defmodule Playwright.JSHandle do
  @moduledoc """
  `Playwright.JSHandle` represents an in-page JavaScript object. `JSHandles`
  can be created with `Playwright.Page.evaluate_handle/3`.

  ## Example

      handle = Page.evaluate_handle(page, "() => window")

  `JSHandle` prevents the referenced JavaScript object from being garbage
  collected unless the handle is disposed with `Playwright.JSHandle.dispose/1`.
  `JSHandles` are auto-disposed when their origin frame gets navigated or the
  parent context gets destroyed.

  `JSHandle` instances can be used as arguments to:

    - `Playwright.Page.eval_on_selector/5`
    - `Playwright.Page.evaluate/3`
    - `Playwright.Page.evaluate_handle/3`

  Returns the return value from executing `param: expression` in the browser as
  a `Playwright.JSHandle`.

  This function passes the handle as the first argument to `param: expression`.

  The only difference between `Playwright.JSHandle.evaluate/3` and
  `Playwright.JSHandle.evaluate_handle/3` is that `evaluate_handle` returns
  `Playwright.JSHandle`.

  If the expression passed to `Playwright.JSHandle.evaluate_handle/3` returns
  a `Promise`, `Playwright.JSHandle.evaluate_handle/3` waits for the promise to
  resolve and return its value.

  See `Playwright.Page.evaluate_handle/3` for more details.

  ## Returns

    - `Playwright.ElementHandle.t()`

  | `expression`  | param  | `binary()` | Function to be evaluated in the page context. |
