Clicks on Selenium webelements at a certain screen position (x,y)

pip install seleniumabsxy

Tested against Windows 10 / Python 3.10 / Anaconda

This module can benefit individuals or developers who need to automate browser interactions, such as clicking on specific elements or locations within a web page. By providing the ability to click on coordinates, it allows for precise interactions with web elements that may not be easily accessible through other means.

Advantages of this module include:

Automation:

It enables automated clicking on specific coordinates within a browser window, which can save time and effort when performing repetitive tasks.

Precise Interactions:

By specifying exact coordinates, it allows for precise targeting of specific elements or locations on a web page. Integration with Chrome: The module integrates with undetected_chromedriver, which provides an undetectable Chrome browser instance, allowing for seamless automation without detection by websites.

Hotkey Support:

The module offers the ability to set a hotkey combination to print the current cursor coordinates, which can be useful for debugging or identifying target locations.

# This code imports necessary libraries and functions, sets a hotkey combination to show
# the cursor coordinates, creates a Chrome browser instance with specific options, assigns the
# driver to the coordsclicker module, waits for 5 seconds, opens a webpage (https://python.org), 
# maximizes the browser window, and provides instructions on how to use the click_on_coords function 
# to click on an object by specifying its coordinates.

# The Browser must either be maximized or the x-coordinate has to be 0 if not maximized

from time import sleep

from seleniumabsxy import set_show_hotkey_coords, click_on_coords, coordsclicker

if __name__ == "__main__":
    set_show_hotkey_coords(hotkey='ctrl+alt+k')
    chrome_opt = uc.ChromeOptions()
    chrome_opt.add_argument("--incognito")
    driver = uc.Chrome(
        options=chrome_opt,
    ) # works also with Selenium, but Chrome only 
    coordsclicker.driver = driver # important!!
    sleep(5)
    driver.get(r"https://python.org")
    driver.fullscreen_window()
    # Go to the object you want to click on, press 'ctrl+alt+k', and call click_on_coords(x,y)
    # The click_on_coords function retrieves a clickable element at the specified coordinates and clicks on it.
	
	# After pressing 'ctrl+alt+k', you will see something like this
    # x=1277, y=459

    # This is how you click
    # click_on_coords(x=1277, y=459)
