Show HN: Revenant – Node.js browser automation with PhantomJS

The common tools available to scrape Ajax Web Apps would be PhantomJS and CasperJS. During the process of making a Node.js web app, I wanted to build such a scraper within the Node.js environment itself, but most of the libraries available for Node are simply interfaces to the PhantomJS process on a low level and rather complex for simple scraping needs.

I wanted to be able to tell my headless browser to click elements, fill forms, on an abstracted level like CasperJS, so that scrapers can be built quickly, and hence I built this npm module on top of node-phantom which can be quickly integrated into other node modules.
