Powered by selenium, bookstw is a simple library to interact with Books.com.tw.

Installation

Quick Start

Let's get started with a simple example that logs in to Books.com.tw and signs in daily.

[!NOTE]

For now it is the only feature provided by bookstw.

from selenium.webdriver import Chrome
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options

from bookstw import BooksTWRunner
from bookstw.ocr.baidu import BaiduHandwritingOCR

if __name__ == "__main__":
    baidu_ocr = BaiduHandwritingOCR(
        proxy={"http": "", "https": ""},
        api_key="<YOUR_API_KEY>",
        secret_key="<YOUR_SECRET>"
    )
    options = Options()
    options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
    options.add_argument("--disable-logging")
    options.add_argument("--log-level=3")
    options.add_argument("--headless")
    options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-logging"])
    chrome = Chrome(options)

    runner = BooksTWRunner(ocr=baidu_ocr, webdriver=chrome)
    runner.login("<YOUR_USERNAME>", "<YOUR_PASSWORD>")
    runner.daily_sign_in()

The above code snippet demonstrates how to sign in daily with bookstw.

The BaiduHandwritingOCR is used to solve the captcha. Currently, it is the only OCR provider supported by bookstw. However, you can implement your own OCR provider by inheriting the BaseOCR class.
