SecretAgent

SecretAgent is a web browser that's built for scraping.

• Built for scraping - it's the first modern headless browsers designed specifically for scraping instead of just automated testing.
• Designed for web developers - We've recreated a fully compliant DOM directly in NodeJS allowing you bypass the headaches of previous scraper tools.
• Powered by Chrome - The powerful Chrome engine sits under the hood, allowing for lightning fast rendering.
• Emulates any modern browser - BrowserEmulators make it easy to disguise your script as practically any browser.
• Avoids detection along the entire stack - Don't be blocked because of TLS fingerprints in your networking stack.

Installation

npm i --save secret-agent

or

yarn add secret-agent

Usage

SecretAgent provides access to the W3C DOM specification without the need for Puppeteer's complicated evaluate callbacks and multi-context switching:

const agent = require('secret-agent');

(async () => {
  await agent.goto('https://example.org');
  const title = await agent.document.title;
  const intro = await agent.document.querySelector('p').textContent;
  await agent.close();
})();
