Class: Playwright::Frame

Inherits:
PlaywrightApi show all
Defined in:
lib/playwright_api/frame.rb,
sig/playwright.rbs

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:

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright, Playwright

def run(playwright: 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)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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 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. 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.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • position: (Hash[untyped, untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • trial: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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 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) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

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 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. 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) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

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().

Usage

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:

# 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 })

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • type_ (String)
  • eventInit: (Object) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

#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

search_value = frame.eval_on_selector("#search", "el => el.value")
preload_href = frame.eval_on_selector("link[rel=preload]", "el => el.href")
html = frame.eval_on_selector(".main-container", "(e, suffix) => e.outerHTML + suffix", "hello")

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • expression (String)
  • arg: (Object) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

  • (Object)

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

divs_counts = frame.eval_on_selector_all("div", "(divs, min) => divs.length >= min", 10)

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • expression (String)
  • arg: (Object) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

  • (Object)

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-[Serializable] 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

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.

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]:

body_handle = frame.evaluate_handle("document.body")
html = frame.evaluate("([body, suffix]) => body.innerHTML + suffix", [body_handle, "hello"])
body_handle.dispose()

Parameters:

  • expression (String)
  • arg: (Object) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

  • (Object)

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

#evaluate_handle(expression, arg: nil) ⇒ JSHandle

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

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.

a_handle = frame.evaluate_handle("document") # handle for the "document"

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

a_handle = frame.evaluate_handle("document.body")
result_handle = frame.evaluate_handle("body => body.innerHTML", a_handle)
print(result_handle.json_value())
result_handle.dispose()

Parameters:

  • expression (String)
  • arg: (Object) (defaults to: nil)

#expect_navigation(timeout: nil, url: nil, waitUntil: nil) { ... } ⇒ nil, Response

Deprecated.

This method is inherently racy, please use [method: Frame.waitForURL] instead.

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:

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 to change the URL is considered a navigation.

Parameters:

  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • url: (String, Regexp, function) (defaults to: nil)
  • waitUntil: ("load", "domcontentloaded", "networkidle", "commit") (defaults to: nil)

Yields:

Yield Returns:

  • (void)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

This method waits for an element matching selector, waits for actionability 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, the control will be filled instead.

To send fine-grained keyboard events, use [method: Locator.pressSequentially].

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • value (String)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

#frame_elementElementHandle

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

frame_element = frame.frame_element()
content_frame = frame_element.content_frame()
assert frame == content_frame

Returns:

#frame_locator(selector) ⇒ FrameLocator

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">:

locator = frame.frame_locator("#my-iframe").get_by_text("Submit")
locator.click()

Parameters:

  • selector (String)

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

Allows locating elements by their ARIA role, ARIA attributes and accessible name.

Usage

Consider the following DOM structure.

<h3>Sign up</h3>
<label>
  <input type="checkbox" /> Subscribe
</label>
<br/>
<button>Submit</button>

You can locate each element by its implicit role:

expect(page.get_by_role("heading", name="Sign up")).to_be_visible()

page.get_by_role("checkbox", name="Subscribe").check()

page.get_by_role("button", name=re.compile("submit", re.IGNORECASE)).click()

Details

Role selector does not replace accessibility audits and conformance tests, but rather gives early feedback about the ARIA guidelines.

Many html elements have an implicitly defined role that is recognized by the role selector. You can find all the supported roles here. ARIA guidelines do not recommend duplicating implicit roles and attributes by setting role and/or aria-* attributes to default values.

Parameters:

  • role ("alert", "alertdialog", "application", "article", "banner", "blockquote", "button", "caption", "cell", "checkbox", "code", "columnheader", "combobox", "complementary", "contentinfo", "definition", "deletion", "dialog", "directory", "document", "emphasis", "feed", "figure", "form", "generic", "grid", "gridcell", "group", "heading", "img", "insertion", "link", "list", "listbox", "listitem", "log", "main", "marquee", "math", "meter", "menu", "menubar", "menuitem", "menuitemcheckbox", "menuitemradio", "navigation", "none", "note", "option", "paragraph", "presentation", "progressbar", "radio", "radiogroup", "region", "row", "rowgroup", "rowheader", "scrollbar", "search", "searchbox", "separator", "slider", "spinbutton", "status", "strong", "subscript", "superscript", "switch", "tab", "table", "tablist", "tabpanel", "term", "textbox", "time", "timer", "toolbar", "tooltip", "tree", "treegrid", "treeitem")

#get_by_test_id(testId) ⇒ Locator Also known as: get_by_testid

Locate element by the test id.

Usage

Consider the following DOM structure.

<button data-testid="directions">Itinéraire</button>

You can locate the element by its test id:

page.get_by_test_id("directions").click()

Details

By default, the data-testid attribute is used as a test id. Use [method: Selectors.setTestIdAttribute] to configure a different test id attribute if necessary.

Parameters:

  • testId (String, Regexp)

Returns:

# File 'lib/playwright_api/frame.rb', line 489

def get_by_test_id(testId)
  wrap_impl(@impl.get_by_test_id(unwrap_impl(testId)))
end

#get_by_text(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Locator

Allows locating elements that contain given text.

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

Usage

Consider the following DOM structure:

<div>Hello <span>world</span></div>
<div>Hello</div>

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

# 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))

Details

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.

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">.

Parameters:

  • text (String, Regexp)
  • exact: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

#get_by_title(text, exact: nil) ⇒ Locator

Allows locating elements by their title attribute.

Usage

Consider the following DOM structure.

<span title='Issues count'>25 issues</span>

You can check the issues count after locating it by the title text:

expect(page.get_by_title("Issues count")).to_have_text("25 issues")

Parameters:

  • text (String, Regexp)
  • exact: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

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

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.

Parameters:

  • url (String)
  • referer: (String) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • waitUntil: ("load", "domcontentloaded", "networkidle", "commit") (defaults to: nil)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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 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.

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

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • modifiers: (Array[untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • position: (Hash[untyped, untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

#locator(selector, has: nil, hasNot: nil, hasNotText: nil, hasText: nil) ⇒ Locator

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.

#press(selector, key, delay: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

key can specify the intended keyboardEvent.key value or a single character to generate the text for. A superset of the key values can be found here. 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, ControlOrMeta. ControlOrMeta resolves to Control on Windows and Linux and to Meta on macOS.

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", key: "Control++ 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.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • key (String)
  • delay: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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 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. 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.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • checked (Boolean)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • position: (Hash[untyped, untyped]) (defaults to: nil)

#set_input_files(selector, files, noWaitAfter: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Sets the value of the file input to these file paths or files. If some of the filePaths are relative paths, then they are resolved relative to the current working directory. For empty array, clears the selected files.

This method expects selector to point to an input element. However, if the element is inside the <label> element that has an associated control, targets the control instead.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • files ((String | File), Array[untyped], Hash[untyped, untyped], Array[untyped])
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

#tap_point(selector, force: nil, modifiers: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

This method taps 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 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.touchscreen] to tap the center of the element, or the specified position.

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

NOTE: frame.tap() requires that the hasTouch option of the browser context be set to true.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • modifiers: (Array[untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • position: (Hash[untyped, untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • trial: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

#type(selector, text, delay: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil) ⇒ void

Deprecated.

In most cases, you should use [method: Locator.fill] instead. You only need to press keys one by one if there is special keyboard handling on the page - in this case use [method: Locator.pressSequentially].

This method returns an undefined value.

Sends a keydown, keypress/input, and keyup event for each character in the text. frame.type can be used to send fine-grained keyboard events. To fill values in form fields, use [method: Frame.fill].

To press a special key, like Control or ArrowDown, use [method: Keyboard.press].

Usage

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • text (String)
  • delay: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

#uncheck(selector, force: nil, noWaitAfter: nil, position: nil, strict: nil, timeout: nil, trial: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

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 unchecked, this method returns immediately.
  3. Wait for actionability 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. Ensure that the element is now 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.

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • force: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • noWaitAfter: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • position: (Hash[untyped, untyped]) (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)

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

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

Usage

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

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright, Playwright

def run(playwright: 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:

selector = ".foo"
frame.wait_for_function("selector => !!document.querySelector(selector)", selector)

Parameters:

  • expression (String)
  • arg: (Object) (defaults to: nil)
  • polling: (Float, "raf") (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

end

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

This method returns an undefined value.

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.

NOTE: Most of the time, this method is not needed because Playwright auto-waits before every action.

Usage

frame.click("button") # click triggers navigation.
frame.wait_for_load_state() # the promise resolves after "load" event.

Parameters:

  • state: ("load", "domcontentloaded", "networkidle") (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

# File 'lib/playwright_api/frame.rb', line 958

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) ⇒ nil, ElementHandle

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:

from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright, Playwright

def run(playwright: 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)

Parameters:

  • selector (String)
  • state: ("attached", "detached", "visible", "hidden") (defaults to: nil)
  • strict: (Boolean) (defaults to: nil)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)

Returns:

end

#wait_for_timeout(timeout) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Waits for the given timeout in milliseconds.

Note that frame.waitForTimeout() should only be used for debugging. Tests using the timer in production are going to be flaky. Use signals such as network events, selectors becoming visible and others instead.

Parameters:

  • timeout (Float)

#wait_for_url(url, timeout: nil, waitUntil: nil) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Waits for the frame to navigate to the given URL.

Usage

frame.click("a.delayed-navigation") # clicking the link will indirectly cause a navigation
frame.wait_for_url("**/target.html")

Parameters:

  • url (String, Regexp, function)
  • timeout: (Float) (defaults to: nil)
  • waitUntil: ("load", "domcontentloaded", "networkidle", "commit") (defaults to: nil)
