How to access underlying electron?

[Nisthar]

I am new to nightmare and electron's api. I want to access the underlying electron browser to show a image that i scrape using nightmare. Can someone show me an example?

I'm a little confused by your question, and would like to clarify - are you trying to save an image from a page?

No, I am trying to get the source of an image and use the source to display
an image in a new electron window.

@rosshinkley I just want to open an additional electron window to display the scraped image.

Currently, you cannot open a new browser window from Nightmare. #593 has it as a possible future improvement.

For now, you could write a plugin to do such a thing - nightmare-window-manager might be a place to start. It supports window control, but does not support opening a new window (yet).
