I am trying to install chrome extension using Python Selenium.
When I click Add to chrome button a pop up(don't know whether it is a java scripted) is generated asking: "Add extension", "Cancel". I want to click "Add extension" but I am getting following error:
selenium.common.exceptions.NoAlertPresentException: Message: no alert open
My code:
from selenium import webdriver
import time
driver=webdriver.Chrome()
driver.implicitly_wait(30)
driver.get("https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/buyhatke/jaehkpjddfdgiiefcnhahapilbejohhj?hl=en")
time.sleep(15)
element=driver.find_element_by_css_selector("body > div.F-ia-k.S-ph.S-Rc-qa > div.h-F-f-k.F-f-k > div > div > div.e-f-o > div.h-e-f-Ra-c.e-f-oh-Md-zb-k >
div.dd-Va.g-c-wb.g-eg-ua-Uc-c-za.g-c-Oc-td-jb-oa.g-c")
element.click()
alert = driver.switch_to.alert
alert.accept()
help me to install it.
Updated code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.desired_capabilities import DesiredCapabilities
import os
executable_path = "C:\\Users\\SACHIN\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\chromedriver"
os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = executable_path
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_extension("C:\\Users\\SACHIN\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\chrome\\User Data\\Default\\Extensions\\jaehkpjddfdgiiefcnhahapilbejohhj\\
3.4.143_0")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=executable_path,chrome_options=chrome_options)
driver.get("http://stackoverflow.com")
driver.quit()
This is because the download option pop up that you are trying to select using switch_to.alert is not actually a JS alert pop up. You can not select is using Selenium's switch_to methods. You need to use the DesiredCapabilities class to select this option and then use it in your code.
As per the ChromeDriver documentation, given here, please use the packed( the one with .crx extension ) or unpacked extension file (directory containing the extension, including a manifest.json file) and load it using DesiredCapabilities. This can be done using
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
executable_path = "path_to_webdriver"
os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = executable_path
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_extension('path_to_extension')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=executable_path,chrome_options=chrome_options)
driver.get("http://stackoverflow.com")
driver.quit()

webdriver_manager site has a code to start webdriver with brave, but instead of brave it opens it with google chrome. My selenium version 4.6.0 gave the following code for selenium 4 (I also tried the given codes for selenium 3) as it can be seen on the site, but the webdriver still opens with chrome
# selenium 4
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service as BraveService
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from webdriver_manager.core.utils import ChromeType
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=BraveService(ChromeDriverManager(chrome_type=ChromeType.BRAVE).install()))
driver.get("https://pypi.org/project/webdriver-manager/")
Okay, so you just want to start a driver with Brave browser instead of chrome? Here is how I do that simplely, keep in mind I'm on Mac. You need the binaryPATH to the application.
add_block_ext = "Path to .crx extension"
driverPath = 'chromedriver'
binaryPath = '/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser'
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.binary_location = binaryPath
options.add_extension(add_block_ext)
browser = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=binaryPath, chrome_options=options)
browser.get("https://www.google.com")
I using metamask extension but when i restart the code, extension data is deleting. How can i setup that. I don't want to do that more times. My now code is like: `
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options as coptions
PATH = './chromedriver.exe'
options = coptions()
options.add_extension("meta.crx")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(PATH, options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.com")
input("enter?")
driver.quit()
`
How can i do that ?
I am sucesfully able to load my chrome profile using the flags:
user-data-dir as well as profile-directory, yet once the profile is loaded and the chrome window is actually open, no webpage appears. It simply gets stuck on a blank screen.
When I remove the code for the profile it is actually able to open the webpage stored in the login-url variable.
Tried updating to latest version of chrome (94.0.4606.81) and I also used the exact steps listed here to ensure I have the right chrome driver version.
I also did the obvious like making sure there are not any instances of chrome running in the background.
Code is as follows:
import os
from os.path import exists
import selenium
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
headless = False
login_url = "https://google.com)"
def startChrome():
global headless
try:
chrome_options = Options()
if headless:
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")
chrome_options.add_argument("----user-data-dir=C:/Users/ERIK/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/User Data")
chrome_options.add_argument("--profile-directory=Profile 1")
global driver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(path+"/chromedriver.exe", options=chrome_options)
except:
print("Failed to start Chrome!")
input()
exit()
startChrome()
driver.get(login_url)
input()
The following successfully opens google.com for me.
Selenium Version 3.141.0
ChromeDriver Version 94.0.4606.61
Chrome Version 94.0.4606.71
from os import path
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
def getDriver(profile_directory, headless = False):
chrome_options = Options()
if headless:
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")
userDataDir = path.expandvars(r"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\User Data")
chrome_options.add_argument(f"--user-data-dir={userDataDir}")
chrome_options.add_argument(f"--profile-directory={profile_directory}")
return webdriver.Chrome("./chromedriver.exe", options=chrome_options)
driver = getDriver("Profile 2")
driver.get("https://google.com")
This code works for Windows where it launches Chrome connected via Tor. Keep in mind you have to have Tor browser running beforehand. How can I enable the user-profile and start the browser logged in? I have tried the regular method. I have only 1 profile. Default. Doesn't seem to be working. Any clues?
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
tor_proxy = "127.0.0.1:9150"
chrome_options = Options()
'''chrome_options.add_argument("--test-type")'''
chrome_options.add_argument('--ignore-certificate-errors')
'''chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-extensions')'''
chrome_options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
'''chrome_options.add_argument("--incognito")'''
chrome_options.add_argument('--user-data=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\Default')
chrome_options.add_argument('--proxy-server=socks5://%s' % tor_proxy)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='C:\\chromedriver.exe', options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://www.gmail.com')
time.sleep(4)
driver.switch_to.frame(0)
driver.find_element_by_id("introAgreeButton").click()
Use this instead.
chrome_options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data")
you don't have to specify the profile directory (Default) as it is used by default if nothing is explicitly specified using below code. SO in your case use only the above line of code
chrome_options.add_argument("profile-directory=Profile 1")
Eg:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import time
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=C:\Users\prave\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data")
driver =webdriver.Chrome("./chromedriver.exe",options=options)
driver.get(url)
Output:
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()

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)
