Feature request: original HTML content ('View Page Source')

[datasunny]

New feature request: adding a new method to retrieve original HTML content of a web page (before Javascript rendering), just like in Chrome browser, right click mouse and choose 'View Page Source'.

How about this:

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

puppeteer.launch().then(async browser => {
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  const url = 'https://www.chromestatus.com/features';

  page.on('response', async resp => {
    if (resp.ok && resp.url === url) {
      console.log(await resp.text());
    }
  });

  await page.goto(url);

  browser.close();
});

Alternatively, you don't really need Puppeteer for this:

const https = require('https');
https.get('https://www.chromestatus.com/features', resp => {
  let data = '';
  resp.on('data', (chunk) => data += chunk);
  resp.on('end', () => console.log(data));
});

@datasunny: just use the main resource response to retrieve content:

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

puppeteer.launch().then(async browser => {
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  const response = await page.goto('https://www.chromestatus.com/features');
  console.log(await response.text());
  browser.close();
});

@aslushnikov nice. Forgot goto returns something :)

Thanks all for the lighting fast response!
