Playwright Screenshot Construct for AWS CDK

This AWS CDK construct provides a simple way to create a screenshot of a URL using Chromium and Playwright on AWS Lambda. With this construct, you can easily integrate screenshotting functionality into your AWS-based applications.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• AWS CDK version 2.x
• Node.js 14.x or higher
• AWS account with necessary permissions

Usage

Importing the Construct

1. In your AWS CDK project, import the PlaywrightScreenshot construct:

import { ScreenshotLib } from '@chromium-for-lambda/playwright-screenshot';

Creating the Construct

1. Create a new instance of the ScreenshotLib construct:

const screenshotConstruct = new ScreenshotLib(this, 'ScreenshotLib');

Synthesizing and Deploying

1. Synthesize the construct to create the necessary AWS resources:

cdk synth

2. Deploy the construct to AWS:

cdk deploy

Using the Screenshot Function

Once the construct is deployed, you can call the Lambda function to create a screenshot of a URL. To do this, use the ?url= query parameter to specify the URL you want to screenshot:

https://your-lambda-function-url.com/?url=https://example.com

The Lambda function will create a screenshot of the specified URL and store it in the specified screenshot bucket.
