Storing into file using JavaScript/GreaseMonkey

rated 0 times [ 30] [ 6] / answers: 1 / hits: 18476 / 13 Years ago, fri, june 17, 2011, 12:00:00

I have captured list of data from the page using Greasemonkey.

GM Script

var hit = GM_getValue(hit) || 0;

var _url = http://localhost:8080/test?p=$$pageNo$$;

_url = _url.replace($$pageNo$$, hit);

GM_setValue(hit, ++hit); 

if(hit <= 100) {

window.location.href = _url;

}

This script will runs for nth time and capture <10K data, now i facing the issue in storing the captured data in some file.
Anyone has any idea about how we can store the captured data into file/repo?

Thanks

Nope, can't write it to a file, but if you're really bored, you can post it to http://pastebin.com (or any other URL that accepts a POST request with a bunch of data).

GM_xmlhttpRequest({

  method: POST,

  url: http://pastebin.com/post.php,

  data: <your data here>,

  headers: {

    Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

  },

  onload: function(response) {

    alert(posted);

  }

});

Note you need to have a pastebin account to use the API.

If you really need to write a file to your local filesystem, run a web server on your desktop, and then save the results of an http PUT request to disk.
