Struct BrowserContext 

pub struct BrowserContext { /* private fields */ }

BrowserContext represents an isolated browser session.

Contexts are isolated environments within a browser instance. Each context has its own cookies, cache, and local storage, enabling independent sessions without interference.

Example

use playwright_rs::protocol::Playwright;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let playwright = Playwright::launch().await?;
    let browser = playwright.chromium().launch().await?;

    // Create isolated contexts
    let context1 = browser.new_context().await?;
    let context2 = browser.new_context().await?;

    // Create pages in each context
    let page1 = context1.new_page().await?;
    let page2 = context2.new_page().await?;

    // Cleanup
    context1.close().await?;
    context2.close().await?;
    browser.close().await?;
    Ok(())
}

Implementations

impl BrowserContext

pub fn new( parent: Arc<dyn ChannelOwner>, type_name: String, guid: Arc<str>, initializer: Value, ) -> Result<Self>

Creates a new BrowserContext from protocol initialization

This is called by the object factory when the server sends a __create__ message for a BrowserContext object.

Arguments

• parent - The parent Browser object
• type_name - The protocol type name (“BrowserContext”)
• guid - The unique identifier for this context
• initializer - The initialization data from the server

Errors

Returns error if initializer is malformed

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

Creates a new page in this browser context.

Pages are isolated tabs/windows within a context. Each page starts at “about:blank” and can be navigated independently.

Errors

Returns error if:

• Context has been closed
• Communication with browser process fails

See: https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-new-page

pub async fn close(&self) -> Result<()>

Closes the browser context and all its pages.

This is a graceful operation that sends a close command to the context and waits for it to shut down properly.

Errors

Returns error if:

• Context has already been closed
• Communication with browser process fails

See: https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-browsercontext#browser-context-close
