Development on this project has been suspended due to lack of support for PhantomJs.
const phantom = require('phantom');
(async function() {
const instance = await phantom.create();
const page = await instance.createPage();
await page.on('onResourceRequested', function(requestData) {
console.info('Requesting', requestData.url);
});
const status = await page.open('https://stackoverflow.com/');
const content = await page.property('content');
console.log(content);
await instance.exit();
})();Using Node v7.9.0+ you can run the above example with node file.js
See examples folder for more ways to use this module.
You can quickly test any website with phantomjs-node without needing to install the package.
$ npx phantom@latest https://stackoverflow.com/
The above command is very useful to test if your website works on older browsers. I frequently use it to ensure polyfills have been installed correctly.
In March 2018, the owner of PhantomJS announced suspension of development. There hasn't been any updates since. Since phantomjs-node is only a wrapper around phantomjs, then you should use it at your own risk because the underlying dependency is no longer supported. I plan to maintain this project until usage has dropped significantly.
Latest version of phantom does require Node v6.x and later. You can install with
$ npm install phantom --saveTo use version 3.x you need to have at least Node v5+. You can install it using
$ npm install phantom@3 --save$ npm install phantom@2 --saveCreating new phantom instances with phantom.create() can be slow. If
you are frequently creating new instances and destroying them, as a
result of HTTP requests for example, it might be worth creating a pool
of instances that are re-used.
See the phantom-pool module for more info.
To run the test suite, first install the dependencies, then run npm test:
$ npm install
$ npm testThis package is under development. Pull requests are welcomed. Please make sure tests are added for new functionalities and that your build does pass in TravisCI.
