Project description
auto-selenium
Auto-Selenium is a Python tool to automate the download of Selenium Web Drivers and store the profile sessions for the following browsers:
- Google Chrome
- Firefox
- Opera
- Brave
- Edge (only for Windows)
It utilizes Selenium and MSEdge tools
Quickstart examples
Installation
pip install auto-selenium
Simple Usage
from autoselenium import Driver
with Driver('chrome', root='drivers') as driver:
driver.get('https://www.google.com/')
# Selenium Webdriver command examples
driver.find_elements_by_tag_name('div')
driver.refresh()
Downloads driver based on current version of the browser. When it is used as a context manager, the driver returns Selenium's WebDriver object.
Download specific versions of each driver
from autoselenium import download_driver, get_version
download_driver('firefox', version='0.29.1', root='drivers')
download_driver('opera', 'latest')
cversion = get_version('brave', 'current')
lversion = get_version('brave', 'latest')
if cversion < lversion:
print('You should update your browser!')
You can specify between 'current', 'latest' or input an specific version for a driver.
Create your custom driver
import autoselenium
class TwitterBot(autoselenium.Driver):
_URL = 'https://twitter.com'
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
self.logged = False
def login_required(func):
def logged_checker(self, *args, **kwargs):
if not self.logged:
self.log()
return func(self, *args, **kwargs)
return logged_checker
def log(self):
self.logged = True
pass
@login_required
def scrape(self):
