puppeteer 1.12.x

[Meekohi]

Hey, anyone know what's involved in getting a new binary that will work with puppeteer 1.12? I checked out https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda but wasn't quite clear what the strategy would be to generate the actual binary to swap in.

This solution works greatly with layers. Thanks to the creator. Im just using it with puppeteer-core instead of puppeteer for excluding the binary. Would also like to know how to build a headless_shell file for puppeteer. Thanks in advance

Same here @RafalWilinski, would love to know how to update headless_shell 👍

First extract the binary as described here https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda#aws-lambda-layer

Basically this command

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda.git && \
cd chrome-aws-lambda && \
brotli --decompress --rm bin/chromium-*.br && \
npm pack && \
mkdir -p nodejs/node_modules/chrome-aws-lambda/ && \
tar --directory nodejs/node_modules/chrome-aws-lambda/ --extract --file chrome-aws-lambda-*.tgz --strip-components=1 && \
rm chrome-aws-lambda-*.tgz

then copy the file inside the bin directory into the layers directory like this:

cp [chrome-aws-lambda directory]/bin/chromium-74.0.3723.0 [serverless-puppeteer-layers directory]/layer/headless_shell

This should also fix any internal server errors too.. hth!

Hi @san-kumar can you please try to do a new PR with the last version of Chromium? Thanks

Maybe @RafalWilinski can help us with the project...
