In chromote: Headless Chrome Web Browser Interface

List installed or available Chrome binary versions

Description

By default lists the installed Chrome versions in the chrome_versions_path_cache(), or list all Chrome versions available via Google's Chrome for Testing service.

Managed Chrome installations is an experimental feature introduced in chromote v0.5.0 and was inspired by similar features in playwright.

Usage

chrome_versions_list(
  which = c("installed", "all"),
  binary = c("all", "chrome", "chrome-headless-shell", "chromedriver"),
  platform = NULL
)

Arguments

which	Whether to list "installed" local binaries or to list "all" chrome versions available from online sources.
binary	A character string specifying which binary to list. Defaults to "all" to show all binaries, or can be one or more of of "chrome", "chrome-headless-shell", or "chromedriver".
platform	A character string specifying the platform(s) to list. If NULL (default), the platform will be automatically detected, or if "all", then binaries for all platforms will be listed.

Value

Returns a data.frame() of Chrome for Testing versions with columns: version, revision, binary, platform, url (where the binary can be downloaded), and–if which = "installed"–the local path to the binary in the chrome_versions_path_cache().
