Wait for browser to fully load page before next command?

Open HumbeBee opened this issue 5 months ago • 2 comments

Hi, thanks for creating this amazing app — it's been super useful.

I was wondering: is there a way to wait until the browser has fully loaded a page (after using the URL command), instead of relying on a fixed delay before the next command runs?

It would be great to have a way to detect page readiness or some sort of "wait until load complete" trigger.

Thanks!

I really like this suggestion. I'm going to dig into this and see if we can't extract information from the browser to know if it is loading or done loading. I see how this can be really useful.

Given all the asynchronous stuff going on with most pages these days it's pretty hard to know a page has finished loading even from within the page, let alone from outside the browser. https://webscrapingsite.com/blog/how-to-wait-for-page-to-fully-load-in-playwright/ has some discussion.
