Methods

evaluate<Params extends unknown[], Func extends EvaluateFunc<Params> = EvaluateFunc<Params>>(pageFunction: Func | string, ...args: Params): Promise<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>

If the function passed to the worker.evaluate returns a Promise, then worker.evaluate would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value. If the function passed to the worker.evaluate returns a non-serializable value, then worker.evaluate resolves to undefined. DevTools Protocol also supports transferring some additional values that are not serializable by JSON: -0, NaN, Infinity, -Infinity, and bigint literals. Shortcut for await worker.executionContext()).evaluate(pageFunction, ...args).

evaluateHandle<Params extends unknown[], Func extends EvaluateFunc<Params> = EvaluateFunc<Params>>(pageFunction: Func | string, ...args: Params): Promise<HandleFor<Awaited<ReturnType<Func>>>>

The only difference between worker.evaluate and worker.evaluateHandle is that worker.evaluateHandle returns in-page object (JSHandle). If the function passed to the worker.evaluateHandle returns a Promise, then worker.evaluateHandle would wait for the promise to resolve and return its value. Shortcut for await worker.executionContext()).evaluateHandle(pageFunction, ...args)

executionContext(): Promise<ExecutionContext>

Returns the ExecutionContext the WebWorker runs in

url(): string
