Multiple instances
How to make the most out of Pepper + CLI with running multiples instances
Unlike other extensions Pepper will allow you to run multiple Chrome instances - as many as you like - on one computer.
Prerequisites
You will need:
Pepper
Pepper CLI
Good proxies (we can't recommend you anything for this in the guide, as the sites change a lot constantly - pick your proxies based on your own experience or try asking others in the chat)
Usage
First of all make sure you setup all your Chrome users with a fully configured Pepper instance. This means:
1) Create a new Chrome Profile (no guest)
2) Load Pepper inside the new Profile from the same folder you used to setup your first Chrome instance
3) Install BP Proxy Switcher
4) Set BP Proxy Switcher settings the way mentioned below
5) Import Pepper Settings from your other Chrome instance and setup the webhook etc.
6) Check if everything is working by doing some test checkouts!
The needed configuration of the BP Proxy Switcher can be seen in screenshots below. This configuration is inevitable!
The most important part is to exclude the Pepper API and your localhost from the proxy. Simply click the "Exclude" tab in BP Proxy Switcher and add the list below. If you skip this your Pepper instances will not be activated correctly!
As some proxy providers block PayPal - and that would cause errors with Pepper - we recommend to exclude PayPal from the proxies as well.
Here is a dummy list that you can use - but feel free to add other exclusions as well:
Autostart Chrome instances via CLI
Check the Spawn Chrome instances guide.
