# puppeteer-extra [![Downloads](https://img.shields.io/endpoint?style=social&url=https://runkit.io/fezvrasta/combined-npm-downloads/1.0.0?packages=puppeteer-extra,puppeteer-extra-plugin,puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth,puppeteer-extra-plugin-recaptcha,puppeteer-extra-plugin-adblocker)](https://github.com/berstend/puppeteer-extra/)

This is the monorepo for [`puppeteer-extra`](./packages/puppeteer-extra), a modular plugin framework for [`puppeteer`](https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer). :-)

🌟 **For the main documentation, please head over to the [`puppeteer-extra`](./packages/puppeteer-extra) package.**

We've also recently introduced support for Playwright, if you're interested in that head over to [`playwright-extra`](./packages/playwright-extra).

## Monorepo

<details>
 <summary><strong>Contributing</strong></summary>

### Contributing

PRs and new plugins are welcome! The plugin API for `puppeteer-extra` is clean and fun to use. Have a look the [`PuppeteerExtraPlugin`](./packages/puppeteer-extra-plugin) base class documentation to get going and check out the [existing plugins](./packages/) (minimal example is the [anonymize-ua](./packages/puppeteer-extra-plugin-anonymize-ua/index.js) plugin) for reference.

We use a [monorepo](https://github.com/berstend/puppeteer-extra) powered by [Lerna](https://github.com/lerna/lerna#--use-workspaces) (and yarn workspaces), [ava](https://github.com/avajs/ava) for testing, the [standard](https://standardjs.com/) style for linting and [JSDoc](http://usejsdoc.org/about-getting-started.html) heavily to auto-generate markdown [documentation](https://github.com/documentationjs/documentation) based on code. :-)

 <summary><strong>Lerna</strong></summary>

### Lerna

This monorepo is powered by [Lerna](https://github.com/lerna/lerna) and yarn workspaces.

#### Initial setup

```bash
# Install deps
yarn

# Bootstrap the packages in the current Lerna repo.
# Installs all of their dependencies and links any cross-dependencies.
yarn bootstrap

# Build all TypeScript sources
yarn build
```

#### Development flow

```bash
# Install debug in all packages
yarn lerna add debug

# Install fs-extra to puppeteer-extra-plugin-user-data-dir
yarn lerna add fs-extra --scope=puppeteer-extra-plugin-user-data-dir

# Remove dependency
# https://github.com/lerna/lerna/issues/833
yarn lerna exec --concurrency 1 'yarn remove fs-extra; echo 0'

# Run test in all packages
yarn test

# Update JSDoc based documentation in markdown files
yarn docs

# Upgrade project wide deps like puppeteer
# (We keep the devDependency version blurry)
rm -rf node_modules
rm -rf yarn.lock
yarn
yarn lerna bootstrap

# Update deps within packages (interactive)
yarn lernaupdate

# If in doubt :-(
yarn lerna exec "rm -f yarn.lock; rm -rf node_modules; echo 0"
rm -f yarn.lock &&  rm -rf node_modules && yarn cache clean

# Run tests of specific package
cd packages/puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth
yarn test

# Run tests of specific stealth evasion
cd packages/puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth
yarn ava -v ./evasions/user-agent-override/index.test.js

# Test a local monorepo package in an outside folder as it would've been installed from the registry
# Change PACKAGE_DIR to the path of this monorepo and PACKAGE to the package you wish to install
PACKAGE=puppeteer-extra PACKAGE_DIR=/Users/foo/puppeteer-extra/packages && yarn remove $(echo $PACKAGE); true && rm -f $(pwd)/$(echo $PACKAGE)-latest.tgz && yarn --cwd $(echo $PACKAGE_DIR)/$(echo $PACKAGE) pack --filename $(pwd)/$(echo $PACKAGE)-latest.tgz && YARN_CACHE_FOLDER=/tmp/yarn yarn add file:$(pwd)/$(echo $PACKAGE)-latest.tgz && rm -rf /tmp/yarn
```

#### Publishing

```bash
# make sure you're signed into npm before publishing
# yarn publishing is broken so lerna uses npm
npm whoami

# ensure everything is up2date and peachy
yarn
yarn bootstrap
yarn lerna link
yarn build
yarn test

# Phew, let's publish these packages!
# - Will publish all changed packages
# - Will ask for new pkg version per package
# - Will updated inter-package dependency versions automatically
yarn lerna publish

# Fix new dependency version symlinks
yarn bootstrap && yarn lerna link
```
