Lighthouse: Feature Request: Can you provide multiple urls?

[george-nelson]

From the command prompt can you provide a list of URL's instead of one at a time?
From this:
lighthouse

to
lighthouse

[benschwarz]

@george-nelson, right now lighthouse runs a single URL, but if you wanted to run a bunch of URL you could do so sequentially using a bash script or something like that?

[george-nelson]

Thanks for the quick response. That's how I have configured in Jenkins. My ultimate goal is have some sort of dashboard in a matrix format.

URL | Performance | Accessibility|Best Practices
----- | ---------------| -------------| -------------
Site1 | 0 | 83 | 63
Site2 | 10 | 23 | 53

Hey George- thanks for passing along this request! This is something we're definitely considering implementing, but need to prioritize accordingly. Keep watching the bug and we'll update it soon with the prioritization :)

@george-nelson some of the code in this package might help: https://github.com/emazzotta/lighthouse-badges

It takes a list of urls like you describe but produces badges with averages rather than a detailed matrix.

Will take a look at it - thank you for the follow up

I think we realized that the metric for "Unused CSS" might not be accurate for our SPA because certain views weren't being rendered for that just yet. Multiple URLs in a single lighthouse run would help give a better sense of that metric - but maybe reconciling those performance tests across multiple URLs is a much bigger task than I'm imagining!

[shaijujanardhanan]

I would like to make an addition to the request raised by @george-nelson.
It would be good if we could do this for urls which require authentication too?
As of now i do this manually after starting the chrome-debugger and then subsequently running lighthouse for different urls.

[EnlightenMeee]

@shaijujanardhanan u can use lighthouse with puppeteer on that one automate login authentication using puppeteer and then use lighthouse to audit your desired url/page. read this one here

[brendankenny]

Closing in favor of other tools. Can script on the command line (or in node) or try one of the many integrations and related projects

[githubjosh]

Does feel like enabling an array of URLs into the CLI tool should be pretty straight-forward and helpful

[patrickhulce]

Does feel like cat urls.txt | xargs -I % lighthouse % should be pretty straight-forward to do without unnecessarily complicating the core library.
