Installing CasperJS to work with PhantomJSs latest version 2.1.1

This is the current status of my test installation. My perviously hacked version of CaserpJS ( instructions are there: Helping CasperJS 1.1.0-beta3 play nice with PhantomJS 2.0.0 ), however it’s time to rev-up to the non-beta version of the code.

CasperJS version 1.1.0-beta3 at /usr/lib/node_modules/casperjs, using phantomjs version 2.1.1

As of today:

Step 1 — Clone CasperJS from Git

Hopefully you already have Git installed, and you are ready to clone:

git clone git://github.com/n1k0/casperjs.git
Cloning into ‘casperjs’…

Checking connectivity… done.

Step 2 — Perform Installation

Using hints from the Instructions at CasperJS 1.1.0-DEV documentation, I first located my current casper image, moved it aside, then linked the new one into it’s location.

whereis casperjs
casperjs: /usr/bin/casperjs /usr/local/bin/casperjs /opt/n1k0-casperjs-e3a77d0/bin/casperjs /opt/casperjs/bin/casperjs /opt/casperjs/bin/casperjs.exe

mv /usr/bin/casperjs /usr/bin/casperjs.1.1.0-beta3

ln -sf `pwd`/bin/casperjs /usr/bin/casperjs

Step 3 — Verify Casper

Running casper, I checked to ensure it’s on the latest version:

casperjs
CasperJS version 1.1.0-beta5 at /opt/casperjs, using phantomjs version 2.1.1

This looks like it’s good to go.. now CASPER AWAY!!
