A JavaScript implementation of the W3C DOM.
$ npm install jsdom
see: mailing list
Bootstrapping a DOM is generally a difficult process involving many error prone steps. We didn't want jsdom to fall into the same trap and that is why a new method, jsdom.env()
, has been added in jsdom 0.2.0 which should make everyone's lives easier.
with URL
// Count all of the links from the nodejs build page
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
jsdom.env(
"http://nodejs.org/dist/",
["http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js"],
function (errors, window) {
console.log("there have been", window.$("a").length, "nodejs releases!");
}
);
or with raw HTML
// Run some jQuery on a html fragment
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
jsdom.env(
'<p><a class="the-link" href="https://github.com/tmpvar/jsdom">jsdom\'s Homepage</a></p>',
["http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js"],
function(errors, window) {
console.log("contents of a.the-link:", window.$("a.the-link").text());
}
);
or with a configuration object
// Print all of the news items on hackernews
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
jsdom.env({
html: "http://news.ycombinator.com/",
scripts: ["http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js"],
done: function (errors, window) {
var $ = window.$;
console.log("HN Links");
$("td.title:not(:last) a").each(function() {
console.log(" -", $(this).text());
});
}
});
or with raw JavaScript source
// Print all of the news items on hackernews
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
var fs = require("fs");
var jquery = fs.readFileSync("./jquery.js").toString();
jsdom.env({
html: "http://news.ycombinator.com/",
src: [jquery],
done: function (errors, window) {
var $ = window.$;
console.log("HN Links");
$("td.title:not(:last) a").each(function() {
console.log(" -", $(this).text());
});
}
});
jsdom.env
is built for ease of use, which is rare in the world of the DOM! Since the web has some absolutely horrible JavaScript on it, as of jsdom 0.2.0 jsdom.env
will not process external resources (scripts, images, etc). If you want to process the JavaScript use one of the methods below (jsdom.jsdom
or jsdom.jQueryify
)
jsdom.env(html, [scripts], [config], callback);
html
(required): may be a URL, HTML fragment, or file.scripts
(optional): may contain files or URLs.config
(optional): see below.callback
(required): takes two arguments:errors
: an array of errorswindow
: a brand new window
example:
jsdom.env(html, function (errors, window) {
// free memory associated with the window
window.close();
});
If you would like to specify a configuration object only:
jsdom.env(config);
config.html
: seehtml
above.config.scripts
: seescripts
above.config.src
: an array of JavaScript strings that will be evaluated against the resulting document. Similar toscripts
, but it accepts JavaScript instead of paths/URLs.config.done
: seecallback
above.config.document
:referer
: the new document will have this referercookie
: manually set a cookie value, e.g.'key=value; expires=Wed, Sep 21 2011 12:00:00 GMT; path=/'
config.features
: seeFlexibility
section below. Note: the default feature set for jsdom.env does not include fetching remote JavaScript and executing it. This is something that you will need to carefully enable yourself.
If you want to spawn a document/window and specify all sorts of options this is the section for you. This section covers the jsdom.jsdom
method:
var jsdom = require("jsdom").jsdom;
var doc = jsdom(markup, level, options);
var window = doc.createWindow();
-
markup
is an HTML/XML document to be parsed. You can also passnull
or an undefined value to get a basic document with empty<head>
and<body>
tags. Document fragments are also supported (including""
), and will behave as sanely as possible (e.g. the resulting document will lack thehead
,body
anddocumentElement
properties if the corresponding elements aren't included). -
level
isnull
(which means level3) by default, but you can pass another level if you'd like.var jsdom = require("jsdom"); var doc = jsdom.jsdom("<html><body></body></html>", jsdom.level(1, "core"));
-
options
see the Flexibility section below.
One of the goals of jsdom is to be as minimal and light as possible. This section details how someone can change the behavior of Document
s on the fly. These features are baked into the DOMImplementation
that every Document
has, and may be tweaked in two ways:
- When you create a new
Document
using the jsdom builder (require("jsdom").jsdom()
)
var jsdom = require("jsdom").jsdom;
var doc = jsdom("<html><body></body></html>", null, {
features: {
FetchExternalResources : ["img"]
}
});
Do note, that this will only affect the document that is currently being created. All other documents will use the defaults specified below (see: Default Features).
- Before creating any documents, you can modify the defaults for all future documents:
require("jsdom").defaultDocumentFeatures = {
FetchExternalResources: ["script"],
ProcessExternalResources: false
};
Default features are extremely important for jsdom as they lower the configuration requirement and present developers a set of consistent default behaviors. The following sections detail the available features, their defaults, and the values that jsdom uses.
FetchExternalResources
- Default:
["script"]
- Allowed:
["script", "img", "css", "frame", "iframe", "link"]
orfalse
Enables/disables fetching files over the file system/HTTP.
ProcessExternalResources
- Default:
["script"]
- Allowed:
["script"]
orfalse
Disabling this will disable script execution (currently only JavaScript).
SkipExternalResources
- Default:
false
- Allowed:
/url to be skipped/
orfalse
- Example:
/http:\/\/example.org/js/bad\.js/
Do not download and process resources with url matching a regular expression.
jsdom includes support for using the canvas package to extend any <canvas>
elements with the canvas API. To make this work, you need to include canvas as a dependency in your project, as a peer of jsdom. If jsdom can find the canvas package, it will use it, but if it's not present, then <canvas>
elements will behave like <div>
s.
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
var window = jsdom.createWindow();
console.log(window.document); // output: undefined
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
var doc = new (jsdom.level(1, "core").Document)();
console.log(doc.nodeName); // outputs: #document
var jsdom = require("jsdom").jsdom;
var document = jsdom("<html><head></head><body>hello world</body></html>");
var window = document.createWindow();
console.log(window.document.innerHTML);
// output: "<html><head></head><body>hello world</body></html>"
console.log(window.innerWidth);
// output: 1024
console.log(typeof window.document.getElementsByClassName);
// outputs: function
var jsdom = require("jsdom");
var window = jsdom.jsdom().createWindow();
jsdom.jQueryify(window, "http://code.jquery.com/jquery.js", function () {
window.$("body").append('<div class="testing">Hello World, It works</div>');
console.log(window.$(".testing").text());
});
var jsdom = require("jsdom").jsdom;
var window = jsdom().createWindow();
window.__myObject = { foo: "bar" };
var scriptEl = window.document.createElement("script");
scriptEl.src = "anotherScript.js";
window.document.body.appendChild(scriptEl);
// anotherScript.js will have the ability to read `window.__myObject`, even
// though it originated in Node!

First you'll want to npm install
. To run all the tests, use npm test
, which just calls node test/runner
.
Using test/runner
directly, you can slice and dice which tests your want to run from different levels. Usage is as follows:
test/runner --help
Run the jsdom test suite
Options:
-s, --suites suites that you want to run. ie: -s level1/core,1/html,html [string]
-f, --fail-fast stop on the first failed test
-h, --help show the help
-t, --tests choose the test cases to run. ie: -t jquery
