path to chromium executable? #51

Closed jeffehobbs closed 1 year ago

I'm using this layer in the context of pyppeteer and things are a bit different there. What's the absolute path to the chromium binary while using this layer?

There actually isn't one at first. When the include Node module's chromium.executablePath() is called the required files are decompressed and placed into /tmp. After that, the path will be /tmp/chromium. If you want to access this from something other than NodeJs you'll have to replicate that behavior (I'm currently considering jumping through these hoops with Java).

Thanks, this makes sense. Maybe I'll try to reverse engineer that function for python. Thanks for the tip!
