Scrape web data

[alan-francis]

I find that one of the use case for Content Scripts is scraping data from the current web page. But i could not exactly find out how to do it.. Is there any plasmo way to get the DOM data to the popup through the content.ts file. Any help would be much appreciated.

To scrape data from the current web page using Content Scripts, you can access DOM elements directly from the content.ts file. Here's a basic example:
`// content.ts

// Fetching DOM data
const pageTitle = document.title;
const pageURL = window.location.href;

// Sending data to the popup
chrome.runtime.sendMessage({
action: 'SEND_DOM_DATA',
data: {
title: pageTitle,
url: pageURL,
// Add more data as needed
},
});
`
