Screenshot as a Service

GCPUG Taiwan Meetup #29 Screenshot as a service

Waldo-gcp

一個基本 Google Map 上計算最佳路徑的實小服務

img/screenshot-as-a-service-1.png

當初會想弄一個 screenshot 的服務是因為 slideshare: Waldo-gcp 中會有擷圖的需求,且需要跟 GAE 進行整合,所以選擇了滿多人使用的 PhantomJS 來實作擷圖的服務並使用 GAE flex runtime 的型式發佈到 GAE 平台上作為專案的 microservice 使用

Phantomjs

PhantomJS is a headless WebKit scriptable with a JavaScript API. It has fast and native support for various web standards: DOM handling, CSS selector, JSON, Canvas, and SVG. http://phantomjs.org/

// yahoo.com.tw.js
var page = require('webpage').create();
page.viewportSize = { width: 1440, height: 900 };
page.clipRect = { top: 0, left: 0, width: 1440, height: 900 };
page.open('http://yahoo.com.tw', function() {
  page.render('yahoo.com.tw.png');
  phantom.exit();
});

// execute
$ phantomjs yahoo.com.tw.js

chromless

Chrome automation made simple. Runs locally or headless on AWS Lambda. https://github.com/graphcool/chromeless

const { Chromeless } = require('chromeless')

async function run() {
  const chromeless = new Chromeless()

  const screenshot = await chromeless
    .goto('https://www.google.com')
    .type('chromeless', 'input[name="q"]')
    .press(13)
    .wait('#resultStats')
    .screenshot()

  console.log(screenshot) // prints local file path or S3 url

  await chromeless.end()
}

run().catch(console.error.bind(console))

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.goto('https://www.google.com');
  await page.screenshot({path: 'google.com.png'});

  browser.close();
})();

這兒舉三個簡單的例子來說明擷圖的技術,Phantomjs, Chromeless, puppeteer, 以前 Phantomjs 很熱門,不過最近 chromeless 等技術興起,也有友好的 API 可以給開發人員使用。GoogleChrome/puppeteer: Headless Chrome Node API 更是提供高階 API 來操作 Headless Chrome

Screenshot as service via GAE custom runtime

app.yaml

runtime: custom
env: flex
service: screenshot

...

handlers:

- url: /.*
  script: app.js

由於在兒我們使用的是包了 ExpressPhantomJS 的 custome runtime 來實作 GAE 版的 screenshot service, yaml 的重點便是指定 runtime: custom, env: flex

DockerFile 的重點則是準備好基本的 library 及 Express/Phantomjs 的配置。準備好 DockerFileapp.yaml 還有程式碼,就可以透過 gcloud -q app deploy 的指命將服務推到 GCP 上
