Helpful tools for Selenium on Python
Project description
Selenium Tools
About package
There is a known drag & drop bug that reproduces in frameworks that use webdriver to send commands to browser. This bug is a webdriver's issue and it's unknown when it's going to be fixed (or if it's going to be fixed at all). Current solution uses JavaScript code to simulate drag & drop action on web page. It works in most of the cases when it doesn't work in Selenium.
You may find bug description and current workaround here.
Thanks to druska for his native js drag and drop helper.
Current package is called Selenium Tools for a reason - it will contain more features in future. Feel free to contribute.
Installation
pip install seletools
Drag & Drop
from seletools.actions import drag_and_drop
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
source = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "...")
target = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "...")
drag_and_drop(driver, source, target)
Scroll
This one helps to scroll vertically to any element on page, even if it's covered by some other element (like navbar or footer). If there's such obstacle - simply add that covering element into scrolling function as element2
.
from seletools.actions import scroll_to_top, scroll_to_bottom
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
element1 = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "...")
element2 = driver.find_element(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "...") #optional, used only if you have obastacle (like navbar on footer) on top of the element that you need to scroll to
scroll_to_top(driver, element1, element2)
# OR
scroll_to_top(driver, element1)
scroll_to_bottom(driver, element1, element2)
# OR
scroll_to_bottom(driver, element1)
Getting webdriver's wait values
Selenium 4 in it's alpha versions already supports that feature, but stable (latest non-alpha version 3+) doesn't.
# get implicit wait value only
from seletools.waits import get_implicit_wait
implicit_wait = get_implicit_wait(driver)
# OR get all waits (non only implicit one)
from seletools.waits import Wait
waits = Waits(driver)
implicit_wait = waits.implicit
page_load = waits.page_load
scripts = waits.scripts
Interaction with IndexedDB
It's possible to interact with IndexedDB database in browser via JavaScript. This interface helps get/update/insert data in existing databases and tables.
Important: it's necessary to have logging enabled for your webdriver instance, since there's no other way for Selenium to get data from IndexedDB than gather it from the console. Here's how you can enable logging in your webdriver:
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
dc["goog:loggingPrefs"] = {"browser": "ALL"}
driver = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=dc)
Example:
from seletools.indexeddb import IndexedDB
idb = IndexedDB(driver, "mydb", 3) # webdriver instance, db name, db version
# GET value
value = idb.get_value("keyvaluepairs", "foo") # table name, key in table
# PUT value (change existing)
idb.put_value("keyvaluepairs", "foo", "win") # table name, key, new value
# ADD value
idb.add_value("keyvaluepairs", "war", "pain") # table name, new key, new value
Notes
Drag & Drop action worked with CSS selectors only a while ago. Now it also supports XPath selectors.
