Screenshot API for Django

Add screenshot capture to Django views. Generate thumbnails, link previews, or visual reports in your Django app.

Installation

pip install requests

Django Integration Example

# views.py
import requests
from django.http import HttpResponse

def capture_screenshot(request):
    url = request.GET.get("url", "https://example.com")
    response = requests.get("https://snapapi.tech/v1/screenshot", params={
        "url": url,
        "api_key": settings.SNAPAPI_KEY,
        "format": "png"
    })
    return HttpResponse(response.content, content_type="image/png")

Features

SnapAPI renders pages in a real Chromium browser, so JavaScript-heavy Django apps render perfectly. You get:

• Full JavaScript rendering (React, Vue, Angular, etc.)
• 9 device presets for mobile emulation
• Dark mode, full page, CSS selector capture
• Metadata extraction (title, description, links, text)
• PNG, JPEG, WebP output formats
