Provide args to Chrome about secret-agent HOT 11 CLOSED

Hi @trnj,

Thanks for saying that! This is something we definitely need to do. I think we'll probably add an option to initialize a browser emulator with extra args. Or maybe we just need an ability to add --no-sandbox globally. Is that the only option you foresee needing?

Unable to lauch it on windows without --no-sandbox.

Currently, I use the following in Puppeteer.

     "--disable-gpu",
                "--disable-dev-shm-usage",
                "--no-sandbox",

              '--window-size=1600,900',
               '--start-maximized',

                '--disable-web-security', 
              '--silent-debugger-extension-api',  

                '--allow-running-insecure-content',
                '--disable-strict-mixed-content-checking',
                '--ignore-certificate-errors',

Also, is it possible to take screenshots? Sometimes it is useful. Also, I need it for OCR.

And I would like to bypass multiple bot test like https://pixelscan.net/ https://bot.sannysoft.com

There are some problems like, when I change IP or proxy, I need to set correct timezone for the new IP in order to bypass bot tests. Would be great to have it out of the box.

 const fetch = require('cross-fetch');
let info = await (await fetch('https://ipinfo.io/json')).json();
await page.emulateTimezone(info.timezone);

Also, I set webgl vendors.

Another important point is the correct Screen resolution and Available screen size (it should be smaller).

Excellent feedback, @trnj. Those features are definitely needed.

Another useful feature is mouse moves, key up, down, clicks. Puppeteer has a problem with clicks. If the element is hovered, or replaced by React frequently, then click does not work. Some bot protection services collect clicks, mouse moves.

Thank you. Is it possible to click an element if it is hovered by another element?

from secret-agent.

@trnj Do you have a page or example with the react hover? Would love to add a unit test. For not being able to launch on Windows, what version are you using? Our CI is passing on Windows Server, and I've been able to launch on a Windows 10 VM fine.

Are you running your own custom chrome instance as well? Or the one packaged with the secret-agent chrome-83 emulator plugin?

from secret-agent.

I get the following.

ERROR UnhandledClientError {
   clientError: Error: Failed to launch the browser process! spawn C:\Users\Home\AppData\Local\chromium-756035\win64-756035\chrome-win\chrome.exe ENOENT

Also, tried and got blocked immediately.

For example,
https://www.expertflyer.com - distil, blocked
https://www.leboncoin.fr/ - another bot protection, but unable to open the website.

@trnj, we'll look into both of these issues and get back to you.
