Chromium Command Line Arguments - PDF Viewer

[guirociozanini]

What are you trying to achieve? (Expected behavior)

I'am trying to add a argument to not see pdf files, just download it-

What do you get instead? (Actual behavior)

I can't find the argument to configure the browser

        $caps = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
        $options = new ChromeOptions();
        $options->addArguments(array(
            '--disable-pdf-viewer',
        ));
        $caps->setCapability(ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY, $options);

Details

• PHP version: 7
• Operating system: Ubuntu 17.04
• Browser used + version: Chromium 60

Looks like you now need to use the chrome prefs to achieve this, something like:

        $caps = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
        $options = new ChromeOptions();
        $options->setExperimentalOption('prefs', ['plugins.always_open_pdf_externally' => true]);
        $caps->setCapability(ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY, $options);

(note - not tried)
