WebRender: A Simple Web Content Renderer for Python

WebRender is a Python package that provides a simple and effective way to render web content within environments like Jupyter Notebooks and IPython. It's designed to overcome common embedding restrictions, allowing you to display any website or embed YouTube videos seamlessly.

Key Features

• Render Any Website: Utilizes Selenium to capture and display a screenshot of any URL, bypassing X-Frame-Options restrictions.
• Embed YouTube Videos: Easily embed YouTube videos with just the URL.
• Jupyter/IPython Integration: Designed to work smoothly within Jupyter Notebooks and IPython environments.
• Automatic Driver Management: Uses webdriver-manager to automatically handle the required Chrome WebDriver.

Installation

You can install WebRender directly from PyPI:

pip install WebRender

Usage

WebRender is simple to use. Here are a couple of examples:

Rendering a Website

You can render any website using the render_site function. This will take a screenshot of the page and display it.

from WebRender.site import render_site

# Render Google's homepage
render_site('https://www.google.com')

# Render a specific article
render_site('https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page')

Embedding a YouTube Video

Use the render_youtube_video function to embed a YouTube video directly in your notebook.

from WebRender.youtube import render_youtube_video

# Embed a YouTube video by URL
render_youtube_video('https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ')

Dependencies

• Python 3.8+
• Google Chrome: This package requires Google Chrome to be installed on your system.
• The necessary Python packages (selenium, webdriver-manager, etc.) will be installed automatically.
