Hello, I`m try to use html2image in Android apk and have error with rights to use '/tmp' folder. Could you add temp_dir for Android?

vgalin commented 3 months ago

Hello, are you trying to use the package or the CLI ?

If you're using the package, you can use the temp_path parameter like so :

from html2image import Html2Image
hti = Html2Image(temp_path='/your/path/')
...

Thanks I try to use

from html2image import Html2Image
hti = Html2Image(temp_path='/cache/')
...

And get another error on Android:

In this Android I have Chrome Browser

I see. html2image needs a browser executable that can be used in headless mode to take screenshots. I could be mistaken, but I don't this this is possible with a classic install of a Chrome apk. It may be doable if you install the desktop (and not mobile) version of Chrome/Chromium via command line, but I don't know if it is possible.

If this could work at Android it will be great
