[🚀 Feature]: Export backend code object or function to browser.

[MiyamuraMiyako]

Feature and motivation

it's add js invoke backend capability.

Usage example

For example, I use C# backend:

EdgeOptions op = new EdgeOptions();
var esrv = EdgeDriverService.CreateDefaultService(".\\", "msedgedriver.exe");
var drv = new EdgeDriver(esrv, op);

drv.AddBackendObjectToJs("objectName", new JsInvokeMethodClass());

and Js:

objectName.xxxfunction();

I am not really understanding what you mean. Is it to add a JS script that executes in the browser?

[MiyamuraMiyako]

@diemol It's similar to cefsharp or electron, browser can execute c# or nodejs code.

Can you share a link or an example to understand better?

Thanks for sharing the links. That is out of the scope of this project. In the upcoming standard https://github.com/w3c/webdriver-bidi, there will be a way to register a JS function from the C# code (and other languages as well), but not the other way around.
