This was closed but it also doesnt work for me

I even tried using that script exactly it screenshotted the page but no directories were created.

Please try this.

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');

function createDirectoryIfNotExists(dirPath) {
    if (!fs.existsSync(dirPath)) {
        fs.mkdirSync(dirPath, { recursive: true });
    }
}

async function test() {
    const { connect } = await import('puppeteer-real-browser');
    createDirectoryIfNotExists(path.join(__dirname, 'zfc'));
    connect({

        customConfig: {
            userDataDir: './zfc',
        },
    })
        .then(async response => {
            const { browser, page } = response


            await page.goto('https://google.com')
            setInterval(() => {
                page.screenshot({ path: 'example.png' }).catch(error => { console.log(error.message) })
            }, 1000);
        })
        .catch(error => {
            console.log(error.message)
        })
}

The library has been updated. This problem should be solved. Can you try again now?

It's working now, thanks

Hello, there doesn't seem to be a problem. Could you have entered the wrong directory? Can you try / instead of ?

(async () => {
    var { connect } = await import('puppeteer-real-browser')

It changes nothing the path already existed. When used with customconfig the page just opens as about:blank and it won’t go to any pages I tried using your fix for that from another issue (set target) but it did nothing

from puppeteer-real-browser.

This is all that happens with your code it uses the directory but than it wont load any pages at all i copy pasted your code directly and made no change it created the directory opened chrome and than wouldnt go farther

from puppeteer-real-browser.

it also only puts three files in the directory the rest of the userdata like cookies etc isnt there.

This is an open source project. As the readme file says, you can't make aggressive and demanding requests like this. I'm running Ubuntu and I had no problems when I tested it. I'll start a windows virtual machine and test it when I can.

You can try to open a browser and use it as in these codes. Please do not continue spamming.

Look man im not spamming im trying to make you aware that the issue isnt "Solved" its an ongoing issue, im also not demanding anything, my posts were unacknowledged so i was unsure if you were taking the issue as an actual issue or just thinking its user error, i am on windows though and maybe that is why it works for you but not me i will try the code in browser.js and i will also try on linux and let you know if it works fine there vs windows

Use normal puppeter once to initialize the directory which you want, then switch to puppeter-real-browser. I think there is an issue with initializing the user directory in this real-browser. Also use the customconfig parameter to specify the directory.

It doesn't work because I tested if I save the data to localStorage by running it through puppeteer or just opening it as # chrome.exe --user-data-dir=... , and then through puppeteer-real-browser, the data is not contained there, which means that puppeteer-real-browser uses a different directory

from puppeteer-real-browser.

It worked for me to specify the full path of the pre-created directory

customConfig: {
    userDataDir: full_path_created_directory,
}

P.S. The error on Windows is not in the puppeteer-real-browser module, but in the chrome-launcher module, the full path is not used there(for --user-data-directory argument), therefore a temporary directory of user data is created
