v0.162.1

Changelog

Add copy targets for Xamarin.Mac

v0.162.0

Major Changes

Driver updated to v.0.162.1. See playwright changelog: v1.6.0, v1.6.1 and v1.6.2.

Driver and browser install refactor.

Playwright Driver

Playwright drivers will be copied to the bin folder at build time. Nuget will rely on the RuntimeIdentifier to copy a platform-specific driver, or on the runtime used on dotnet publish.
If the RuntimeIdentifier is not set, all runtimes will be copied inside a runtimes folder. Then, the platform-specific driver will be picked at run-time.

Browsers

The way browsers are installed will vary depending on the use case scenario.

Playwright in test projects

If you use Playwright in test projects, all required browsers will be installed at build time.

Using Playwright in Docker

If you use the official Docker images, all the required browsers will be installed in that image.
The minor version of the package will tell you which docker image tag to use. For instance, PlaywrightSharp 0.162.0 will work with the tag v1.6.2.

Using Playwright in a Remote Server.

If you run Playwright in a remote server. For instance, as part of a web application, you will need to run .\bin\playwright-cli.exe install in Windows or ./bin/playwright-cli install in OSX/Linux as part of your deploy script.

// With browser.NewContextAsync()
var context = await browser.NewContextAsync(videosPath: "videos/");

// With browser.NewPageAsync()
var page = await browser.NewPageAsync(videosPath: "videos/");

// [Optional] Specify video size; defaults to viewport size
var context = await browser.NewContextAsync(
    videosPath: "videos/",
    videoSize: new ViewportSize { Width = 800, Height = 600 }
);
