CDPSession

The CDPSession instances are used to talk raw Chrome Devtools Protocol:

  • protocol methods can be called with session.send method.
  • protocol events can be subscribed to with session.on method.

Useful links:

CDPSession client = page.context().newCDPSession(page);
client.send("Runtime.enable");

client.on("Animation.animationCreated", (event) -> System.out.println("Animation created!"));

JsonObject response = client.send("Animation.getPlaybackRate");
double playbackRate = response.get("playbackRate").getAsDouble();
System.out.println("playback rate is " + playbackRate);

JsonObject params = new JsonObject();
params.addProperty("playbackRate", playbackRate / 2);
client.send("Animation.setPlaybackRate", params);
