This library was created in order to help users quick-start their webscraping project. It includes several useful functions including a browser handler, new tab functionality, and more.
$ pip3 install fBrowser
You can decorate your function with a browserHandler. This will create the driver and properly quit it if an exception occurs or when the program ends.
import fBrowser
from time import sleep
@fBrowser.browserHandler()
def main(driver):
driver.get('https://www.google.com')
sleep(5)
main()
Run a function in a new tab of Chrome. It will automatically close and switch contexts when it finishes executing.
import fBrowser
from time import sleep
def loadTheVerge(driver):
driver.get('https://www.theverge.com')
@fBrowser.browserHandler()
def main(driver):
driver.get('https://www.google.com')
sleep(2)
fBrowser.newTab(loadTheVerge)(driver)
sleep(2)
main()
Use this helper function to login into a site. Simply pass in your email / username and your password. (This function assumes that the input tags in the form have attributes @type=username, @type=email, or @type=password).
import fBrowser
@fBrowser.browserHandler()
def main(driver):
driver.get(
'https://stackoverflow.com/users/login')
fBrowser.login(driver, email='testing@gmail.com', password='abc123')
main()
Quickly fill multiple inputs with either a single value or multiple values.
import fBrowser
@fBrowser.browserHandler()
def main(driver):
driver.get('example.com')
# A list of xpaths to the inputs
xpaths = ['//*[@name="foo"]', '//*[@name="bar"]', '//@name="fooBar"']
# Fill with multiple values
fBrowser.fillInputs(driver, xpaths, ['value1', 'value2', 'value3'])
# Or pass in one value
fBrowser.fillInputs(driver, xpaths, 'hello world')
main()
Don't want to get flagged as a bot? Fill your inputs using a human-like typing speed.
import fBrowser
from time import sleep
@fBrowser.browserHandler()
def main(driver):
driver.get('https://www.google.com')
chatInput = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@name="q"]')
# Will input the string at a human-like typing speed
fBrowser.humanType(driver, chatInput, 'Hello world!')
sleep(5)
main()
