bookcovers's Issues

Smoke Test Failing

It looks like the smoke test is failing for amazing. The test still succeeds locally, so this is probably an issue with Amazon blocking Github actions IP. Not sure how to fix this if that is the case. But first thing first is to confirm.

Puppeteer Error in React App

Attempted to use this library in a React app but I get this error in the browser:

./node_modules/puppeteer/lib/WebSocketTransport.js
Module not found: Can't resolve 'ws' in '.../node_modules/puppeteer/lib'

Repo name

Recommend renaming repository to "bookcovers" to match npm package.
