A minimal python http client that runs real JS/DOM (htmx and friends) without a browser
Project description
miniclient
A minimal python http client that runs JavaScript, without a browser. Meant to be used as a lightweight test client to simulate browser interactions. Embeds a V8 Runtime, DOM, and is designed to run htmx especially well.
Install
uv add miniclient
Example
The snippet below opens a page, submits a search form, clicks a "load more" button and reads the results back. All against a real in-memory DOM running JavaScript (htmx, for example). No browser involved.
from miniclient.browser import Browser
with Browser() as browser:
browser.goto("http://localhost:8000/")
browser.find("input[name=q]").fill("htmx")
browser.find("form").requestSubmit()
browser.find("#load-more").click()
print(len(browser.find_all("#results li")), "results")
print(browser.find("#results li:first-child").text())
