# Page.waitForFunction() method
|
||
|
|
||
|
Waits for a function to finish evaluating in the page's context.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**Signature:**
|
||
|
|
||
|
```typescript
|
||
|
class Page {
|
||
|
waitForFunction<
|
||
|
Params extends unknown[],
|
||
|
Func extends EvaluateFunc<Params> = EvaluateFunc<Params>
|
||
|
>(
|
||
|
pageFunction: Func | string,
|
||
|
options?: {
|
||
|
timeout?: number;
|
||
|
polling?: string | number;
|
||
|
},
|
||
|
...args: Params
|
||
|
): Promise<HandleFor<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>>;
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Parameters
|

|
|
||
|
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
||
|
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
|
| pageFunction | Func \| string | Function to be evaluated in browser context |
|
||
|
| options | { timeout?: number; polling?: string \| number; } | <i>(Optional)</i> Optional waiting parameters - <code>polling</code> - An interval at which the <code>pageFunction</code> is executed, defaults to <code>raf</code>. If <code>polling</code> is a number, then it is treated as an interval in milliseconds at which the function would be executed. If polling is a string, then it can be one of the following values: - <code>raf</code> - to constantly execute <code>pageFunction</code> in <code>requestAnimationFrame</code> callback. This is the tightest polling mode which is suitable to observe styling changes. - <code>mutation</code>- to execute pageFunction on every DOM mutation. - <code>timeout</code> - maximum time to wait for in milliseconds. Defaults to <code>30000</code> (30 seconds). Pass <code>0</code> to disable timeout. The default value can be changed by using the [Page.setDefaultTimeout()](./puppeteer.page.setdefaulttimeout.md) method. |
|
||
|
| args | Params | Arguments to pass to <code>pageFunction</code> |
|

|
**Returns:**
|
||
|
|
||
|
Promise<[HandleFor](./puppeteer.handlefor.md)<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>>
|
||
|
|
||
|
A `Promise` which resolves to a JSHandle/ElementHandle of the the `pageFunction`'s return value.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 1
|
||
|
|
||
|
The [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md) can be used to observe viewport size change:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```ts
|
||
|
const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
|
||
|
(async () => {
|
||
|
const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
|
||
|
const page = await browser.newPage();
|
||
|
const watchDog = page.waitForFunction('window.innerWidth < 100');
|
||
|
await page.setViewport({width: 50, height: 50});
|
||
|
await watchDog;
|
||
|
await browser.close();
|
||
|
})();
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 2
|
||
|
|
||
|
To pass arguments from node.js to the predicate of [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md) function:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```ts
|
||
|
const selector = '.foo';
|
||
|
await page.waitForFunction(
|
||
|
selector => !!document.querySelector(selector),
|
||
|
{},
|
||
|
selector
|
||
|
);
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example 3
|
||
|
|
||
|
The predicate of [Page.waitForFunction()](./puppeteer.page.waitforfunction.md) can be asynchronous too:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```ts
|
||
|
const username = 'github-username';
|
||
|
await page.waitForFunction(
|
||
|
async username => {
|
||
|
const githubResponse = await fetch(
|
||
|
`https://api.github.com/users/${username}`
|
||
|
);
|
||
|
const githubUser = await githubResponse.json();
|
||
|
// show the avatar
|
||
|
const img = document.createElement('img');
|
||
|
img.src = githubUser.avatar_url;
|
||
|
// wait 3 seconds
|
||
|
await new Promise((resolve, reject) => setTimeout(resolve, 3000));
|
||
|
img.remove();
|
||
|
},
|
||
|
{},
|
||
|
username
|
||
|
);
|
||
|
```
