aws-lambda-chrome

AWS Lambda compatible Chrome

This repository wraps a custom build of Chrome suitable for use on AWS lambda.

Usage

Requiring this module augments the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PATH in order for chrome to find a custom build of NSS. This is necessary because the build of NSS on lambda is too old for newer versions of Chrome to boot with.

const { chromePath } = require('aws-lambda-chrome');
const { spawn } = require('child_process');

chromeProcess = spawn(chromePath, effectiveArgs, {
    env: process.env,
    /* TODO add required args here */
});
