This patch:
- drops dependency on playwright-core in all our packages. Instead of
the dependency, packages are now built with `//packages/build_package.sh`
script.
- unifies `browsers.json` - now there's a single `//browsers.json` file
that is used to manage browser revisions.
This patch temporary switches canary publishing to `--dryn-run` from CI/CD so that we
can verify that it does sane things.
We'll unify all our package management scripts under `//packages/` in a
follow-up.
Fixes#2268
This patch removes the `PLAYWRIGHT_GLOBAL_INSTALL=1` variable
and instead introduces a new var - `PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH`.
You can specify `PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH` to affect where playwright
installs browsers and where it looks for browsers.
Fixes#1102
This patch:
- removes `browserType.downloadBrowserIfNeeded()` method. The method
turned out to be ill-behaving and cannot not be used as we'd like to (see #1085)
- adds a `browserType.setExecutablePath` method to set a browser
exectuable.
With this patch, we take the following approach towards managing browser downloads:
- `playwright-core` doesn't download any browsers. In `playwright-core`, `playwright.chromium.executablePath()` returns `null` (same for firefox and webkit).
- clients of `playwright-core` (e.g. `playwright` and others) download browsers one way or another.
They can then configure `playwright` with executable paths and re-export the `playwright` object to their clients.
- `playwright`, `playwright-firefox`, `playwright-chromium` and `playwright-webkit` download
browsers. Once browsers are downloaded, their executable paths are saved to a `.downloaded-browsers.json` file. This file is read in `playwright/index.js` to configure browser executable paths and re-export the API.
- special case is `install-from-github.js` that also cleans up old browsers.
This patch starts respecting `PLAYWRIGHT_DOWNLOAD_HOST` env variable
in `playwright` package and it's vendored flavors (`playwright-firefox`,
`playwright-chromium` and `playwright-webkit`).
Fixes#1045
This patch makes it so all our packages, like `playwright` and
browser-specific flavors, download browsers to their
directories rather then using directory of `playwright-core`.
This way yarn@1 caches are not busted: they didn't expect that directory
content might change after packages's explicit install step
is failed, there's that was what we were doing.
Fixes#1085
* feat: change vendor package exports
This patch changes top-level exports for the vendor-specific
packages:
- `playwright-chromium`: now exports an object with a single `chromium`
field
- `playwright-wekbit`: now exports an object with a single `webkit`
- `playwright-firefox`: now exports an object with a single `firefox`
Fixes#814
