## ExecutionContext.evaluateHandle() method
|
|
|
|
<b>Signature:</b>
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
evaluateHandle<HandleType extends JSHandle | ElementHandle = JSHandle>(pageFunction: EvaluateHandleFn, ...args: SerializableOrJSHandle[]): Promise<HandleType>;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parameters
|
|
|
|
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
|
| --- | --- | --- |
|
|
| pageFunction | [EvaluateHandleFn](./puppeteer.evaluatehandlefn.md) | a function to be evaluated in the <code>executionContext</code> |
|
|
| args | [SerializableOrJSHandle](./puppeteer.serializableorjshandle.md)\[\] | argument to pass to the page function |
|
|
|
|
<b>Returns:</b>
|
|
|
|
Promise<HandleType>
|
|
|
|
A promise that resolves to the return value of the given function as an in-page object (a [JSHandle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md)).
|
|
|
|
## Remarks
|
|
|
|
The only difference between `executionContext.evaluate` and `executionContext.evaluateHandle` is that `executionContext.evaluateHandle` returns an in-page object (a [JSHandle](./puppeteer.jshandle.md)). If the function passed to the `executionContext.evaluateHandle` returns a Promise, then `executionContext.evaluateHandle` would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value.
|
|
|
|
## Example 1
|
|
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const context = await page.mainFrame().executionContext();
|
|
const aHandle = await context.evaluateHandle(() => Promise.resolve(self));
|
|
aHandle; // Handle for the global object.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example 2
|
|
|
|
A string can also be passed in instead of a function.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// Handle for the '3' * object.
|
|
const aHandle = await context.evaluateHandle('1 + 2');
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Example 3
|
|
|
|
JSHandle instances can be passed as arguments to the `executionContext.* evaluateHandle`:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const aHandle = await context.evaluateHandle(() => document.body);
|
|
const resultHandle = await context.evaluateHandle(body => body.innerHTML, * aHandle);
|
|
console.log(await resultHandle.jsonValue()); // prints body's innerHTML
|
|
await aHandle.dispose();
|
|
await resultHandle.dispose();
|
|
|
|
```
