When working with jQuery on webpages, I regularly use the Devtools context menu option 'Copy JS path', this produces something like:
document.querySelector('element1 > element2')
then I always need to replace 'document.querySelector'
with a '$'
for jQuery to work... so tedious!
I wrote a small Autohotkey utility script which detects 'document.querySelector'
when in the clipboard and automatically replaces it with a '$'
- it's very simple and effective.
install Authotkey, save as 'clippie.ahk' (for example):
#Persistent
OnClipboardChange("ClipChanged")
return
ClipChanged(Type) {
StringReplace, clipboard, clipboard, document.querySelector,
$, All
}
(minor note: if you ever need to copy/paste 'document.querySelector
', just copy/paste 'document.querySelecto
' and then manually add 'r
' at the end)
Or, if you're brave, I compiled the script into an .exe you can download:
clippie - Copy jQuery path
