy streams, e.g. browser.stderr and browser.stdout
- cleanup browser class and make it possible to connect to remote
browser
- introduce events on the browser instance, e.g. 'page' event. In case
of lazy-launching browser, we should've launch browser when an event
listener is added, which is unneded comlpexity.
