Learning Ruby Basics
What are you using for automation? There's a relatively new gem that I heard good things of, vessel: https://github.com/rubycdp/vessel . It uses ferrum under the hood, a set of Ruby bindings to Chrome/Chromium (https://github.com/rubycdp/ferrum).

Ruby web scraping gem that can handle JS?
I've used https://github.com/rubycdp/ferrum as driver for automated testing with capybara for which it works great. It recommends https://github.com/rubycdp/vessel as higher level abstraction for web scraping.

Automating Jekyll card generation with ruby’s Ferrum gem
require "Rubygems" require "Ferrum" def generate_card(browser, card, png, options={}) browser.go_to("http://localhost:4000/cards/#{card}") # see all the options here https://github.com/rubycdp/ferrum#screenshots browser.screenshot(path: "./images/cards/#{png}", full: true, # final image size is window_size x scale scale: 2) end browser = Ferrum::Browser.new(window_size: [800, 418]) # Check what cards we need to make Dir.glob("_posts/*").each do |post| post = File.basename(post, ".md") png = post + ".png" card = post + ".html" generate_card(browser, card, png) unless File.exists?("./images/cards/#{png}") end

Migrating Selenium system tests to Cuprite
That is why we were happy to find out that a new ruby testing driver approach is being developed. It is called Cuprite, it runs the Ferrum library under the hood which, in turn, is an API that directly instruments the Chrome browser using the Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP). About a week ago, we finally made a serious attempt to make our system test suite run on Cuprite, with especially two questions in our minds:
-
Web scraping with rails
I've used Ferrum for a couple small scripts in the past before.

If you are using Chromium from the official Fedora repo, consider stop using it!
What about ungoogled-chromium from OBS?
-
Why is Chromium outdated?
Looks like the upstream "ungoogled chromium" project is using Suse OBS, which is building Fedora packages.
-
Ungoogled Chromium, aka `chromium-browser-privacy` in rpmfusion/free is not being updated since version 88
You can still install ungoogled-chromium via flatpak or OBS repo. Do note though, the OBS repo does not include Freeworld codecs.
-
who has even considered that?
For me, I had to add a opensuse .rpm repository in order to install Ungoogled-Chromium as a dnf package. https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-fedora
