sailbot v1.1.115

sailbot

For simple web automation.

• Keeps selenium's async nature.
• Can open browser windows, let them stay opened and reattach to that window when running a separate script.
• Multiple concurrent/independent browsers.
• Seamless support working with sites with iframes.
• Waits until elements are loaded/visible (default) or loaded/hidden to perform actions.
• Only chrome supported.

Installation

npm install sailbot

Usage

// Example 1

let Sailbot = require('sailbot')
let Async = require('bluebird').coroutine

let go = Sailbot()

let func = Async(function* () {

    go.to('http://google.com')
    .get('#lst-ib').clear().write('wikipedia')

    let titles = yield go.getAll('h3 a').text()
    let links = yield go.getAll('h3 a').attribute('href')

    console.log(titles, links)

    go.quit()
})

func()


// Example 2

let options = {   // defaults:
    timeout: 30,
    port: 7055,
    dev: 'dev',   // pass this to keep a window opened (nodejs process running).
    id: 'id here'  // the previous process will console the id. Pass this in any new script.
}

let go = Sailbot(options)
let go2 = Sailbot()

let fn = Async(function* (val) {

    go.to('http://somesite.com')
    .switchTo(['frame1', 'child_frame'])
    .get('#id1').click()
    .get('#input').clear().write('Hello')  // almost all methods are chainable

    go2.to('http://somesite.com')  // this will run in parallel/separate browser window

    let y = yield go.getAll('#editlistinglink').attribute('value')  // returns array
    console.log(y)
    go.sleep(5000)

    go2.get('cssSelector').click()  // other stuff with go2 browser

    go.waitFor('#element').isVisible()
    .waitFor('#element2').isFound()
    go.driver.sleep(1000) // can use any native selenium functionality
    go.quit()

})
