browsershot

Take screenshots using Phantomjs or Browserstack APIs

CLI

browsershot [general options] <command> [command options]

All commands require the --backend flag which chooses which service will be used to create the screenshots. If you don't have a Browserstack plan then phantomjs will work locally.

List available browsers:

browsershot --username myuser --key abc123 list

Take a screenshot and put it in the current directory:

browsershot --username myuser --key abc123 snap --url https://smallpdf.com

Take a screenshot and put it in another directory:

browsershot --username myuser --key abc123 snap --output-dir /tmp --url https://smallpdf.com

Read URLs from a file, one URL per file:

browsershot --username myuser --key abc123 snap --input-file ./urls.txt

All command-line arguments can also be read from file in JSON format:

    browsershot --config ./conf.json list

    $ cat ./conf.json

    {
      "username": "myuser",
      "key": "abc123",
      "backend": "browserstack-screenshot"
    }
