Dialog

Dialog objects are dispatched by page via the page.on('dialog') event.

An example of using Dialog class:

const { chromium } = require('playwright'); // Or 'firefox' or 'webkit'.
(async () => {
const browser = await chromium.launch();
const page = await browser.newPage();
page.on('dialog', async dialog => {
console.log(dialog.message());
await dialog.dismiss();
await browser.close();
});
page.evaluate(() => alert('1'));
})();
note

Dialogs are dismissed automatically, unless there is a page.on('dialog') listener. When listener is present, it must either dialog.accept([promptText]) or dialog.dismiss() the dialog - otherwise the page will freeze waiting for the dialog, and actions like click will never finish.

dialog.accept([promptText])#

  • promptText <string> A text to enter in prompt. Does not cause any effects if the dialog's type is not prompt. Optional.

Returns when the dialog has been accepted.

dialog.defaultValue()#

If dialog is prompt, returns default prompt value. Otherwise, returns empty string.

dialog.dismiss()#

Returns when the dialog has been dismissed.

dialog.message()#

A message displayed in the dialog.

dialog.type()#

Returns dialog's type, can be one of alert, beforeunload, confirm or prompt.
