PhantomJS create page from string

Question

Is it possible to create a page from a string?

example:

html = \'blah blah blah\'

page.open(html,         


        

Answer 1

To do this you need to set the page content to your string.

phantom.create(function (ph) {
  ph.createPage(function (page) {
      page.set('viewportSize', {width:1440,height:900})

      //like this
      page.set('content', html);

      page.render(path_to_pdf, function() { 
        //now pdf is written to disk.
        ph.exit();
      });
  });
});

you need to use page.set() to set the html content.

as per https://github.com/sgentle/phantomjs-node#functionality-details

Properties can't be get/set directly.
Instead use page.get('version', callback) or page.set('viewportSize', {width:640,height:480}), etc.

Nested objects can be accessed by including dots in keys, such as page.set('settings.loadImages', false)
