await page.setRequestInterception(true)

This issue is definitely a time saver!

I also have trouble with page.setRequestInterception(true). any other progress?

[christian-bromann]

@DevYuns can you provide a reproducible example?

[john-doherty]

@christian-bromann here's a reproducible example:

// launch the browser
var browser = await puppeteer.launch({ headless: false });

// get existing tab/page (first item in the array)
var [page] = await browser.pages();

// inspect each request and blocking external resources
page.on('request', function(req) {

    var resourceUrl = url.parse(req.url());
    var resourceHost = resourceUrl.host;
    var blockedResources = ['google-analytics.com'];

    if (blockedResources.indexOf(resourceHost) > -1) {
        req.abort();
    } else {
        req.continue();
    }
});

// load barcode tracking website
await page.goto('https://orcascan.com');

Result = Error: Request Interception is not enabled!

If you add await page.setRequestInterception(true); it works, but it's not obvious - especially to new users.

Ideally, it should activate itself whenever the request event is subscribed to.

For some reason this is breaking in my code as well. What is strange is that in some macchine it fails in some other it passes. I have enabled the setRequestInterception. Must be failing in some specific versions of pupuppeteer

[TryingToImprove]

I had this issue with v10. Just upgraded to v13 of the node library and it seems to be working now..
