Pending Requests Puppeteer

| Introduction | Installation | Usage | Contribute |

Introduction

Pending Requests Puppeteer is a tool that detect when there are HTML requests not yet finished. You can use it to have an HTML request count or to wait for all HTTP requests to be finished.

Installation

To install with yarn :

yarn add @mailbutler/pending-requests-puppeteer -D

To install with npm :

npm install @mailbutler/pending-requests-puppeteer --save-dev

Usage

wait for all requests requests to be finished

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
const { PendingRequests } = require('pending-requests-puppeteer');

const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
  headless: true,
  args,
});

const page = await browser.newPage();
const pendingRequests = new PendingRequests(page, 'xhr');
await page.goto(`http://page-with-xhr`);
// Here all xhr requests are not finished
await pendingRequests.waitForAllRequestsFinished();
// Here all xhr requests are finished

Get the number of pending requests

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
const { PendingRequests } = require('pending-requests-puppeteer');

const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
  headless: true,
  args,
});

const page = await browser.newPage();
const pendingRequests = new PendingRequests(page, 'xhr');
await page.goto(`http://page-with-xhr`);
console.log(pendingXHR.pendingRequestCount());
// Display the number of xhr pending

Usage with Promise.race

If you need to wait for HTTP requests, but not longer than a specific time, you can race pending-requests-puppeteer and setTimeout in a Promise.race.

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
const { PendingRequests } = require('pending-requests-puppeteer');

const browser = await puppeteer.launch({
  headless: true,
  args,
});

const page = await browser.newPage();
const pendingRequests = new PendingRequests(page, 'xhr');
await page.goto(`http://page-with-xhr`);
// We will wait max 1 seconde for xhrs
await Promise.race([
  pendingRequests.waitForAllRequestsFinished(),
  new Promise(resolve => {
    setTimeout(resolve, 1000);
  }),
]);
console.log(pendingRequests.pendingRequestCount());
// May or may not have pending xhrs

Wait for all xhr triggered by all the events of the page

You can use this lib to wait for xhr triggered by any event from the UI (click, typing, ...).

Exemple :

const pendingRequests = new PendingRequests(page, 'xhr');
await page.goto(`http://page-with-xhr`);
await page.click('.my-selector'); // This action will trigger some xhr
// Here all xhr requests triggered by the click are not finished
await pendingRequests.waitForAllRequestsFinished();
// Here all xhr requests triggered by the click are finished
// You can then perform an other xhr producer event
await page.click('.my-selector2'); // This action will trigger some xhr
// You can rewait them
await pendingRequests.waitForAllRequestsFinished();

This mode is usefull to test SPA, you d'ont have to recreate a new instance at each time. The request listeners will be deleted when you leave the page.

Wait for all requests triggered by an event of the page

with waitOnceForAllRequestsFinished you can wait until all the HTTP requests are finished and them remove the listeners. This is usefull when waitForAllRequestsFinished has a leaking behaviour for you.

Exemple :

const pendingRequests = new PendingRequests(page, 'xhr');
await page.goto(`http://page-with-xhr`);
await page.click('.my-selector'); // This action will trigger some xhr
// Here all xhr requests triggered by the click are not finished
await pendingRequests.waitOnceForAllRequestsFinished();
// Here all xhr requests triggered by the click are finished
// All pendingRequests listeners are removed here too
