Lyo.Web.Automation.PuppeteerSharp

PuppeteerSharp backend for the Lyo.Web.Automation abstractions. It launches Chrome, Chromium, Edge, or Firefox, owns a session-scoped browser context, and exposes the same tab, frame, dialog, keyboard, and locator helpers as Lyo.Web.Automation.Playwright so JSON automation plans behave the same on this engine. WebKit is rejected. This package does not reference Lyo.Http.Client or Lyo.Web.WebRenderer and does not download a browser.

Features

  • PuppeteerSharpBrowser. Concrete IWebAutomationBrowser. StartBrowserAsync launches BrowserKind from BrowserExePath or AutomationBrowserDetector and opens one page in a browser context.
  • PuppeteerSharpTabManager / PuppeteerSharpBrowserTabInfo. Engine-native tab info. Portable tab switching stays on IWebAutomationTabs.
  • PuppeteerSharpWebAutomationElement and PuppeteerSharpLocatorFactory. Map ElementLocator (id, name, css, xpath, link text, class, tag) onto Puppeteer selectors.
  • Cloudflare handoff is host-owned. Copy the solver user-agent onto UserAgents, ProxyUrl onto the context, and cookies onto CookieJar. This package does not reference Lyo.Http.Client.

Examples

First steps

services.AddPuppeteerSharpBrowserServiceFromConfiguration(builder.Configuration);

var service = sp.GetRequiredService<IPuppeteerSharpBrowserService>();
using var session = service.CreateSession();
await session.StartBrowserAsync();
await session.Browser.NavigateAsync("https://example.com");

Service layer (Service/)

  • IPuppeteerSharpBrowserService. CreateSession() clones service options. CreateSession(Action<PuppeteerSharpBrowserOptions>) overlays that clone. CreateSession(new PuppeteerSharpSessionOptions()) replaces it. ActiveSessionCount, Dispose.
  • IPuppeteerSharpBrowserSession. Session scope. Tabs is PuppeteerSharpTabManager.
  • AddPuppeteerSharpBrowser, AddPuppeteerSharpBrowserService, and AddPuppeteerSharpBrowserServiceFromConfiguration. The options-instance overloads call Validate().

Settings (Configuration/PuppeteerSharpBrowserOptions.cs)

Property Default Notes
BrowserKind Chrome AutomationBrowserKind: Chrome, Chromium, Edge, Firefox. WebKit is rejected. Firefox drops Chromium launch-arg defaults.
BrowserExePath null When empty, launch uses AutomationBrowserDetector for BrowserKind (that browser's env vars, then BROWSER_PATH and PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH, then install paths). An explicit path wins. Launch throws when the file is missing. No browser download.
Headless false Launch headless when true.
ServiceRootDirectory {tmp}/lyo-puppeteersharp Each session creates session-{id}/ with browser-profile/, artifacts/, and downloads/.
LaunchArguments Chromium defaults including --no-sandbox Every entry must start with -. ResolveLaunchArguments adds --window-size for Chrome, Chromium, and Edge. Firefox omits those defaults and --window-size.
ViewportWidth / ViewportHeight 1920 × 1080 CSS viewport. ApplySessionViewport can randomize from ViewportSizes.
NavigationWaitUntil DOMContentLoaded Puppeteer waitUntil for goto and reload.
NavigationTimeoutMs 30000 Navigation timeout.
LocatorDefaultTimeoutMs 30000 Element wait used by each poll attempt.
EnableMetrics true Records lyo.webautomation.puppeteersharp.* when an IMetrics is registered.
