[Feature]: LaunchServer #495

Open memUsins opened 1 week ago

Hi!

I have been using the playwright library for a while, because I may not know everything about it and its capabilities yet.

In the documentation for the Node JS library, I found the functionality I needed: LaunchServer (link to the documentation: https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsertype#browser-type-launch-server ), but in this implementation on go, I did not see anything like that.

Is there any similar functionality and, if so, how to use it? If it doesn't exist, what other workarounds are there to achieve a similar goal?

I'll explain what I need.: I am developing a microservice that should "host" browsers, giving out addresses for connection. While other microservices will go to these browsers and work with them remotely via a ws connection.

Hello 👋!
I have recently been utilizing playwright-go, and upon reading your question, it occurred to me that the ExposeNetwork argument might be employed to connect to the remote browser instance? BrowserTypeConnectOptions
