Playwright azure function doesn't install chromium Python based

Question

I tried to execute an azure function based on Python and get this problem

PLAYWRITH_BROWSERS_PATH=0 is already set, also I tried put playwright install on requeriments.txt but it doesn't work either. I've thinking in add a task in tasks.json on .vscode path but I don't know how to do it.

Answer 1

PLAYWRITH_BROWSERS_PATH=0

Please make sure your above configuration was correct. There are some spelling mistakes in the settings. Its like PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH = 0

In your local.settings.json it should be

{

"IsEncrypted": false,

    "Values": {
    
        "AzureWebJobsStorage": "",
        
        "FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME": "python",
        
        "PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH": "0"
    
    }

}

And In your requirement.txt file it should be

azure-functions
playwright==1.18.0

here we can see the playwright running in local as well as azure after deployment Local:

Azure:
