CasperJS support?

moshewe opened this issue · comments

Would you consider supporting CasperJS in the future? It's basically a PhantomJS instance, but with some scraping and navigation built-in.

Would the main point to have access to easy navigation?

Yes, but also scraping infrastructure. It also implements XPath selectors and some CSS selectors so that you don't have to go through page.evaluate and such. Interacting with the page is also made easier.

It's a library built on top of phantom, basically.
