## Installation


Install syngrisi-wdio-screenshot via NPM as usual:

$ npm install @syngrisi/syngrisi-wdio-screenshot --save-dev
```


Instructions on how to install `WebdriverIO` can be found [here.](http://webdriver.io/guide/getstarted/install.html)

Note: If you want to improve performance, you can [install GraphicsMagick](#use-graphicsmagick).

## Configuration
Setup wdio-screenshot by adding a `@syngrisi/syngrisi-wdio-screenshot` key to the service section of your WebdriverIO config.
More information [Custom Services](https://webdriver.io/docs/customservices.html)

```js
const WdioScreenshot = require('@syngrisi/syngrisi-wdio-screenshot');

// wdio.conf.js
exports.config = {
  // ...
  services: [..., [WdioScreenshot]]
  // ...
};
```


## Usage
wdio-screenshot enhances an WebdriverIO instance with the following commands:

* `browser.saveViewportScreenshot([fileName], [{options}]);`
* `browser.saveDocumentScreenshot([fileName], [{options}]);`
* `browser.saveElementScreenshot([fileName], elementSelector, [{options}]);`


All of these provide options that will help you to exclude unrelevant parts (e.g. content). The following options are
available:


* **hideScrollBar** `String` hide scrollbar for `saveViewportScreenshot` <br>

* **exclude** `String[]|Object[]` (**not yet implemented**)<br>
  exclude frequently changing parts of your screenshot, you can either pass all kinds of different [WebdriverIO selector strategies](http://webdriver.io/guide/usage/selectors.html)
  that queries one or multiple elements or you can define x and y values which stretch a rectangle or polygon

* **hide** `String[]`<br>
  hides all elements queried by all kinds of different [WebdriverIO selector strategies](http://webdriver.io/guide/usage/selectors.html) (via `opacity: 0`)

* **remove** `String[]`<br>
  removes all elements queried by all kinds of different [WebdriverIO selector strategies](http://webdriver.io/guide/usage/selectors.html) (via `display: none`)

## Use GraphicsMagick
wdio-screenshot uses [GraphicsMagick](http://www.graphicsmagick.org/) for image processing when available. Without GraphicsMagick installed, wdio-screenshot fallbacks to [Jimp](https://github.com/oliver-moran/jimp) - a image processing library written in JS.

If you want to install GraphicsMagick, follow the instructions below.

#### Mac OS X using [Homebrew](http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/)
```sh
$ brew install graphicsmagick
```

#### Ubuntu using apt-get
```sh
$ sudo apt-get install graphicsmagick
```

#### Windows

Download and install executables for [GraphicsMagick](http://www.graphicsmagick.org/download.html).
Please make sure you install the right binaries desired for your system (32bit vs 64bit).
