Lighthouse CLI authentication

I'm trying to perform audit using Lighthouse CLI (not tab in DevTools but Node CLI tool). My app requires authentication.

Maybe somebody knows how to pass authentication in such a case?

I'm using command line like the following

lighthouse https://example.com:8100/some-path/ --budget-path=budget.json --output-path=report.html
Solution

  • Please use the below options with CLI

    --extra-headers={auth cookies}

    OR use debugging port with CLI that lighthouse can open pages on same browser instance where authentication is already done

    --port=9222 //9222 is just an example
