[Question] Can I watch for changes in a specific element?
See original GitHub issueHi!
I’m trying watch for changes in a certain div
that keeps getting new elements added to it.
I couldn’t seem to find a proper way of listening to such “change” event via the API, am I missing something?
Thanks in advance.
P.S: I though about using MutationObserver
but page.$$('.someClass')
isn’t returning a Node
type object (not to mention the workaround of using window
in a nodejs environment just to be able to use MutationObserver
).

There is no such API. Using MutationObserver is a good way to achieve this. Note that you have to evaluate the whole script in the page context:
Does this answer your question?
Thanks a lot for all the help!
I ended up using
page.exposeFunction()
to allow me to use the Node.js API like so:Hope this could help someone in the future 😄 Thanks again @dgozman !
