我有这个HTML文件,test_xpath.htm
:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello World!</h1>
<div>
<a href="http://stackoverflow.com">Click me!</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
在此文件的文件夹中,我将PHP CLI> 5.4作为服务器运行,如下所示:
php -S localhost:8080
...因此HTML页面可从
http://localhost:8080/test_xpath.htm
获得。然后运行以下SlimerJS代码:
// run with:
// SLIMERJSLAUNCHER=/usr/bin/firefox46 /home/USERNAME/.nvm/versions/node/v4.0.0/lib/node_modules/casperjs/bin/casperjs --engine=slimerjs test_xpath.js
var casper = require('casper').create({
verbose: true,
logLevel: 'debug',
userAgent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/43.0',
viewportSize: {width: 1024, height: 768},
pageSettings: {
loadImages: false,//The script is much faster when this field is set to false
loadPlugins: false,
}
});
casper.on("url.changed", function(){
this.then(function(){
this.echo("URL changed " + this.getCurrentUrl()); //getTitle());
});
});
casper.on('remote.message', function(message) {
this.echo('remote message caught: ' + message);
});
casper.start().thenOpen("http://localhost:8080/test_xpath.htm", function() {
console.log("website opened");
});
// set this to true to run - causes "[error] [remote] findAll(): invalid selector provided "//*[text()="Click me!"]":SyntaxError: An invalid or illegal string was specified"
if (false) {
casper.waitForSelector('//*[text()="Click me!"]', function() {
this.echo("I'm sure //*[text()='Click me!'] is available in the DOM");
});
}
casper.then(function(){
this.evaluate(function(){
var aelem = __utils__.getElementByXPath('//*[text()="Click me!"]');
aelem.click();
});
});
casper.then(function(){
casper.capture('TestCapture.png');
});
casper.run();
如果我按原样运行JS代码-即
waitForSelector
部分被if(false)
禁用-那么一切运行正常。但是,如果通过将
if(false)
更改为if(true)
来启用该部分,则会得到以下信息:$ SLIMERJSLAUNCHER=/usr/bin/firefox46 /home/USERNAME/.nvm/versions/node/v4.0.0/lib/node_modules/casperjs/bin/casperjs --engine=slimerjs test_xpath.js

我真的不明白这一点,因为http://docs.casperjs.org/en/latest/modules/casper.html#waitforselector说:
等到与提供的选择器表达式匹配的元素存在于远程DOM中以处理任何下一步
...其中http://docs.casperjs.org/en/latest/selectors.html说:
CasperJS大量使用选择器以使用DOM,并且可以透明地使用CSS3或XPath表达式。
因此,XPath应该没问题-而且,我在以下位置使用了EXACT SAME XAME:
var aelem = __utils__.getElementByXPath('//*[text()="Click me!"]');
...并且在那里工作,但是失败了:
casper.waitForSelector('//*[text()="Click me!"]', function() { ....
为什么会发生-我哪里出问题了?如果可能,如何在
waitForSelector
中使用此XPath? 最佳答案
如果将字符串传递给waitForSelector()
函数,它将被解释为CSS选择器。要使其与XPath表达式一起使用,请在object中明确指定选择器type
:
selectorObject = {
type: 'xpath',
path: '//*[text()="Click me!"]'
}
casper.waitForSelector(selectorObject, function() {
// ...
});
您也可以使用
waitForText()
(示例here)解决该问题。
