## Chromium for Serverless Platforms
[sparticuz/chrome-aws-lambda](https://github.com/sparticuz/chrome-aws-lambda) was originally forked from [alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda#264](https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda/pull/264).
The main difference, aside from the Chromium version, is the inclusion of some code from https://github.com/alixaxel/lambdafs, while removing it as a dependency. Due to changes in WebGL, the files in `bin/swiftshader.tar.br` must now be extracted to `/tmp` instead of `/tmp/swiftshader`. This required changes in lambdafs.
However, maintaining the package became difficult due to the rapid pace of `puppeteer` updates. `@sparticuz/chromium` is not tied to specific `puppeteer` versions and does not include the overrides and hooks found in the original package. It provides only Chromium, the code required to decompress the Brotli package, and a set of predefined arguments tailored for serverless environments.
## Install
[`puppeteer` ships with a preferred version of `chromium`](https://pptr.dev/faq#q-why-doesnt-puppeteer-vxxx-work-with-a-certain-version-of-chrome-or-firefox). To determine which version of `@sparticuz/chromium` you need, visit the [Puppeteer Chromium Support page](https://pptr.dev/chromium-support).
> For example, as of today, the latest version of `puppeteer` is `18.0.5`, and the latest supported version of Chromium is `106.0.5249.0`. Therefore, you should install `@sparticuz/chromium@106`.
```shell
# Puppeteer or Playwright is a production dependency
npm install --save puppeteer-core@$PUPPETEER_VERSION
# @sparticuz/chromium can be a DEV dependency IF YOU ARE USING A LAYER. If you are not using a layer, use it as a production dependency!
npm install --save-dev @sparticuz/chromium@$CHROMIUM_VERSION
```
If your vendor does not allow large deployments (since `chromium.br` is over 50 MB), you will need to host the `chromium-v#-pack.tar` separately and use the [`@sparticuz/chromium-min` package](https://github.com/Sparticuz/chromium#-min-package).
```shell
npm install --save @sparticuz/chromium-min@$CHROMIUM_VERSION
```
If you need to install an older version of Chromium, see [@sparticuz/chrome-aws-lambda](https://github.com/Sparticuz/chrome-aws-lambda#versioning) or [@alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda](https://github.com/alixaxel/chrome-aws-lambda).
## Versioning
The @sparticuz/chromium version schema is as follows:
`MajorChromiumVersion.MinorChromiumIncrement.@Sparticuz/chromiumPatchLevel`
Because this package follows Chromium's release cycle, it does NOT follow semantic versioning. **Breaking changes may occur at the 'patch' level.** Please check the release notes for details on breaking changes.
## Usage
This package works with all currently supported AWS Lambda Node.js runtimes out of the box.
```javascript
import test from "node:test";
import puppeteer from "puppeteer-core";
import chromium from "@sparticuz/chromium";
// Optional: If you'd like to disable webgl, true is the default.
chromium.setGraphicsMode = false;
test("Check the page title of example.com", async (t) => {
