First time posting here, so I address a problem I cannot solve.Checked Stackoverflow and google. There's some answers for java which I couldn't decode. Therefore you might mention that this is a duplicate, but so far no one answered such a question.
Any ideas will be really appreciated.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary
binary = FirefoxBinary(r'C:\Program Files (x86)\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe')
profile = FirefoxProfile(r'C:\Users\User\Documents\dxcwavid.Zydrius5')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile = profile, firefox_binary = binary)
driver.get("http://google.com")
geckodriver: 0.23.0
python: 3.7.1
selenium: 3.141.0
Windows: 10 1511
Try with:
binary = FirefoxBinary("C:\Program Files (x86)\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe")
profile = FirefoxProfile("C:\Users\User\Documents\dxcwavid.Zydrius5")
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=profile, firefox_binary=binary)
driver.get("http://google.com")
To load an existing Firefox Profile through Selenium and Python you can use the following solution:
Code Block:
from selenium import webdriver
myprofile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile(r'C:\Users\AtechM_03\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\moskcpdq.SeleniumTest')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=myprofile, executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get('https://www.google.co.in')
print("Page Title is : %s" %driver.title)
driver.quit()
Console Output:
Page Title is : Google

I am a complete beginner to selenium and I wrote my first program just to connect to Google.
from selenium import webdriver
path = "C:\\Users\\Home\\Documents\\Python37-32\\Scripts\\Code\\msedgedriver.exe"
driver = webdriver.Edge(path)
driver.get("https://google.com")
print(driver.title)"
My web driver version is 88.0.705.50 (Official build) (64-bit)
I use selenium 3 and I am getting this error while running the code. Also it is opening "data:," for a few seconds then opening Google. Lastly the browser doesn't stay open.
Declare path on a separate line from the import statement
Use raw string in path or double escapes
Code:
from selenium import webdriver
path = r"C:\Users\Home\Documents\Python37-32\Scripts\Code\msedgedriver.exe"
driver = webdriver.Edge(path)
driver.get("https://google.com")
print(driver.title)
What error do you get? It's the default behavior that the browser opens with data:,, then it will direct to the website you want. The browser doesn't stay opened may because the error breaks it.
You can refer to the following steps to automate Edge in python selenium:
Make sure the WebDriver version is the same as the Edge version.
Install the MS Edge Selenium tools using command below:
pip install msedge-selenium-tools selenium==3.141
Sample code:
from msedge.selenium_tools import Edge, EdgeOptions
options = EdgeOptions()
options.use_chromium = True
driver = Edge(executable_path = r"C:\Users\Home\Documents\Python37-32\Scripts\Code\msedgedriver.exe", options = options)
driver.get("https://google.com")
print(driver.title)
I am trying to use the vivaldi browser with Selenium. It is a chromium browser that runs very similar to chrome. I have Selenium working with Firefox (geckodriver), and Google Chrome(chromedriver), but I can't seem to find a way with Vivaldi. Any help would be appreciated.
If the vivaldi binary by default is located at C:\Users\levir\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe you can use the following solution:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.add_argument("start-maximized")
options.binary_location=r'C:\Users\levir\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe', options=options)
driver.get('http://google.com/')
For future reference:
to make Vivaldi work with selenium you need to make sure of three things :
The correct version of ChromeDriver
Set selenium's driver to use Vivaldi's binary via webdriver.ChromeOptions()
Make sure you're getting the correct url (don't forget "https://")
All of the above is explained step by step with screenshots in this blog post
The key executable_path will be deprecated in the upcoming releases of Selenium.
This post has the solution. I'm posting a copy of said solution with the path to Vivaldi, where the username is fetched by the script so you don't have to hard code it.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
import os
current_user = os.getlogin()
s = Service(rf"C:\Users\{current_user}\AppData\Local\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)
driver.get("http://duckduckgo.com") # or your website of choice
You can use ChromeOptions and supply binary.
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
opt = Options()
opt.binary_location = chromium_path//path to chromium binary
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=opt, executable_path="path_to_chromedriver")
All my efforts to open chrome browser with Browsec extension enabled are failing. Here is what i tried in last -
# Configure the necessary command-line option.
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument(r'--load-
extension=C:\Users\lap0042\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User
Data\Default\Extensions\omghfjlpggmjjaagoclmmobgdodcjboh')
# Initalize the driver with the appropriate options.
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
driver.get("http://stackoverflow.com")
This results in error "Failed to load extension from . Manifest files is missing or unreadable"
After search for this error I get that Manifest.json file should be renamed to manifest.json.txt but doing this resulted in same error.
Any help will be highly appreciated
To open chrome browser with any extension you need to use the add_extension() method through an instance of chrome.options class and you can use the following solution :
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_extension(r'C:\path\to\extension.crx')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options, executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\chromedriver.exe')
driver.get('https://www.google.co.in')
print("Page Title is : %s" %driver.title)
driver.quit()

You can find the relevant documentation in:
ChromeDriver - WebDriver for Chrome.
You can find a couple of relevant discussions in:
[Python] How to install Chrome Extension using Selenium & Python
[Java] How to install extension permanently in geckodriver
Use this code to fetch extensions
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addExtensions(new File("/pathtoChromeextension.crx")); //adding
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();
capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, options);
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(capabilities);
Use below to get crx file
http://crxextractor.com/ from your extension id which is omghfjlpggmjjaagoclmmobgdodcjboh
Simplest answer as far as I'm aware - manifest in subfolder of location you've referenced (e.g. 3.28.2_0' or whatever the latest version of extension is...)
This assumes you're using 'options.add_argument('--load-extension=')...
For options.add_extension('reference crx file .crx')
if i understood correctly you're trying to load a local unpacked extension into selenium
in that case this code should work
options = options()
options.add_argument("--load-extension=" + unpackedExtensionPath)
a better option would be to pack your extension into a crx file
For Python you need wright path to manifest.json file
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium import webdriver
path = os.path.dirname(r"C:\temp\mdnleldcmiljblolnjhpnblkcekpdkpa\19.5.1.10_0\manifest.json")
options = Options()
options.add_argument(f"--load-extension={path}")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
How can I find out which version of geckodriver I use?
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
Not sure if the new one is used or the old one when I use:
sys.path.append(self.driver_dir)
Thanks in advance
http://selenium-python.readthedocs.io/api.html
You can get capabilities of driver by below code:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
print driver.capabilities
It will print driver related info in dictionary form, which would also have info about driver version.
I'm trying to test my website with Selenium but I don't manage to change the language of the browser. I tried with Firefox, changing the profile also but it's not working.
That's a pity because much of my content is changing regarding the language.
Here is my Python code:
#classmethod
def setUpClass(cls):
super(SeleniumTestCase, cls).setUpClass()
options = Options()
options.add_argument('--lang=en')
cls.selenium = WebDriver(chrome_options=options)
So normally I change the language but nothing happens...
Just to clarify. I already checked on stackoverflow and if I post this question it's really because I tried most of the solutions I saw.
FIREFOX JAVA
Java code for changing the language to English:
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
profile.setPreference("intl.accept_languages", "en-GB");
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
options.setProfile(profile);
driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
CHROME JAVA
Java code for changing the language to English:
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("lang=en-GB");
driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
FIREFOX PYTHON
options = Options()
options.set_preference('intl.accept_languages', 'en-GB')
browser = webdriver.Firefox(options=options)
The answer is already available in one of the very recent post:
Change language on Firefox with Selenium Python
Here is the code:
def get_webdriver(attempts=3, timeout=60, locale='en-us'):
firefox_profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
firefox_profile.set_preference("intl.accept_languages", locale)
firefox_profile.update_preferences()
desired_capabilities = getattr(
DesiredCapabilities, "FIREFOX").copy()
hub_url = urljoin('http://hub:4444', '/wd/hub')
driver = webdriver.Remote(
command_executor=hub_url, desired_capabilities=desired_capabilities,
browser_profile=firefox_profile)
return driver
I have this java code please modify it in python
Using Firefox Browser :
FirefoxProfile profile = new FirefoxProfile();
//setting the locale french : ‘fr’
profile.setPreference(“intl.accept_languages”,”fr”);
driver = new FirefoxDriver(profile);
driver.get(“http://google.co.in);
Using Chrome Browser :
System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”,”D:/DollarArchive/chromedriver.exe”);
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments(“–lang= sl”);
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.get(“http://google.co.in);
In python set something like below
For firefox
driver.set_preference(“intl.accept_languages”,”fr”)
For Chrome
options.add_argument(“–lang= sl”)
Hope it will help you :)
This code apply to the simplest use case with browser running on local machine.
For Firefox:
from selenium import webdriver
browser_locale = 'fr'
gecko_driver_path = 'geckodriver64.exe'
profile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile()
profile.set_preference('intl.accept_languages', browser_locale)
browser = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=gecko_driver_path,
firefox_profile=profile)
browser.get('https://google.com/')
For Chrome:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
browser_locale = 'fr'
chrome_driver_path = 'chromedriver.exe'
options = Options()
options.add_argument("--lang={}".format(browser_locale))
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path,
chrome_options=options)
browser.get('https://google.com/')
