Zombie.js - 下载文件支持

Question

I'm trying to handle download prompts in Zombie.js, looking through the API I don't see anything indicating how to do so.

Basically what I'm trying to do is navigate through an authentication required website, then click a button on the site (no href) that then automatically engages a download. The downloaded file will then be renamed and sent to a specified folder.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Answer 1

Zombie.js doesn't seem to provide a method to directly do what you want, but internally it uses request to download files, then emits a response event which you can listen for (see resources.coffee ):

var browser = new Zombie();

browser.on('response', function(request, response) {
    browser.response = response;
});

browser.visit('http://test.com/', function() {
    browser.clickLink('Download the file', function() {
        // the 'response' handler should have run by now
        var fileContents = browser.response.body;
    });
});

This seems to work pretty well for me.

Answer 2

possibly try:

http://phantomjs.org

you should be able to manipulate the dom...to download.

might have to write a separate script to do the file renaming.

As far as I know, and from taking a detailed look at the API of Zombie.js, I'd say no, this is not possible .

I know it's not the answer you hoped for, but truth is not always nice.
