Obfuscate.js is a Javascript console tool which obfuscates the text on the web page hiding sensitive information. The purpose of this tool is to be able to make shareable screenshots for collaborative debugging, examples, demos and so on. You no longer need to manually blur parts of the screen shot in Photoshop, GIMP, etc. image manipulation program, saving your precious time and making sharing screenshots easier.
- You invoke Obfuscate.js script from the Javascript console of your web browser
- Obfuscate.js obfuscates the whole page or parts of it
- Take a screenshot
- Post to a public forum, blog or other media
I hacked it together in a day for my own purposes.
1. Demostration
Obfuscate.js can walk through the whole page (<body>) or arbitary page bits chosen by CSS selectors.
Open the page with sensitive information in your web browser.
Open Javascript console. Copy-paste line of text from obfuscate.min.js to your Javascript console.
In this point you have the orignal page still with sensitive information
After this you can obfuscate a part of a page by writing the command in the console targeting a specific CSS selector:
obfuscate("#waffle-grid-container"); // Obfuscate contents of Google Spreadsheet
Or simply obfuscate all text the whole page:
obfuscate(); // Obfuscate all the text on the page
