Automatically detected versions

Please make sure to install Chrome or Chromium first and add the browser to the binary search path.

pip install chromedriver-binary-auto

To redetect the required version and install the newest suitable chromedriver after the first installation simply reinstall the package using

pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall chromedriver-binary-auto

From GitHub

pip install git+https://github.com/danielkaiser/python-chromedriver-binary.git@chromedriver-binary-auto

Usage

To use chromedriver just import chromedriver_binary. This will add the executable to your PATH so it will be found. You can also get the absolute filename of the binary with chromedriver_binary.chromedriver_filename.

Example

from selenium import webdriver
import chromedriver_binary  # Adds chromedriver binary to path

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get("http://www.python.org")
assert "Python" in driver.title

Exporting chromedriver binary path

This package installs a small shell script chromedriver-path to easily set and export the PATH variable:

$ export PATH=$PATH:`chromedriver-path`
