Documentation

Detecting when a page is loaded is quite complicated. You can't just listen to onload because some javascript may wait for this event to be fired and then render the page or make additional AJAX calls. This is ofcause a bad behaviour, never or less I see it quite often. steer-loaded listens to all requests and tries to determine when the page is actually don loading.

var path = require('path');
var steer = require('steer');
var loaded = require('steer-loaded');

var chrome = steer({
  cache: path.resolve(__dirname, 'cache'),
  inspectorPort: 7510
});

chrome.once('open', function () {

  // Network and Page events need to be enabled
  chrome.inspector.Network.enable(function (err) {
    if (err) throw err;

    chrome.inspector.Page.enable(function (err) {
      if (err) throw err;

      // Navigate to page
      chrome.inspector.Page.navigate('http://google.dk', function (err) {
        if (err) throw err;

        // Tell when page is loaded
        loaded(chrome, function (err, resources) {
          if (err) throw err;

          // A list of resources there where loaded, primarily used for
          // debuggging and testing but can be usefull.
          console.log(resources);
        });
      });
    });
  });
});
