NAME

my $wight = Wight->new;

$wight->visit('http://example.com/');
$wight->evaluate('document.title'); # => evaluates JavaScript expression

$wight->find('//a[@rel="next"]')->click;

DESCRIPTION

Wight provides methods for operating PhantomJS from Perl, especially intended to be used testing web application.

For client side scripting, uses poltergeist's JavaScript.

WARNING

This module is currently under development and interfaces are subject to change.

INITIALIZATION

my $wight = Wight->new(%args);

%args accepts keys below:

  • autorun => 1

    Automatically runs PhantomJS and waits for it. Defaults to true, otherwise you will call handshake explicitly.

  • phantomjs => 'phantomjs'

    Specifies PhantomJS command. Defaults to 'phantomjs'.

  • cookie_jar => $HTTP_Cookies

    Supply browser cookies.

BROWSER METHODS

Every method croaks if the operation failed.

  • $wight->visit($path)

    Opens a web page.

  • my $result = $wight->evaluate($javascript_expression)

    Evaluates a JavaScript expression and returns its result.

  • $wight->execute($javascript_statement)

    Executes JavaScript statements.

  • my $node = $wight->find($xpath)

  • my @nodes = $wight->find($xpath)

    Finds a node within current page and returns a (list of) Wight::Node.

  • $wight->render($file)

    Renders current page to local file.

  • $wight->set_headers(\%headers)
