electron-har

A command-line tool for generating HTTP Archive (HAR) (based on Electron).

The data you get is identical to "Chromium -> Developer Tools -> Network pane -> Save All as HAR".

Installation

Prebuilt binaries can be found on the release(s) page.

You can also use npm:

npm install -g electron-har

In order for Electron to work on Debian/Ubuntu (specifically on Debian 8/Ubuntu 12.04) following packages have to be installed libgtk2.0-0 libgconf-2-4 libasound2 libxtst6 libxss1 libnss3.

Usage

NOTE for Linux users: you might need to --disable-gpu

# NOTE: on Linux --disable-gpu might be needed
electron-har http://google.com # writes HAR to stdout

# in case something doesn't look right / not working
ELECTRON_ENABLE_LOGGING=1 electron-har --disable-gpu --show http://google.com 2>electron.log

# in a headless environment (CI agent on Linux?) - xvfb-run will do just fine 
DISPLAY=:1 xvfb-run electron-har http://google.com -o google_com.har

# to see a complete list of command line options
electron-har --help

... or pragmatically

const electronHAR = require('electron-har')

electronHAR('http://enterprise.com/self-destruct', {
  user: {
    name: 'jean_luc_picard',
    password: 'picard_4_7_alpha_tango'
  }
}, function (err, json) {
  if (err) {
    throw err
  }
  console.log(json.log.entries)
})

In a headless environment you might want to use kesla/headless (which will start Xvfb for you).

const headless = require('headless')
const electronHAR = require('electron-har')

(function (cb) {
  if (!process.env.DISPLAY) {
    headless(function (err, proc, display) {
      if (err) {
        return cb(err)
      }
      process.env.DISPLAY = ':' + display
      cb(null, proc)
    })
  } else {
    process.nextTick(cb)
  }
})(function (err, xvfb) {
  if (err) {
    throw err
  }
  electronHAR(..., function (err, json) {
    ...
    xvfb && xvfb.kill()
  })
})
