How to make Firefox headless programmatically in Selenium with Python?
(7 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have this code:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
But how can I let the browser open up minimized or hidden?
The headless property will do the task for you. Import Options() from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
my_opt = Options()
my_opt.headless = True
driver = webdriver.Firefox(options=my_opt, executable_path=r'path_to_your_geckodriver')
driver.get("url_you_want_to_access")
All set!

Hello so i have been trying alot but i think it's impossible i need to run chrome driver using python selenium with headless on but at some point i want to turn off headless mode (in the middle of debugging for example) so i can solve the captcha or do something .. is it possible ?
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
import chromedriver_autoinstaller
link = "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo"
WINDOW_SIZE = "1920,1080"
try :
chromedriver_autoinstaller.install()
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument("--incognito")
chrome_options.add_argument("--log-level=3")
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")
chrome_options.add_argument("--window-size=%s" % WINDOW_SIZE)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options)
wait = WebDriverWait(driver, 10)
driver.maximize_window()
driver.get(link)
#i want to turn off headless here so i can solve the captcha for example
print("Cpathca Solved")
#Then turn it back on again here
except :
pass
No, you can't.
webdriver object is created with specified (or default) parameters that can't be changed during the session.

My code opens driver and opens website but gives error about:
AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'find_element_by_name'
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
driver=webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("https://www.python.org")
time.sleep(5)
search_bar = driver.find_element_by_name("q")
search_bar.clear()
search_bar.send_keys("getting started with python")
search_bar.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
driver.close()
Use ID to find element
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
driver=webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("https://www.python.org")
time.sleep(5)

search_bar.send_keys("getting started with python")

How to use Chrome Profile in Selenium Webdriver Python 3

Closed 3 years ago.
So thats my code, I want to open chrome with my default profile information in selenium. but its doesn't load and crashes when I click on profile icon in chrome
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--user-data-dir=/Users/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Default")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='/Users/Desktop/supbot/chromedriver', options=options, service_log_path="/tmp/log")
driver.get('google.com')
You should use full path to the driver file like:
C:\pathtodriver\chromedriver.exe
Also, avoid using Capabilities, try this approach:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "/path/to/chromedriver");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get('google.com')
