Function parse_value 

pub fn parse_value(
    value: &Value,
    refs: Option<&mut HashMap<usize, Value>>,
) -> Value

Parses a value returned by Playwright’s evaluateExpression method.

This function deserializes values from Playwright’s protocol format back into standard Rust/JSON values. It handles the same types as serialization:

• {"v": "null"} → Value::Null
• {"v": "undefined"} → Value::Null
• {"b": true} → Value::Bool(true)
• {"n": 42} → Value::Number(42)
• {"s": "hello"} → Value::String("hello")
• {"d": "2025-12-25T00:00:00.000Z"} → Value::String("2025-12-25T00:00:00.000Z")
• {"bi": "12345678901234567890"} → Value::String("12345678901234567890")
• {"u": "https://example.com"} → Value::String("https://example.com")
• {"e": {...}} → Value::Object with error details
• {"ta": {...}} → Value::Array of decoded values
• {"a": [...]} → Value::Array([...])
• {"o": [...]} → Value::Object({...})
• Special values: "Infinity", "-Infinity", "NaN", "-0"

Arguments

• value - The wrapped value from Playwright
• refs - Optional map for tracking circular references

Returns

The parsed value as a serde_json::Value

Examples

use playwright_rs::protocol::parse_value;
use serde_json::json;

// Parse a string
let result = parse_value(&json!({"s": "hello"}), None);
assert_eq!(result, json!("hello"));

// Parse a number
let result = parse_value(&json!({"n": 42}), None);
assert_eq!(result, json!(42));

// Parse a boolean
let result = parse_value(&json!({"b": true}), None);
assert_eq!(result, json!(true));
