You can check the version you are using with the following command: ` composer show spatie/browsershot ` Connection to a remote chromium/chrome instance =============================================== If you have a remote endpoint for a running chromium/chrome instance, properly configured with the param --remote-debugging-port, you can connect to it using the method `setRemoteInstance`. You only need to specify it's ip and port (defaults are 127.0.0.1 and 9222 accordingly). If no instance is available at the given endpoint (instance crashed, restarting instance, etc), this will fallback to launching a chromium instance. ``` Browsershot::url('https://example.com') ->setRemoteInstance('1.2.3.4', 9222) ... ``` A good match? ------------- ### What we do best - All things Laravel - Custom frontend components - Building APIs - AI-powered features - Simplifying things - Clean solutions - Integrating services ### Not our cup of tea - WordPress themes - Cutting corners - Free mockups to win a job - "Just execute the briefing" In short: we'd like to be a **substantial part** of your project.
