## Install
```shell
cargo add tauri-plugin-screenshots
```
You can install the JavaScript Guest bindings using your preferred JavaScript package manager:
```shell
pnpm add tauri-plugin-screenshots-api
```
## Usage
`src-tauri/src/lib.rs`
```diff
pub fn run() {
tauri::Builder::default()
+ .plugin(tauri_plugin_screenshots::init())
.run(tauri::generate_context!())
.expect("error while running tauri application");
}
```
`src-tauri/capabilities/default.json`
```diff
{
...
"permissions": [
...
+ "screenshots:default"
]
}
```

import {
getScreenshotableWindows,
getWindowScreenshot,
} from "tauri-plugin-screenshots-api";
const windows = await getScreenshotableWindows();
const path = await getWindowScreenshot(windows[0].id);
