[Info request} HuggingFace with nodriver

[TheFirstNoob]

Hello,

I’m having a bit of trouble—or perhaps I’m misunderstanding—how to use nodriver correctly with the HuggingChat provider. When I run it, Chrome opens, I complete the authentication, and that’s it. If I close the browser, I get the error “Remote host closed the connection,” and nothing else happens. Additionally, Chrome warns me that the --no‑sandbox flag is no longer supported.

Am I doing something wrong?

The HuggingChat provider is currently outdated. HuggingChat now utilizes the HuggingFace API, and you can seamlessly transition to using the HuggingFace provider.

The current version mostly works. The issue remains with the nodriver and --no-sandbox parameter, which are no longer supported. Surely we can do without them?

I think that a number of providers that use nodriver will also work poorly.

To resolve potential issues with nodriver, please initiate the browser independently using /scripts/start-browser.sh and configure the G4F_BROWSER_PORT environment variable.
