These web pages require scrolling to the end of the page to load more content. In this guide, we'll explore how to scroll to the bottom of the page with Playwright using three distinct approaches for both Python and NodeJS clients. ## Using JavaScript In order to allow Playwright scroll to bottom, we can use the `window.scrollTo(x, y)` JavaScript function. This enables vertical scrolling untill the very bottom of the page is reached. Here's how to use Playwright to infinite scroll web pages. We'll scrape [web-scraping.dev/testimonials](https://web-scraping.dev/testimonials), which loads more data with scrolls: Python NodeJS python```python from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright with sync_playwright() as p: browser = p.chromium.launch(headless=False) context = browser.new_context() page = context.new_page() # navigate to the website page.goto("https://web-scraping.dev/testimonials/") # scroll to the bottom: _prev_height = -1 _max_scrolls = 100 _scroll_count = 0 while _scroll_count < _max_scrolls: # Execute JavaScript to scroll to the bottom of the page page.evaluate("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)") # Wait for new content to load (change this value as needed) page.wait_for_timeout(1000) # wait for 1000 milliseconds # Check whether the scroll height changed - means more pages are there new_height = page.evaluate("document.body.scrollHeight") if new_height == _prev_height: break _prev_height = new_height _scroll_count += 1 # Now we can collect all loaded data on the document: results = [] for element in page.locator(".testimonial").element_handles(): text = element.query_selector(".text").inner_html() results.append(text) print(f"scraped: {len(results)} results!") ``` javascript```javascript const { chromium } = require('playwright'); (async () => { const browser = await chromium.launch({ headless: false }); const context = await browser.newContext(); const page = await context.newPage(); // navigate to the website await page.goto('https://web-scraping.dev/testimonials/'); // Scroll to the bottom: let prevHeight = -1; const maxScrolls = 100; let scrollCount = 0; while (scrollCount < maxScrolls) { // Execute JavaScript to scroll to the bottom of the page await page.evaluate(() => window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight)); // Wait for new content to load (change this value as needed) await page.waitForTimeout(1000); // wait for 1000 milliseconds // Check whether the scroll height changed - means more pages are there const newHeight = await page.evaluate(() => document.body.scrollHeight); if (newHeight === prevHeight) { break; } prevHeight = newHeight; scrollCount++; } // Now we can collect all loaded data on the document: const results = await page.$$eval('.testimonial .text', elements => elements.map(element => element.innerHTML) ); console.log(`scraped: ${results.length} results!`); console.log(results); await browser.close(); })(); ``` Above, we're scraping an endless paging example from `web-scraping.dev`. We start a `while` loop and keep scrolling to the bottom until the browser's vertical size stops changing. Then, once the bottom is reached we can start parsing the content. Above, we define three variables: - `_prev_height`: page height before scrolling to compare - `_max_scrolls`: maximum number of scrolls to perform - `_scroll_count`: current number of scrolls performed Then, we start a `while` loop to keep executing the `window.scrollTo` JavaScript method to scroll down until no new page height is captured. Finally, the full HTML page is parsed once it finishes scrolling vertically. ## Using Keyboard In the previous snippet, we used JavaScript evaluation to emulate scroll action. Since Playwright provides a Keyboard API, we can use it to simulate vertical scrolling: Python NodeJS python```python # .... while _scroll_count < _max_scrolls: # Scroll to the bottom of the page using keyboard page.keyboard.down('End') # .... ``` javascript```javascript # .... while (scrollCount < maxScrolls) { // Scroll to the bottom of the page using keyboard await page.keyboard.down('End'); # .... } ``` Above, we use the keyboard API via the [keyboard class](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-keyboard) to hold the `down` key till the page ends.

For this, we can utilize Playwright's mouse API: Python NodeJS python```python # .... while _scroll_count < _max_scrolls: # Scroll to the bottom of the page using mouse wheel page.mouse.wheel(0, 15000) # .... ``` javascript```javascript # .... while (scrollCount < maxScrolls) { // Scroll to the bottom of the page using mouse wheel await page.mouse.wheel(0, 15000); # .... } ``` Above, we use the [mouse class](https://playwright.dev/docs/api/class-mouse) to scroll vertically using a mouse wheel event with the required height length.
