phantom - Fast NodeJS API for PhantomJS
========

[![Node Version][node-image]][node-url]
## Super easy to use
```js
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](examples) folder for more ways to use this module.
## Use it with npx
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](https://github.com/Modernizr/Modernizr/wiki/HTML5-Cross-browser-Polyfills) have been installed correctly.
## Deprecation warnings of PhantomJs
In March 2018, the owner of PhantomJS [announced](https://phantomjs.org/) 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.
## Installation
### Node v6.x and later
Latest version of phantom does **require Node v6.x and later**. You can install with
```bash
$ npm install phantom --save
```
### Node v5.x
To use version 3.x you need to have at least Node v5+. You can install it using
```bash
$ npm install phantom@3 --save
```
### Versions _older_ than 5.x, install with
```bash
$ npm install phantom@2 --save
```

## Pooling
Creating 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](https://github.com/blockai/phantom-pool) module
for more info.
## Tests
To run the test suite, first install the dependencies, then run `npm test`:
```bash
$ npm install
$ npm test
```
