Web scraping made simple.

• Built on the top of jsdom.
• It runs inline and external scripts on the page.
• You can add resource filter to not load certain external resources.
• Simple and fast, only 100 SLOC and it does not require Electron or Chromium.

yarn add tokio

const Tokio = require('tokio')

const tokio = new Tokio({
  url: 'https://some-website.com'
})

tokio.fetch().then(html => {
  console.log(html) //=> string

  // Query HTML with cheerio (server-side jQuery)
  // https://github.com/cheeriojs/cheerio
  const $ = tokio.query(html)
})

• Type: string
• Required: required

The URL to fetch.

• Type: number string
• Default: 50

Wait for certain time (in milliseconds) or dom element to show up.

• Type: boolean string

Instead of using options.wait, you can manually call window.__tokio_ready__() in your website to tell us that it's ready to be captured.

It can also be a string like i_am_ready so that you can call window.i_am_ready() instead.

• Type: resource => boolean

Whether to load certain resource. Check out the resource type.

• proxy: string A URL for a HTTP proxy to use for the requests.
• agent: http(s).Agent instance to use.
• agentOptions: The agent options; defaults to { keepAlive: true, keepAliveMsecs: 115000 }, see http api for more details.
• strictSSL: If true, requires SSL certificates be valid; defaults to true, see request module for more details.
• userAgent: The user agent string used in requests; defaults to Node.js (#process.platform#; U; rv:#process.version#)
• headers: An object giving any headers that will be used while loading the HTML from options.url, if applicable.

Inject variables to the global scope window.

• Type: () => Promise<string>

Fetch URL and return corresponding HTML. (JavaScript on this page will be evaluated.)

This is basically cheerio.load(html, opts).
