### TECHNOLOGIES












## TAGS

## Purpose

Parse links and information from OneTab. Displays categories in console. Uses vanilla JavaScript ES6.

![OneTab logo](img/logoPic-onetab.png)

## Usage

1. Open OneTab page in a browser and copy-paste the code in `scraper.js` into the console and run it (press Enter).

2. To save/archive the links results use code inspector in browser to grab the "body" tag and contents, then paste that into a new document and save it.

## Requires

* Browser opened to a YouTube video with developer console exposed.

## NOTES & CAVEATS

* _**_This README is in-progress and under construction._**_

* Can't	inject jQuery anymore due to "Content Security Policy", so this version use vanilla JavaScript ES6.

## FUTURE

Future plans include:

- [ ] Make searchable via JavaScript `match()` or `RegExp()`

- [ ] Consider pros/cons of async/await

- [ ] Write results to .htm file and auto execute in new browser tab

- [ ] Save file as CSV

- [ ] Make remote (Puppeteer? Cheerio?) so copy-paste not required
