Could someone describe the key differences to Phantomjs (indirectly referred to in credits via Casper.js)
Phantomjs has just recently stopped their Python support.
- zackzackzack 14y agoPhantom js has to run as it's own process, so no support for node or anything similar. This looks like it can run within something like django.
- treenyc 14y agoIs it possible to use Phantom JS or Ghost.py to access a web site that is using Facebook Connect? Just wonder if anyone has tried it yet.
- fpp 14y agoYou can use PhantomJS with Node e.g. with child_process and messages via stdout. Works pretty well. Running this in its own process context might actually be a benefit e.g. when you spawn multiple phantomjs browsers There is a project on github where this was taken a step further via dnode ( https://github.com/sgentle/phantomjs-node https://github.com/sgentle/phantomjs-node ) - you get access to the phantomjs objects, get/set properties and access the phantomjs api methods. Will certainly have a deeper look into ghost.py
