A visual command-line web browser that doesn't move focus away from your workflow.

clibro's Issues

Implement "scrolling"

Display more of the current page (similar to "scrolling below the fold")

clibrowz j // or J (vim-inspired)

Display more of the current page (similar to "scrolling back up")

clibrowz k // or K

Deal with Selenium errors

Utilize cefpython3 library instead

Example here of getting a screenshot in headless mode:
https://github.com/cztomczak/cefpython/blob/master/examples/screenshot.py

Implement width and height (aka "fold") flags

Implement flag to override the default width of the page. e.g.

clibrowz http://yahoo.com --width 1200 // or -w 1200

Override the default height of the "fold" (how much of the page viewport is shown):

clibrowz http://yahoo.com --height 500 // or -h 500

Use config file for defining paths

Implement form completion

1. Label form fields in another color
2. bro [number] [text] focuses the field, enters the text
3. Need to think of way to handle multiple fields (ie fill them all out at once? One at a time, then submit?)

Implement redisplay current page

To redisplay the current page:

clibrowz

and also provide useful error if doesn't exist.

Flags can be used with or without a url. For example, this will redisplay the most-recently-visited page in a narrower viewport (perhaps you wanted to see how it looks on a mobile device):

clibrowz -w 420

Implement flag to suppress link labels

Display without link labels:

clibrowze http://yahoo.com --no-labels // or -n

Implement grid for clicking items by column, row

Some links are not noticed by Selenium. Provide alternate method of clicking by grid.

1. User sees they can't follow a link
2. User types bro -g or bro --grid to reload page with grid
3. User types, e.g., bro A5 to click on that grid position

Implement URL history (i.e. previous and next)

Go backward or forward in history

clibrowz h // or H or >

clibrowz l // or L or <

Deal with the http scheme portion of urls

e.g. If user enters apple.com instead of http://apple.com it should accept either.

Implement combining flags

Single-character flags can be combined.

clibrowz http://yahoo.com  -ln

Implement text links list

Also display a text-based, ordered list of all the links:

clibrowz http://yahoo.com --list-links // or -l
