nodejs html dom,javascript - Nodejs, how to view jsdom in browser - Stack Overflow

From the comment I gather you want to manipulate the DOM in JSDOM in node and then (maybe) write an html file (or return it in a response)

For that use serialize()

So with your example:

const jsdom = require("jsdom");

const { JSDOM } = jsdom;

const dom = new JSDOM(`

My First JSDOM!

`,

{

url: "http://localhost:3000/",

contentType: "text/html",

pretendToBeVisual: true,

}

);

console.log(dom.serialize());

JSDom will give you a string for all your HTML.

You can then use Express.js to create a server that may return that HTML or you use the string to write an HTML file to disk.

const express = require('express');

const jsdom = require("jsdom");

const { JSDOM } = jsdom;

const dom = new JSDOM(`

My First JSDOM!

`,

{

url: "http://localhost:3000/",

contentType: "text/html",

pretendToBeVisual: true,

}

);

const app = express();

app.get('/', (req, res) => {

res.send(dom.serialize());

});

app.listen(8080, () => {

console.log('Example app listening at http://localhost:8080');

});
