Phantomic

SemVer License

  • Pipes stdin to PhantomJS
  • Writes script console output to stdout
  • Writes script errors to stderr
  • Exit code 0 if nothing threw, otherwise 1

Install

npm install -g phantomic

Usage

Phantomic does not include PhantomJS itself. Make sure the phantomjs executable is in your PATH or specify with --phantomjs.

Usage: phantomic [options] [file]

Options:
    --debug                Launch the WebKit debugger in a browser
    --port <num>           Explicit port binding for temporary web server. If
                           no port is specified, a random free port is used.
    --phantomjs <path>     Use specified phantomjs binary
    --web-security <bool>  Enables PhantomJS web security and forbids
                           cross-domain XHR (default is true)
    --brout                Assume brout is part of the JS
    --ignore-ssl-errors <bool>  Tell PhantomJS to ignore SSL certificate errors
                                when network requests are made (default is false)
    --viewport-width <num>      Tell PhantomJS about the desired viewport width
    --viewport-height <num>     Tell PhantomJS about the desired viewport
                                height

Pipe any script to phantomic:

phantomic < ./test.js

Opening a file:

phantomic ./test.js

If you are using phantomic from a Makefile with a local install, you will have to include it in the PATH:

BIN = ./node_modules/.bin
PATH := $(BIN):$(PATH)

test:
  browserify ./test.js | phantomic

Debugging

Put a debugger; statement somewhere and run:

phantomic --debug < ./test.js

This will open the WebKit inspector in your browser.

Exit detection

By default, phantomic will report an error if anything was logged to console.error. Program termination is detected by observing delays in the event queue and the last log statement that was received.

To make exit detection more reliable, brout can be used. If brout is part of the given script, run phantomic with --brout to install handlers for the out, err and exit events. Also make sure process.exit(code) is called.

API

You can use phantomic from your own node scripts like this:

var phantomic = require('phantomic');
 
phantomic(process.stdin, {
  debug : false,
  port  : 0,
  brout : false,
  'web-security': false,
  'ignore-ssl-errors': true,
  'viewport-width': 1024,
  'viewport-height': 768
}, function (code) {
  process.exit(code);
}).pipe(process.stdout);

Run the test cases

npm install
make
