Getting Information from Google Chrome's Developer Tools

Question

I am working on a project that wants me to get information from Google Chrome's Developer tools. More specifically, when I open up the developer tools on my target website, under the resources tab a folder is being populated called other.

This folder is populating a list of URLs. I am curious if it is possible to somehow access or get the URLs that are being populated via any coding language (preferably python,/javascript/ajax/java).

Any input, advice, suggestions as to how to go about accessing the data within Google Chrome's developer tools would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

The Chrome Developer Tools has two parts frontend and backend and there is an API which specifies the protocol between these parts. You can see the specification here. You can use it for writing your own app instead of standard DevTools frontend.

Also there is experimental debugging API for chrome extensions.
