# LinkedIn Post Sidecar
|
||||
|
||||
A Playwright acceptance test that logs into LinkedIn with supplied credentials and creates a post.
|
||||
|
||||
## One-time setup
|
||||
|
||||
cd sidecars/linkedin-post
|
||||
npm install
|
||||
npx playwright install chromium
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
./run.sh --email=YOUR_EMAIL --password=YOUR_PASSWORD \
|
||||
--post="Your post content here" [--headed]
|
||||
|
||||
Prints a single JSON line to stdout and exits 0 on success, exits 1 on failure:
|
||||
|
||||
{"success": true, "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/posts/..."}
|
||||
{"success": false, "error": "Login failed: Invalid credentials"}
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- On a failed run, Playwright retains a screenshot and trace under `test-results/` for debugging.
|
||||
These are gitignored and not committed, but they persist on disk.
|
||||
- LinkedIn's UI changes periodically. If posting fails, check the selectors in `tests/linkedin-post.spec.js`
|
||||
and update them using: `npx playwright codegen https://www.linkedin.com/login`
|
||||
- LinkedIn may show CAPTCHAs or 2FA prompts which will cause the automation to fail.
|
||||
- For company pages, you may need to switch to the page after login before posting.
