Got some issue with the PATH env.
I'm trying to make it work under Win7.

set PHANTOMJS_BIN="C:\Program Files\phantomjs"

[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
[ERROR][http://abc.xyz:80] renderer binary could not have been found in your current PATH environment variable, exiting

Tried with explicitly adding -r phantomjs, or chrome, chromium, none of them work.

Hello @albertzsigovits,

  1. Is your phantomjs binary in the PATH variable, such as described here ?
  2. Alternatively can you try to use the --renderer-binary option by specifying the absolute path to your phantomjs binary ?

Best regards

Input:
$ python webscreenshot.py -i web.txt -o web\ -r phantomjs --renderer-binary E:\screen\phantomjs\bin\phantomjs.exe -v

Output:
[INFO][General] 'www.xyz' has been formatted as 'http://www.xyz:80' with supplied overriding options
[+] 1 URLs to be screenshot
[WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
[ERROR][http://www.xyz:80] renderer binary could not have been found in your current PATH environment variable, exiting

Why is it still trying to look for a PATH variable when --renderer-binary should take precedence?

It is now normaly fixed in 2fe9986, just make a pip install --upgrade webscreenshot

There were some issues in the way shlex splits Windows paths.

The --renderer-binary option, when specified, always take precedence over PATH.

Cheers.
