Set custom screen resolution for playwright

I am trying to scrape mobile version of site. So I wanted to set custom resolution for web site, like you can do in developer tools for chrome. But in API I cannot find that option. Is there a way to set desired resolution for Playwright from crawlee? In lunch options I cannot see that option, even through ChatGPT suggest there is.

Hello @crveni_mrav, you can use fingerprint options to set the viewport size. For example:

const crawler = new PlaywrightCrawler({
    browserPoolOptions: {
        fingerprintOptions: {
            fingerprintGeneratorOptions: {
                screen: {
                    minWidth: 1920,
                    maxWidth: 1920,
                    minHeight: 1080,
                    maxHeight: 1080,
                },
            },
        },
    },
});

const crawler = new PlaywrightCrawler({
    browserPoolOptions: {
        fingerprintOptions: {
            fingerprintGeneratorOptions: {
                screen: {
                    minWidth: 1920,
                    maxWidth: 1920,
                    minHeight: 1080,
                    maxHeight: 1080,
                },
            },
        },
    },
});
