How to use plugins programmatically?

[JWebDev]

Hi all,

I'm running lighthouse programmatically. Everything is fine, but if I add lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads to my config, then I expect it in generated json categories section.

My lighthouse config looks like.
After that, i should see lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads in categories object. If I run lighthouse from command line, then generated json has lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads in categories section. If I run it programmatically, then lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads does not exists in generated json report in categories object

runnerResult = await lighthouse(url, flags, configs, page)
configs object

{
   "extends": "lighthouse:default",
   "settings": {
      "formFactor": "desktop",
      "disableFullPageScreenshot": false,
      "locale": "en",
      "screenEmulation": {
         "disabled": true
      },
      "onlyCategories": [
         "performance",
         "accessibility",
         "best-practices",
         "seo",
         "pwa"
      ]
   },
   "plugins": [
      "lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads"
   ]
}

lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads is in package.json

  "dependencies": {
    "lighthouse": "^10.2.0",
    "lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads": "1.5.7-beta",
    "puppeteer": "^19.9.1"
  },
  "overrides": {
    "lighthouse-plugin-publisher-ads": {
      "lighthouse": "$lighthouse"
    }
  }

Thanks for the help.
