PhantomJs Flash faker

PhantomJS-Flash is a small snippet for faking Flash support inside PhantomJS. It works by overriding the navigator object (although all of its properties remain untouched), and faking the mimeTypes and plugins object. This will cause libraries like SWFObject to think that Flash support is available.

Usage

You only need to call the flash method in the onInitialized callback, passing the page object to the function. As a result you will get a boolean value, indicating if the process went well or not. This will let you bypass the flash detections, although it will not fake a real Flash object. If you need real Flash support, you should use a solution like the Ryan Bridges one.

Example

"use strict";

var webpage = require('webpage');
var flash = require('./flash');
var page = webpage.create();

page.onInitialized = function() {
    console.log('Flash successfully faked: ' + flash(page));
};
