This change started as a small change to pull types from DefinitelyTyped over to
Puppeteer for the `evaluateHandle` function but instead ended up also fixing
what looks to be a long standing issue with our existing documentation.
`evaluateHandle` can in fact return an `ElementHandle` rather than a `JSHandle`.
Note that `ElementHandle` extends `JSHandle` so whilst the docs are technically
correct (all ElementHandles are JSHandles) it's confusing because JSHandles
don't have methods like `click` on them, but ElementHandles do.
if you return something that is an HTML element:
```
const button = page.evaluateHandle(() => document.querySelector('button'));
// this is an ElementHandle, not a JSHandle
```
Therefore I've updated the original docs and added a large explanation to the
TSDoc for `page.evaluateHandle`.
In TypeScript land we'll assume the function will return a `JSHandle` but you
can tell TS otherwise via the generic argument, which can only be `JSHandle`
(the default) or `ElementHandle`:
```
const button = page.evaluateHandle<ElementHandle>(() => document.querySelector('button'));
```
* chore: Don't store revisions in `package.json`
It's quite messy to have to require the `package.json` file in multiple
places purely to find out what revision of a given browser we want to
use. We can also achieve better type safety by placing it in an actual
source file.
This commit makes that change and also tidies up our reliance on
`package.json` within the source code generally; we now only use it to
find the location of the Puppeteer root such that we know where to
install downloaded browsers to.
To avoid using `package.json` to parse the name of the module, we also
now explicitly have an entry point for the Puppeteer module and the
Puppeter Core module. This will make it easier in the future to ship
less code as part of core (e.g. core never needs to download a browser,
so why ship that code?). Core can also then not have any revisions based
info contained in it.
The test install script has also been updated to ensure that
puppeteer-core can be installed correctly too.
Finally, the `install` script has been moved to TypeScript for nicer
typechecking and safety. The functionality of it has not changed.
* feat(types): improve typing of `.evaluate()`
This is the start of the work to take the types from the
`@types/puppeteer` repository and port them into our repo so we can ship
our built-in types out the box.
This change types the `evaluate` function properly. It takes a generic
type which is the type of the function you're passing, and the arguments
and the return that you get back from the `evaluate` call are typed
correctly.

Without the API-* dependencies pinned different versions may be
installed on local machines vs CI. One of the checks we do is to check
that the checked in docs matches what is generated on CI. Therefore we
need to ensure devs locally run the exact version that CI runs such that
they generate the same output. So in this case we pin to a particular
version of the dependencies.
The TypeScript definition erroneously made `options` required. We can
fix it by providing a default value, which means users calling the
function will be able to leave it blank without TS complaining.
Issues like this are a +1 to porting our tests to TypeScript in order to
catch these on our own test suite, so that's something we should look into.
This PR starts exploring the Page class and how to best document it. It explores how best to document events in the system, and I think pulling them out into an `enum` is the best solution here. It lets us end up with a page of docs that explicitly lists all the events the page class can ever emit.
Just one was used externally and I wrapped that up in a method. I think
it's a useful method to provide (I can imagine wanting to know if JS is
enabled on a page) so I think there's no harm here (I'd rather that then
have JSHandle reach into a private variable).
This adds the new docs that are generated by API Extractor via TSDoc.
They are sparse because we do not yet use TSDoc in the codebase. This is
the starting point and from here we can work through all the different
classes and improve the documentation.
