Selenium-Driverless (Non-commercial use only!)

• use selenium without chromedriver
• currently passes cloudfare, bet365, turnstile and others
• multiple tabs simultanously
• multiple Incognito-contexts with individual proxy & cookies
• async (asyncio) and sync (experimantal) support
• proxy-auth support (experimental, examle-code)
• request interception (see events example script)

dev-installation (click to expand)

pip install https://github.com/kaliiiiiiiiii/Selenium-Driverless/archive/refs/heads/dev.zip

Dependencies

• Python >= 3.7
• Google-Chrome installed (Chromium not tested)

Installing

• Install Google-Chrome
• pip install selenium-driverless

Usage

with asyncio

from selenium_driverless import webdriver
from selenium_driverless.types.by import By
import asyncio


async def main():
    options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
    async with webdriver.Chrome(options=options) as driver:
        await driver.get('http://nowsecure.nl#relax')
        await driver.sleep(0.5)
        await driver.wait_for_cdp("Page.domContentEventFired", timeout=15)
        
        # wait 10s for elem to exist
        elem = await driver.find_element(By.XPATH, '/html/body/div[2]/div/main/p[2]/a', timeout=10)
        await elem.click(move_to=True)

        alert = await driver.switch_to.alert
        print(alert.text)
        await alert.accept()

        print(await driver.title)


asyncio.run(main())

synchronous

asyncified, might be buggy

from selenium_driverless.sync import webdriver

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
with webdriver.Chrome(options=options) as driver:
    driver.get('http://nowsecure.nl#relax')
    driver.sleep(0.5)
    driver.wait_for_cdp("Page.domContentEventFired", timeout=15)

    title = driver.title
    url = driver.current_url
    source = driver.page_source
    print(title)

custom debugger address

from selenium_driverless import webdriver

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.debugger_address = "127.0.0.1:2005"

# specify if you don't want to run remote
# options.add_argument("--remote-debugging-port=2005")

async with webdriver.Chrome(options=options) as driver:
  await driver.get('http://nowsecure.nl#relax', wait_load=True)

use events

• use CDP events (see chrome-developer-protocoll for possible events)

Notes: synchronous might not work properly

warning: network interception with Fetch.enable might have issues with cross-domain iframes, maximum websocket message size or Font requests.
You might try using `Network.setRequestInterception (officially deprecated) or narrowing the pattern

Multiple tabs simultously

Note: asyncio is recommendet, threading only works on independent webdriver.Chrome instances.

Pointer Interaction

see @master/dev/show_mousemove.py for visualization

pointer = await driver.current_pointer
move_kwargs = {"total_time": 0.7, "accel": 2, "smooth_soft": 20}

await pointer.move_to(100, 500)
await pointer.click(500, 50, move_kwargs=move_kwargs, move_to=True)

Iframes

• switch and interact with iframes

iframes = await driver.find_elements(By.TAG_NAME, "iframe")
await asyncio.sleep(0.5)
iframe_document = await iframes[0].content_document
# iframe_document.find_elements(...)

Multiple Contexts

• different cookies for each context
• A context can have multiple windows and tabs within
• different proxy for each context
• opens as a window as incognito
