apicore/puppetcam repository overview

⁠Puppetcam

Create screencast of a website

⁠Examples

⁠Record given length video from website
docker run -v "${PWD}/data:/home/node/Downloads" apicore/puppetcam https://tobiasahlin.com/spinkit/ -l 10000

The output will be a 10 second long full HD video saved as ./data/video.webm.

⁠Record video from website using webside-side triggering
docker run -v "${PWD}/data:/home/node/Downloads" apicore/puppetcam https://site-triggered.example/ -t -l 10000

The recording is started when the window.triggerRenderer variable on the website becomes true and it is stopped when the same variable becomes false again. This option can be used to control the recording from the website itself. In this case the --length parameter is only used to set a sensible timeout. The output will be a full HD video saved as ./data/video.webm.
