Usage
An API key and secret are required to use the client.
screenshot
Use the screenshot method to take a screenshot of a website.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.screenshotWait(endpointId, apiSecret, {
browser: 'chromium',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
});
console.log(resp);
})();Outputs:

}HTML can also be sent instead of a URL.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.screenshot(endpointId, apiSecret, {
browser: 'chromium',
html: '<!doctype html><html><body><h1>Hello World</h1></body></html>',
type: 'jpg',
});
})();batchScreenshots
Use the batchScreenshotsWatch method to take multiple screenshots at once.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
// When sending batch requests, a unique key is required for each scrape page.
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.batchScreenshotsWait(endpointId, apiSecret, [
{
browser: 'chromium',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
},
{
browser: 'firefox',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
}
]);
console.log(resp);

}Some integrations may require request-time configuration. For example, you may want to tell the Google Cloud Storage integration which filename to use. You can do this by passing the options parameter.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
// When sending batch requests, a unique key is required for each scrape page.
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.batchScreenshotsWait(endpointId, apiSecret, [
{
url: 'https://google.com',
type: 'jpg',
options: {
GoogleCloudStorage: {
filename: 'google.jpg'
}
}
}
]);
console.log(resp);
})();status
Use the status method to get the status of a screenshot request.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
const requestId = '1917c524-044d-456b-b7af-4397499dade8';
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.screenshotWait(endpointId, apiSecret, {
browser: 'chromium',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
});
const status = await client.status(endpointId, resp.id);
console.log(status);
})();Outputs:
{
"id": "bffd4858-16fd-4c6a-827c-a312782ddb22",

}Beacons
Normally, when a request is sent to the Snapsites API, the client will wait until all the screenshots are finished before returning with a response. You can change this behavior by setting the wait parameter to false, and then use beacons to get real time updates.
import { Client } from '@basetime/snapsites-typescript';
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.screenshot(endpointId, apiSecret, {
browser: 'chromium',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
});
const unsubscribe = client.onBeacon(resp, (beacon) => {
console.log(beacon);
if (beacon.status !== 'running') {
unsubscribe();
}
});
})();Which will produce output similar to this.

]Metadata
Metadata is a way to store arbitrary data with a screenshot request. Status updates and beacons will include the metadata. Clients can use the metadata to store information about the request, such as a database ID.
(async () => {
const apiSecret = '123';
const endpointId = 'dyNmcmgxd4BFmuffdwCBV0';
const client = new Client();
const resp = await client.screenshot(endpointId, apiSecret, {
browser: 'chromium',
url: 'https://avagate.com',
type: 'jpg',
meta: '123',
});
})();
