CVE-2022-41706: GitHub - spatie/browsershot: Convert HTML to an image, PDF or string

Convert a webpage to an image or pdf using headless Chrome

The package can convert a webpage to an image or pdf. The conversion is done behind the scenes by Puppeteer which controls a headless version of Google Chrome.

Here’s a quick example:

use Spatie\Browsershot\Browsershot;

// an image will be saved Browsershot::url(‘https://example.com’)->save($pathToImage);

It will save a pdf if the path passed to the save method has a pdf extension.

// a pdf will be saved Browsershot::url(‘https://example.com’)->save(‘example.pdf’);

You can also use an arbitrary html input, simply replace the url method with html:

Browsershot::html(‘<h1>Hello world!!</h1>’)->save(‘example.pdf’);

If your HTML input is already in a file locally use the :

Browsershot::htmlFromFilePath(‘/local/path/to/file.html’)->save(‘example.pdf’);

Browsershot also can get the body of an html page after JavaScript has been executed:

Browsershot::url(‘https://example.com’)->bodyHtml(); // returns the html of the body

If you wish to retrieve an array list with all of the requests that the page triggered you can do so:

$requests = Browsershot::url(‘https://example.com’) ->triggeredRequests();

foreach ($requests as $request) { $url = $request[‘url’]; //https://example.com/ }

Alternatives

If you’re not able to install Node and Puppeteer, take a look at v2 of browsershot, which uses Chrome headless CLI to take a screenshot. v2 is not maintained anymore, but should work pretty well.

If using headless Chrome does not work for you take a look at at v1 of this package which uses the abandoned PhantomJS binary.
