## Page.evaluate() method
|
||
|
|
||
|
<b>Signature:</b>
|
||
|
|
||
|
```typescript
|
||
|
evaluate<T extends EvaluateFn>(pageFunction: T, ...args: SerializableOrJSHandle[]): Promise<UnwrapPromiseLike<EvaluateFnReturnType<T>>>;
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Parameters
|
||
|
|
||
|
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
||
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
||
|
| pageFunction | T | a function that is run within the page |
|
||
|
| args | [SerializableOrJSHandle](./puppeteer.serializableorjshandle.md)\[\] | arguments to be passed to the pageFunction |
|
||
|
|
||
|
<b>Returns:</b>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Promise<[UnwrapPromiseLike](./puppeteer.unwrappromiselike.md)<[EvaluateFnReturnType](./puppeteer.evaluatefnreturntype.md)<T>>>
|
||
|
|
||
|
the return value of `pageFunction`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Remarks
|
||
|
|
||
|
Evaluates a function in the page's context and returns the result.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the function passed to `page.evaluteHandle` returns a Promise, the function will wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 1
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
const result = await frame.evaluate(() => {
|
||
|
return Promise.resolve(8 * 7);
|
||
|
});
|
||
|
console.log(result); // prints "56"
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
You can pass a string instead of a function (although functions are recommended as they are easier to debug and use with TypeScript):
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 2
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
const aHandle = await page.evaluate('1 + 2');
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
To get the best TypeScript experience, you should pass in as the generic the type of `pageFunction`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
const aHandle = await page.evaluate<() => number>(() => 2);
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 3
|
||
|
|
||
|
[ElementHandle](./puppeteer.elementhandle.md) instances (including [JSHandle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md)s) can be passed as arguments to the `pageFunction`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
const bodyHandle = await page.$('body');
|
||
|
const html = await page.evaluate(body => body.innerHTML, bodyHandle);
|
||
|
await bodyHandle.dispose();
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
