SecretAgent
SecretAgent is a web browser that's built for scraping.
- [x] Built for scraping - it's the first modern headless browsers designed specifically for scraping instead of just automated testing.
- [x] Designed for web developers - We've recreated a fully compliant DOM directly in NodeJS allowing you bypass the headaches of previous scraper tools.
- [x] Powered by Chrome - The powerful Chrome engine sits under the hood, allowing for lightning fast rendering.
- [x] Emulates any modern browser - BrowserEmulators make it easy to disguise your script as practically any browser.
- [x] Avoids detection along the entire stack - Don't be blocked because of TLS fingerprints in your networking stack.

Installation
npm i --save secret-agent
or
yarn add secret-agent
Usage
SecretAgent provides access to the W3C DOM specification without the need for Puppeteer's complicated evaluate callbacks and multi-context switching:
const agent = require('secret-agent');
(async () => {
await agent.goto('https://example.org');
const title = await agent.document.title;
const intro = await agent.document.querySelector('p').textContent;
await agent.close();
})();
