Considering that there is no function that works very well natively in Selenium for using proxys with authentication in chromedriver, this is an effective way to solve this problem.

Selenium Proxy Extension v0.1.1

Considering that there is no function that works very well natively in Selenium for using proxys with authentication in chromedriver, this is an effective way to solve this problem.

Installation

pip install seleniumproxy

Usage

First, we import the extension, using the following syntax:

from seleniumproxy import proxies

Then we can use the syntax to set the proxy

proxies_extension = proxies("username", "password", "host", "port")

It looks like this:

from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from seleniumproxy import proxies

def open_browser():
    chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
    proxies_extension = proxies("username", "password", "host", "port")
    chrome_options.add_extension(proxies_extension)
    service = Service(executable_path='./chromedriver.exe') 
    driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service, options=chrome_options)
    driver.get("https://api.my-ip.io/v2/ip.json")
    input("")
    
if __name__ == "__main__":
    driver = open_browser()

How it works?

This extension works in a very simple way, when calling the proxies function, it creates a javascript extension that configures the proxy in the browser, and this extension is injected when starting the browser

Roadmap

• Add possibility to change the proxy with the browser open
• Support browsers other than Chromedriver
