Class: Playwright::Frame

Inherits:
PlaywrightApi show all
Defined in:
lib/playwright_api/frame.rb

Overview

At every point of time, page exposes its current frame tree via the [‘method: Page.mainFrame`] and

‘method: Frame.childFrames`

methods.

Frame object’s lifecycle is controlled by three events, dispatched on the page object:

  • ‘event: Page.frameAttached`

    • fired when the frame gets attached to the page. A Frame can be attached to the page only once.

  • ‘event: Page.frameNavigated`

    • fired when the frame commits navigation to a different URL.

  • ‘event: Page.frameDetached`

    • fired when the frame gets detached from the page. A Frame can be detached from the page only once.

An example of dumping frame tree:

“‘python sync from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

def run(playwright):

firefox = playwright.firefox
browser = firefox.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
page.goto("https://www.theverge.com")
dump_frame_tree(page.main_frame, "")
browser.close()

def dump_frame_tree(frame, indent):

print(indent + frame.name + '@' + frame.url)
for child in frame.child_frames:
    dump_frame_tree(child, indent + "    ")

with sync_playwright() as playwright:

run(playwright)

“‘

Instance Method Details

#add_script_tag(content: nil, path: nil, type: nil, url: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the added tag when the script’s onload fires or when the script content was injected into frame.

Adds a ‘<script>` tag into the page with the desired url or content.

end

#add_style_tag(content: nil, path: nil, url: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the added tag when the stylesheet’s onload fires or when the CSS content was injected into frame.

Adds a ‘<link rel=“stylesheet”>` tag into the page with the desired url or a `<style type=“text/css”>` tag with the content.

#check(selector, force: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ Object

This method checks an element matching selector by performing the following steps:

  1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.

  2. Ensure that matched element is a checkbox or a radio input. If not, this method throws. If the element is already checked, this method returns immediately.

  3. Wait for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.

  4. Scroll the element into view if needed.

  5. Use [‘property: Page.mouse`] to click in the center of the element.

  6. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.

  7. Ensure that the element is now checked. If not, this method throws.

When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

#click(selector, button: nil, clickCount: nil, delay: nil, force: nil, modifiers: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ Object

This method clicks an element matching selector by performing the following steps:

  1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.

  2. Wait for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.

  3. Scroll the element into view if needed.

  4. Use [‘property: Page.mouse`] to click in the center of the element, or the specified position.

  5. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.

When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

#dblclick(selector, button: nil, delay: nil, force: nil, modifiers: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ Object

This method double clicks an element matching selector by performing the following steps:

  1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.

  2. Wait for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.

  3. Scroll the element into view if needed.

  4. Use [‘property: Page.mouse`] to double click in the center of the element, or the specified position.

  5. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set. Note that if the first click of the ‘dblclick()` triggers a navigation event, this method will throw.

When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

NOTE: ‘frame.dblclick()` dispatches two click events and a single dblclick event.

#dispatch_event(selector, type, eventInit: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

The snippet below dispatches the click event on the element. Regardless of the visibility state of the element, click is dispatched. This is equivalent to calling [element.click()](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement/click).

Usage

“‘python sync frame.dispatch_event(“button#submit”, “click”) “`

Under the hood, it creates an instance of an event based on the given type, initializes it with eventInit properties and dispatches it on the element. Events are composed, cancelable and bubble by default.

Since eventInit is event-specific, please refer to the events documentation for the lists of initial properties:

You can also specify JSHandle as the property value if you want live objects to be passed into the event:

“‘python sync # note you can only create data_transfer in chromium and firefox data_transfer = frame.evaluate_handle(“new DataTransfer()”) frame.dispatch_event(“#source”, “dragstart”, { “dataTransfer”: data_transfer }) “`

end

#eval_on_selector(selector, expression, arg: nil, strict: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the return value of expression.

The method finds an element matching the specified selector within the frame and passes it as a first argument to expression. If no elements match the selector, the method throws an error.

If expression returns a [Promise], then [‘method: Frame.evalOnSelector`] would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

Usage

“‘python sync search_value = frame.eval_on_selector(“#search”, “el => el.value”) preload_href = frame.eval_on_selector(“link“, ”el => el.href“) html = frame.eval_on_selector(”.main-container“, ”(e, suffix) => e.outerHTML + suffix“, ”hello“) “`

end

#eval_on_selector_all(selector, expression, arg: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the return value of expression.

The method finds all elements matching the specified selector within the frame and passes an array of matched elements as a first argument to expression.

If expression returns a [Promise], then [‘method: Frame.evalOnSelectorAll`] would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

Usage

“‘python sync divs_counts = frame.eval_on_selector_all(“div”, “(divs, min) => divs.length >= min”, 10) “`

  wrap_impl(@impl.eval_on_selector_all(unwrap_impl(selector), unwrap_impl(expression), arg: unwrap_impl(arg)))
end

#evaluate(expression, arg: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the return value of expression.

If the function passed to the [‘method: Frame.evaluate`] returns a [Promise], then [`method: Frame.evaluate`] would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

If the function passed to the [‘method: Frame.evaluate`] returns a non- value, then

‘method: Frame.evaluate`

returns undefined. Playwright also supports transferring some

additional values that are not serializable by JSON: -0, NaN, Infinity, -Infinity.

Usage

“‘python sync result = frame.evaluate(“([x, y]) => Promise.resolve(x * y)”, [7, 8]) print(result) # prints “56” “`

A string can also be passed in instead of a function.

“‘python sync print(frame.evaluate(“1 + 2”)) # prints “3” x = 10 print(frame.evaluate(f“1 + x”)) # prints “11” “`

ElementHandle instances can be passed as an argument to the [‘method: Frame.evaluate`]:

“‘python sync body_handle = frame.evaluate(“document.body”) html = frame.evaluate(“([body, suffix]) => body.innerHTML + suffix”, [body_handle, “hello”]) body_handle.dispose() “`

def evaluate(expression, arg: nil)
  wrap_impl(@impl.evaluate(unwrap_impl(expression), arg: unwrap_impl(arg)))
end

#evaluate_handle(expression, arg: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the return value of expression as a JSHandle.

The only difference between [‘method: Frame.evaluate`] and [`method: Frame.evaluateHandle`] is that

‘method: Frame.evaluateHandle`

returns JSHandle.

If the function, passed to the [‘method: Frame.evaluateHandle`], returns a [Promise], then

‘method: Frame.evaluateHandle`

would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.

Usage

“‘python sync a_window_handle = frame.evaluate_handle(“Promise.resolve(window)”) a_window_handle # handle for the window object. “`

A string can also be passed in instead of a function.

“‘python sync a_handle = page.evaluate_handle(“document”) # handle for the “document” “`

JSHandle instances can be passed as an argument to the [‘method: Frame.evaluateHandle`]:

“‘python sync a_handle = page.evaluate_handle(“document.body”) result_handle = page.evaluate_handle(“body => body.innerHTML”, a_handle) print(result_handle.json_value()) result_handle.dispose() “`

end

#expect_navigation(timeout: nil, url: nil, waitUntil: nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Waits for the frame navigation and returns the main resource response. In case of multiple redirects, the navigation will resolve with the response of the last redirect. In case of navigation to a different anchor or navigation due to History API usage, the navigation will resolve with null.

Usage

This method waits for the frame to navigate to a new URL. It is useful for when you run code which will indirectly cause the frame to navigate. Consider this example:

“‘python sync with frame.expect_navigation():

frame.click("a.delayed-navigation") # clicking the link will indirectly cause a navigation

# Resolves after navigation has finished “‘

NOTE: Usage of the [History API](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/History_API) to change the URL is considered a navigation.

# File 'lib/playwright_api/frame.rb', line 884

def expect_navigation(timeout: nil, url: nil, waitUntil: nil, &block)
  wrap_impl(@impl.expect_navigation(timeout: unwrap_impl(timeout), url: unwrap_impl(url), waitUntil: unwrap_impl(waitUntil), &wrap_block_call(block)))
end

#fill(selector, value, force: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

This method waits for an element matching selector, waits for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks, focuses the element, fills it and triggers an input event after filling. Note that you can pass an empty string to clear the input field.

If the target element is not an ‘<input>`, `<textarea>` or [contenteditable] element, this method throws an error. However, if the element is inside the `<label>` element that has an associated [control](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLLabelElement/control), the control will be filled instead.

To send fine-grained keyboard events, use [‘method: Frame.type`].

end

#focus(selector, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

This method fetches an element with selector and focuses it. If there’s no element matching selector, the method waits until a matching element appears in the DOM.

end

#frame_element ⇒ Object

Returns the frame or iframe element handle which corresponds to this frame.

This is an inverse of [‘method: ElementHandle.contentFrame`]. Note that returned handle actually belongs to the parent frame.

This method throws an error if the frame has been detached before ‘frameElement()` returns.

Usage

“‘python sync frame_element = frame.frame_element() content_frame = frame_element.content_frame() assert frame == content_frame “`

end

#frame_locator(selector) ⇒ Object

When working with iframes, you can create a frame locator that will enter the iframe and allow selecting elements in that iframe.

Usage

Following snippet locates element with text “Submit” in the iframe with id my-frame, like ‘<iframe id=“my-frame”>`:

“‘python sync locator = frame.frame_locator(“#my-iframe”).get_by_text(“Submit”) locator.click() “`

end

#get_by_alt_text(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Object

Allows locating elements by their alt text. For example, this method will find the image by alt text “Castle”:

“‘html <img alt=’Castle’> “‘



368
369
370
 
# File 'lib/playwright_api/frame.rb', line 368

def get_by_alt_text(text, exact: nil)
  wrap_impl(@impl.get_by_alt_text(unwrap_impl(text), exact: unwrap_impl(exact)))
end

#get_by_label(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Object

Allows locating input elements by the text of the associated label. For example, this method will find the input by label text “Password” in the following DOM:

“‘html <label for=“password-input”>Password:</label> <input id=“password-input”> “`



379

end

#get_by_placeholder(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Object

Allows locating input elements by the placeholder text. For example, this method will find the input by placeholder “Country”:

“‘html <input placeholder=“Country”> “`

end

#get_by_role(role, checked: nil, disabled: nil, exact: nil, expanded: nil, includeHidden: nil, level: nil, name: nil, pressed: nil, selected: nil) ⇒ Object

Allows locating elements by their [ARIA role](www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#roles), [ARIA attributes](www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#aria-attributes) and [accessible name](w3c.github.io/accname/#dfn-accessible-name). Note that role selector **does not replace** accessibility audits and conformance tests, but rather gives early feedback about the ARIA guidelines.

Note that many html elements have an implicitly [defined role](w3c.github.io/html-aam/#html-element-role-mappings) that is recognized by the role selector. You can find all the [supported roles here](www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#role_definitions). ARIA guidelines **do not recommend** duplicating implicit roles and attributes by setting role and/or aria-* attributes to default values.

end

#get_by_text(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Object

Allows locating elements that contain given text. Consider the following DOM structure:

“‘html <div>Hello <span>world</span></div> <div>Hello</div> “`

You can locate by text substring, exact string, or a regular expression:

“‘python sync # Matches <span> page.get_by_text(“world”)

# Matches first <div> page.get_by_text(“Hello world”)

# Matches second <div> page.get_by_text(“Hello”, exact=True)

# Matches both <div>s page.get_by_text(re.compile(“Hello”))

# Matches second <div> page.get_by_text(re.compile(“^hello$”, re.IGNORECASE)) “‘

See also [‘method: Locator.filter`] that allows to match by another criteria, like an accessible role, and then filter by the text content.

NOTE: Matching by text always normalizes whitespace, even with exact match. For example, it turns multiple spaces into one, turns line breaks into spaces and ignores leading and trailing whitespace.

NOTE: Input elements of the type button and submit are matched by their value instead of the text content. For example, locating by text ‘“Log in”` matches `<input type=button value=“Log in”>`.

end

#get_by_title(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Object

#goto(url, referer: nil, timeout: nil, waitUntil: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns the main resource response. In case of multiple redirects, the navigation will resolve with the response of the last redirect.

The method will throw an error if:

  • there’s an SSL error (e.g. in case of self-signed certificates).

  • target URL is invalid.

  • the timeout is exceeded during navigation.

  • the remote server does not respond or is unreachable.

  • the main resource failed to load.

The method will not throw an error when any valid HTTP status code is returned by the remote server, including 404 “Not Found” and 500 “Internal Server Error”. The status code for such responses can be retrieved by calling [‘method: Response.status`].

NOTE: The method either throws an error or returns a main resource response. The only exceptions are navigation to about:blank or navigation to the same URL with a different hash, which would succeed and return null.

NOTE: Headless mode doesn’t support navigation to a PDF document. See the [upstream issue](bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=761295).

#hover(selector, force: nil, modifiers: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ Object

This method hovers over an element matching selector by performing the following steps:

  1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.

  2. Wait for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.

  3. Scroll the element into view if needed.

  4. Use [‘property: Page.mouse`] to hover over the center of the element, or the specified position.

  5. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.

When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

#locator(selector, has: nil, hasText: nil) ⇒ Object

The method returns an element locator that can be used to perform actions on this page / frame. Locator is resolved to the element immediately before performing an action, so a series of actions on the same locator can in fact be performed on different DOM elements. That would happen if the DOM structure between those actions has changed.

key can specify the intended [keyboardEvent.key](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/key) value or a single character to generate the text for. A superset of the key values can be found [here](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/KeyboardEvent/key/Key_Values). Examples of the keys are:

F1 - F12, Digit0- Digit9, KeyA- KeyZ, Backquote, Minus, Equal, Backslash, Backspace, Tab, Delete, Escape, ArrowDown, End, Enter, Home, Insert, PageDown, PageUp, ArrowRight, ArrowUp, etc.

Following modification shortcuts are also supported: Shift, Control, Alt, Meta, ShiftLeft.

Holding down Shift will type the text that corresponds to the key in the upper case.

If key is a single character, it is case-sensitive, so the values a and A will generate different respective texts.

Shortcuts such as ‘key: “Control+o”` or `key: “Control+Shift+T”` are supported as well. When specified with the modifier, modifier is pressed and being held while the subsequent key is being pressed.

#select_option(selector, element: nil, index: nil, value: nil, label: nil, force: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

This method waits for an element matching selector, waits for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks, waits until all specified options are present in the ‘<select>` element and selects these options.

If the target element is not a ‘<select>` element, this method throws an error. However, if the element is inside the `<label>` element that has an associated [control](developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLLabelElement/control), the control will be used instead.

Returns the array of option values that have been successfully selected.

Triggers a change and input event once all the provided options have been selected.

Usage

“‘python sync # single selection matching the value frame.select_option(“select#colors”, “blue”) # single selection matching both the label frame.select_option(“select#colors”, label=“blue”) # multiple selection frame.select_option(“select#colors”, value=[“red”, “green”, “blue”]) “`

#set_checked(selector, checked, force: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ Object

This method checks or unchecks an element matching selector by performing the following steps:

  1. Find an element matching selector. If there is none, wait until a matching element is attached to the DOM.

  2. Ensure that matched element is a checkbox or a radio input. If not, this method throws.

  3. If the element already has the right checked state, this method returns immediately.

  4. Wait for [actionability](../actionability.md) checks on the matched element, unless force option is set. If the element is detached during the checks, the whole action is retried.

  5. Scroll the element into view if needed.

  6. Use [‘property: Page.mouse`] to click in the center of the element.

  7. Wait for initiated navigations to either succeed or fail, unless noWaitAfter option is set.

  8. Ensure that the element is now checked or unchecked. If not, this method throws.

When all steps combined have not finished during the specified timeout, this method throws a TimeoutError. Passing zero timeout disables this.

#wait_for_function(expression, arg: nil, polling: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns when the expression returns a truthy value, returns that value.

Usage

The [‘method: Frame.waitForFunction`] can be used to observe viewport size change:

“‘python sync from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

def run(playwright):

webkit = playwright.webkit
browser = webkit.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
page.evaluate("window.x = 0; setTimeout(() => { window.x = 100 }, 1000);")
page.main_frame.wait_for_function("() => window.x > 0")
browser.close()

with sync_playwright() as playwright:

run(playwright)

“‘

To pass an argument to the predicate of frame.waitForFunction function:

“‘python sync selector = “.foo” frame.wait_for_function(“selector => !!document.querySelector(selector)”, selector) “`

end

#wait_for_load_state(state: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

Waits for the required load state to be reached.

This returns when the frame reaches a required load state, load by default. The navigation must have been committed when this method is called. If current document has already reached the required state, resolves immediately.

Usage

“‘python sync frame.click(“button”) # click triggers navigation. frame.wait_for_load_state() # the promise resolves after “load” event. “`

863
864
 
# File 'lib/playwright_api/frame.rb', line 862

def wait_for_load_state(state: nil, timeout: nil)
  wrap_impl(@impl.wait_for_load_state(state: unwrap_impl(state), timeout: unwrap_impl(timeout)))
end

#wait_for_selector(selector, state: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ Object

Returns when element specified by selector satisfies state option. Returns null if waiting for hidden or detached.

NOTE: Playwright automatically waits for element to be ready before performing an action. Using Locator objects and web-first assertions make the code wait-for-selector-free.

Wait for the selector to satisfy state option (either appear/disappear from dom, or become visible/hidden). If at the moment of calling the method selector already satisfies the condition, the method will return immediately. If the selector doesn’t satisfy the condition for the timeout milliseconds, the function will throw.

Usage

This method works across navigations:

“‘python sync from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

def run(playwright):

chromium = playwright.chromium
browser = chromium.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
for current_url in ["https://google.com", "https://bbc.com"]:
    page.goto(current_url, wait_until="domcontentloaded")
    element = page.main_frame.wait_for_selector("img")
    print("Loaded image: " + str(element.get_attribute("src")))
browser.close()

with sync_playwright() as playwright:

run(playwright)

“‘
