Installation
Latest and fixed versions
From PyPI
pip install chromedriver-binary

pip install git+https://github.com/danielkaiser/python-chromedriver-binary.git
Automatically detected versions
Please make sure to install Chrome or Chromium first and add the browser to the binary search path.
From PyPI
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
If the installed chromedriver version does not match your browser's version please try to empty pip's cache or disable the cache during (re-)installation.
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`
