from locatr import (
    LlmProvider,
    LlmSettings,
    Locatr,
    LocatrCdpSettings,
    LocatrSeleniumSettings,
    PluginType,
)

llm_settings = LlmSettings(
    llm_provider=LlmProvider.OPENAI,
    llm_api_key=os.environ.get("LLM_API_KEY"),
    model_name=os.environ.get("LLM_MODEL_NAME"),
    reranker_api_key=os.environ.get("COHERE_API_KEY"),
)

locatr_settings_selenium = LocatrSeleniumSettings(
    llm_settings=llm_settings,
    selenium_url=os.environ.get("SELENIUM_URL"), # url must end with `/wd/hub`
    selenium_session_id="e4c543363b9000a66073db7a39152719",
)

selenium_locatr = Locatr(locatr_settings_selenium, debug=True)

print(selenium_locatr.get_locatr("H1 element with text Example Domain"))

Locatr Settings

Locatr settings expects the following fields:

Cache Settings.

  • cache_path -> The path to the cache file. This file will be reused later to save llm api requests. If nothing is provided then it is stored in .locatr.cache.
  • use_cache -> Weather to use cache or not.

For cache schema see: link

Llm settings.

Contains all the settings required for llm and re-ranking.

from locatr import LlmSettings

It expects the following values:

  1. llm_provider -> The llm provider you want to use. Options are locatr.LlmProvider.OPENAI and locatr.LlmProvider.ANTHROPIC
  2. llm_api_key -> The provider's api key value.
  3. model_name -> Specify which llm model you want to use.
  4. reranker_api_key -> Api key for cohere reranker. It is optional if not provided reranking will not be used.

Example:

from locatr import LlmSettings

llm_settings = LlmSettings(
    llm_provider=LlmProvider.OPENAI,
    llm_api_key=os.environ.get("LLM_API_KEY"),
    model_name=os.environ.get("LLM_MODEL_NAME"),
    reranker_api_key=os.environ.get("COHERE_API_KEY"),
)

Note: If values are not provided in the settings then they will be read from the following env variables.

  • LLM_PROVIDER
  • LLM_MODEL
  • LLM_API_KEY
  • COHERE_API_KEY

Locatr settings is bound with the type of plugin you want to use (cdp/selenium).

To create settings for cdp use (use with playwright):

from locatr import LocatrCdpSettings

# .... create llm settings

locatr_setting_cdp = LocatrCdpSettings(
    llm_settings=llm_settings,
    cdp_url="http://localhost:9222", # You can get this port by passing the following argument to chromium based browsers: `--remote-debugging-port=9222`
)

To create settings for selenium use:

from locatr import LocatrSeleniumSettings

locatr_settings_selenium = LocatrSeleniumSettings(
    llm_settings=llm_settings,
    selenium_url=os.environ.get("SELENIUM_URL"), # url must end with `/wd/hub`
    selenium_session_id="e4c543363b9000a66073db7a39152719",
)

Get locatr

To get locatr string we need to import the Locatr class and pass the settings to it.

from locatr import Locatr

# ... create settings 

l = Locatr(locatr_settings_selenium)

By default, the Locatr class operates without logging. However, if you'd like to view the Locatr server logs for debugging purposes, you can enable the debug parameter by passing True as the second argument during initialization.

l.get_locatr("red 'yes button' in the form")

You can also get locatrs asynchronously. Just call get_locatr_async.

await l.get_locatr_async("red 'yes button' in the form")
