Struct BrowserInstance 

pub struct BrowserInstance { /* private fields */ }

A managed browser instance with health tracking.

Wraps a chromiumoxide Browser and an async handler task. Always call BrowserInstance::shutdown (or drop) after use to release OS resources.

Implementations

impl BrowserInstance

pub async fn launch(config: BrowserConfig) -> Result<Self>

Launch a new browser instance using the provided BrowserConfig.

All configured anti-detection arguments (see BrowserConfig::effective_args) are passed at launch time.

Errors

• BrowserError::LaunchFailed if the process does not start within config.launch_timeout.
• BrowserError::Timeout if the browser doesn’t respond in time.

Example

use stygian_browser::{BrowserConfig, browser::BrowserInstance};

let instance = BrowserInstance::launch(BrowserConfig::default()).await?;

pub const fn is_healthy_cached(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the browser is currently considered healthy.

This is a cached value updated by BrowserInstance::health_check.

pub async fn is_healthy(&mut self) -> bool

Actively probe the browser with a CDP request.

Sends Browser.getVersion and waits up to cdp_timeout. Updates the internal healthy flag and returns the result.

Example

use stygian_browser::{BrowserConfig, browser::BrowserInstance};

let mut instance = BrowserInstance::launch(BrowserConfig::default()).await?;
assert!(instance.is_healthy().await);

pub async fn health_check(&mut self) -> Result<()>

Run a health check and return a structured Result.

Pings the browser with the CDP Browser.getVersion RPC.

pub const fn browser(&self) -> &Browser

Access the underlying chromiumoxide Browser.

pub const fn browser_mut(&mut self) -> &mut Browser

Mutable access to the underlying chromiumoxide Browser.

pub fn id(&self) -> &str

Instance ID (ULID) for log correlation.

pub fn uptime(&self) -> Duration

How long has this instance been alive.

pub const fn config(&self) -> &BrowserConfig

The config snapshot used at launch.

pub async fn shutdown(self) -> Result<()>

Gracefully close the browser.

Sends Browser.close and waits up to cdp_timeout. Any errors during tear-down are logged but not propagated so the caller can always clean up.

Example

use stygian_browser::{BrowserConfig, browser::BrowserInstance};

let mut instance = BrowserInstance::launch(BrowserConfig::default()).await?;
instance.shutdown().await?;

pub async fn new_page(&self) -> Result<PageHandle>

Open a new tab and return a crate::page::PageHandle.

The handle closes the tab automatically when dropped.

Errors

Returns BrowserError::CdpError if a new page cannot be created.

Example

use stygian_browser::{BrowserConfig, browser::BrowserInstance};

let mut instance = BrowserInstance::launch(BrowserConfig::default()).await?;
let page = instance.new_page().await?;
drop(page);
instance.shutdown().await?;
