### C# DotNetBrowser Quick Start

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser#can-you-backport-a-fix-from-the-latest-version-to-the-version-i-currently-use

Demonstrates basic usage of DotNetBrowser to load a URL, extract text content, and print it to the console. Ensure DotNetBrowser is properly installed and configured.

```csharp
Imports DotNetBrowser.Browser
Imports DotNetBrowser.Engine

Module Program
    Sub Main(args() As String)
        Dim builder = new EngineOptions.Builder()
        
        Using engine = EngineFactory.Create(builder.Build())

### Initialize DotNetBrowser and Load Page

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/blog/how-to-generate-pdf-in-c-sharp#results

Set up DotNetBrowser with off-screen rendering and a license key, then create a browser instance to load an HTML template file.

```csharp
using DotNetBrowser;
using DotNetBrowser.Engine;
using DotNetBrowser.Print;
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

class Program
{
    private static async Task Main()
    {
        var options = new EngineOptions.Builder
        {
            RenderingMode = RenderingMode.OffScreen,
            LicenseKey = "your license key"
        }.Build();

        using var engine = EngineFactory.Create(engineOptions);
        using var browser = engine.CreateBrowser();

        // The page is a resource in the project.
        var pageUrl = Path.GetFullPath("template.html");   
        await browser.Navigation.LoadUrl(pageUrl);
    }
}
```

### Download CRX from Chrome Web Store

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/docs/guides/gs/extensions#peculiarities--limitations

Register the InstallExtensionCallback to get the CRX file path and copy it to a custom location. This callback is invoked when an extension is about to be installed from the Chrome Web Store. The example returns 'Cancel' to prevent default installation.

```csharp
extensions.InstallExtensionHandler =
    new Handler<InstallExtensionParameters, InstallExtensionResponse>(p =>
    {
        string name = p.ExtensionName;
        string version = p.ExtensionVersion;
        string sourceCrxFilePath = Path.GetFullPath(p.ExtensionCrxFile);
        string targetCrxFilePath = Path.GetFullPath(name + "-" + version + ".crx");
        try
        {
            File.Copy(sourceCrxFilePath, targetCrxFilePath);
        }
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException(e.Message, e);
        }
        return InstallExtensionResponse.Cancel;
    });

```

```vbnet
extensions.InstallExtensionHandler =
    New Handler(Of InstallExtensionParameters, InstallExtensionResponse)(
        Function(p)
            Dim name As String = p.ExtensionName
            Dim version As String = p.ExtensionVersion
            Dim sourceCrxFilePath As String = Path.GetFullPath(p.ExtensionCrxFile)
            Dim targetCrxFilePath As String = Path.GetFullPath(name & "-" & version & ".crx")
            Try
                File.Copy(sourceCrxFilePath, targetCrxFilePath)
            Catch e As IOException
                Throw New InvalidOperationException(e.Message, e)
            End Try
            Return InstallExtensionResponse.Cancel
        End Function)

### Detecting Cast Session Start Failures with Event

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/docs/3/guides/gs/media#camera--microphone

Use the `ICastSessions.StartFailed` event to detect when a cast session fails to start, for example, if the media receiver is not found or has disconnected. The event provides an `ErrorMessage`.

```csharp
IMediaReceiver receiver =
        await mediaReceivers.RetrieveAsync(it => it.Name.Contains("Samsung"));
profile.MediaCasting.CastSessions.StartFailed += (o, args) =>
{
    string errorMessage = args.ErrorMessage;
};

ICastSession castSession = await browser.Cast.CastContent(receiver);
```

```vb
Dim receiver As IMediaReceiver =
        Await mediaReceivers.RetrieveAsync(Function(it) it.Name.Contains("Samsung"))
AddHandler profile.MediaCasting.CastSessions.StartFailed, Sub(o, args)
    Dim errorMessage As String = args.ErrorMessage
End Sub

Dim castSession As ICastSession = Await browser.Cast.CastContent(receiver)
```

```vb
AddHandler navigation.NavigationStarted, Sub(s, e)
    Dim url As String = e.Url
    ' Indicates whether the navigation will be performed
    ' in the scope of the same document.
    Dim isSameDocument As Boolean = e.IsSameDocument

### Complete WPF Application Example

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/docs/3/guides/gs/browser-view#off-screen

This example demonstrates the full integration of DotNetBrowser into a WPF application, including engine and browser creation, BrowserView initialization, and navigation.

```xml
<Window
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    xmlns:WPF="clr-namespace:DotNetBrowser.Wpf;assembly=DotNetBrowser.Wpf"
    x:Class="Embedding.Wpf.MainWindow"
    mc:Ignorable="d"
    Title="MainWindow" Height="480" Width="800" Closed="Window_Closed">
    <Grid>
        <WPF:BrowserView Name="browserView" />
    </Grid>
</Window>
```

```csharp
// MainWindow.xaml.cs

using System;
using System.Windows;
using DotNetBrowser.Browser;
using DotNetBrowser.Engine;

namespace Embedding.Wpf
{
    /// <summary>
    ///     This example demonstrates how to embed DotNetBrowser
    ///     into a WPF application.
    /// </summary>
    public partial class MainWindow : Window
    {
        private const string Url = "https://html5test.teamdev.com/";
        private readonly IBrowser browser;
        private readonly IEngine engine;

        public MainWindow()
        {
            // Create and initialize the IEngine instance.
            EngineOptions engineOptions = new EngineOptions.Builder
            {
                RenderingMode = RenderingMode.HardwareAccelerated
            }.Build();
            engine = EngineFactory.Create(engineOptions);

            // Create the IBrowser instance.
            browser = engine.CreateBrowser();

            InitializeComponent();

            // Initialize the WPF BrowserView control.
            browserView.InitializeFrom(browser);
            browser.Navigation.LoadUrl(Url);
        }

        private void Window_Closed(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            browser?.Dispose();
            engine?.Dispose();
        }
    }
}

### Register InstallExtensionHandler in C#

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/docs/guides/gs/extensions#extension-action-popups

Register the InstallExtensionHandler to intercept extension installations. This example copies the CRX file to a specified location.

```csharp
extensions.InstallExtensionHandler =
    new Handler<InstallExtensionParameters, InstallExtensionResponse>(p =>
    {
        string name = p.ExtensionName;
        string version = p.ExtensionVersion;
        string sourceCrxFilePath = Path.GetFullPath(p.ExtensionCrxFile);
        string targetCrxFilePath = Path.GetFullPath(name + "-" + version + ".crx");
        try
        {
            File.Copy(sourceCrxFilePath, targetCrxFilePath);
        }
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            throw new InvalidOperationException(e.Message, e);
        }
        return InstallExtensionResponse.Cancel;
    });

```

### Initialize Engine with Project License (VB)

Source: https://teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser/docs/3/guides/licensing

Use this snippet to initialize the IEngine with a project license key in VB. Ensure the license is tied to the current namespace or an outer namespace.

```vbnet
Namespace ProductNamespace
    Namespace MyNamespace
        Public Class [MyClass]
            Public Sub InitializeEngine()
                Dim engine As IEngine = EngineFactory.Create(New EngineOptions.Builder With 
                {
                    .LicenseKey = "your_project_license_key"
                }.Build())
            End Sub
        End Class
    End Namespace
End Namespace
```
