Download file with phantomjs

I'm interested in committing some of my company's resources to adding this feature. Is anyone already working on it? If so, could my company sponsor your work? If not, we can assign it to one of our own people. I just want to avoid duplicating anyone else's work. I'm also interested in helping with this feature. I don't want to duplicate effort. Ideally we want to access the functionality from CasperJS as well. I'd love to see this fixed too. I saw vitallium has a fork with download support, as well as a few other fixes.

I wouldn't be doing anyone a favor if I messed with the C codebase. I wouldn't mind donating towards a bounty for this. This feature is under development. When it's ready, it'll be merged into the master tree.

I can't say when this feature will be ready. I'm also interested in this issue. Or is that altogether a different problem? FergusNelson that's a different problem, but much more easily solved using ghostscript, X11, ImageMagick, etc. I see that there are at least two attempts to address this issue on GitHub. Is one of those a more promising path forward than the other? What work is outstanding before it would be ready to merge upstream?

I rebased vitallium 's download-support branch on a recent master HEAD. I've been exercising it with a happy path test case , and it seems to be working fine.

I'd like to continue the work that vitallium started if there's more to do. I built the linux version of SeNaP 's fork in this link: phantomjs.

Same result and it gets the job done. Download ChromeDriver. I use Py3. The script waits for the to be present on the page then clicks it. If you don't wait for the element and are on an async site, the element you try to click might not be there yet. The download location is a folder relative to the scripts location.

The script checks that directory if the file is downloaded already with a second delay. If I am not wrong files should be. If you close the virtual framebuffer and driver before the download will not complete. The complete script looks like this:. If the button that you want to download has the file link, you are able to test downloading it using python code, because PhantonJs does not support a download by itself.

So, if your download button does not provide the file link, you're not able to test. To test using file link and phyton to assert that file exists , you can follow this topic. As I'm a C developer and testes, I don't know the better way to write the code in python without errors, but Im sure you can:. Basic http file downloading and saving to disk in python?

This works because Chrome automatically downloads the file and stores it in the Downloads file for you. This was easier than using PhantomJS. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group. Create a free Team What is Teams? Collectives on Stack Overflow.
