This is a repackaged open-source software that spins up a remote Chrome instance. Additional charges apply for support for this virtual machine.

Remote Puppeteer and Playwright script execution

Launch a virtual machine with Chrome preinstalled and configured for remote browser automation using Puppeteer and Playwright. This VM includes a preconfigured environment with a reverse proxy, making Chrome accessible on port 9222 for remote debugging and automation. The virtual machine runs a headless Chrome instance, accessible via on the public IPv4 address on port 9222, allowing you to connect remotely using Puppeteer or Playwright. This setup enables seamless browser automation, web scraping, and testing without the need for a local Chrome installation.

Easy Usage

Example Puppeteer in Node.js:

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {

try {

const ipAddress = '';

const response = await fetch('http://' + ipAddress + ':9222/json/version');

const data = await response.json();

let wsEndpoint = data.webSocketDebuggerUrl;

wsEndpoint = wsEndpoint.replace('/devtools', ':9222/devtools');

console.log('Connecting to WebSocket:', wsEndpoint);

const browser = await puppeteer.connect({ browserWSEndpoint: wsEndpoint });

const page = await browser.newPage();

await page.goto('https://example.com');

console.log(await page.title());

await browser.close();

} catch (error) {

console.error("Connection failed:", error);

}

})();

Example Playwright in Python:

import requests

from playwright.syncapi import syncplaywright

ip_address = ""

debuggerurl = "http://{}:9222/json/version".format(ipaddress)

try:

response = requests.get(debugger_url)

response.raiseforstatus()

data = response.json()

ws_endpoint = data["webSocketDebuggerUrl"]

wsendpoint = wsendpoint.replace("/devtools", ":9222/devtools")

print("Connecting to WebSocket:", ws_endpoint)

with sync_playwright() as p:

browser = p.chromium.connectovercdp(ws_endpoint)

page = browser.new_page()

page.goto("https://example.com")

print("Page Title:", page.title())

browser.close()

except Exception as e:

print("Connection failed:", e)

This AMI is designed to be minimal, including only the Chrome browser and a reverse proxy, ensuring a clean and lightweight virtual machine.
