The following is an example running webdriver-manager as a dependency. The test downloads the providers and starts the selenium server standalone as detached. After the test, it will shutdown the selenium server standalone. ``` import { Options, setLogLevel, shutdown, start, update, } from 'webdriver-manager'; const options: Options = { browserDrivers: [{ name: 'chromedriver' // For browser drivers, we just need to use a valid // browser driver name. Other possible values // include 'geckodriver' and 'iedriver'. }], server: { name: 'selenium', runAsNode: true, // If we want to run as a node. By default // running as detached will set this to true. runAsDetach: true // To run this in detached. This returns the // process back to the parent process. } }; setLogLevel('info'); // Required if we webdriver-manager to log to // console. Not setting this will hide the logs. describe('some web test', () => { beforeAll(async () => { await update(options); await start(options); }); it('should run some web test', async () => { // Your async / await web test with some framework. }); afterAll(async () => { await shutdown(options); // Makes the web request to shutdown the server. // If we do not call shutdown, the java command // will still be running the server on port 4444. }); }); ``` ## Use as a command line interface ``` npm i -g webdriver-manager webdriver-manager update // Downloads the latest binaries. webdriver-manager start // Starts the selenium server standalone. ``` Notes: * Installing globally will not work with Protractor if you are trying to start a Selenium Standalone server with a "local" or "directConnect", because Protractor installs its own version of webdriver-manager as a dependency. * Right now there is an issue with downloading the latest ChromeDriver. It might not be compatible with the current version of Chrome. The latest available version of ChromeDriver is the *v74.x.x.x* but this one only works with Chrome *v74.x.x.x* which is in Beta right now. So, if you have installed the latest stable version of Chrome (*v73.x.x.x*) you should pin that ChromeDriver version to be downloaded: `webdriver-manager update --versions.chrome=73.0.3683.68`. To find out the latest version, check out http://chromedriver.chromium.org/ . ## The command line interface help commands To get a list of commands for webdriver-manager, use the help flag. ``` webdriver-manager --help webdriver-manager [command] Commands: webdriver-manager clean Removes downloaded files from the out_dir. webdriver-manager shutdown Shutdown a local selenium server with GET request webdriver-manager start Start up the selenium server. webdriver-manager status List the current available binaries. webdriver-manager update Install or update selected binaries. Options: --version Show version number [boolean] --help Show help [boolean] ``` To get a list of options that can be passed to the `webdriver-manager update` command, use the help flag. ``` webdriver-manager update --help webdriver-manager update Install or update selected binaries. Options: --version Show version number [boolean] --help Show help [boolean] --out_dir Location of output. [string] --chrome Install or update chromedriver. [boolean] [default: true] --gecko Install or update geckodriver.[boolean] [default: true] --github_token Use a GitHub token to prevent rate limit issues.
