§Chromedriver API (UNOFFICIAL)
This API is designed to interact with the google chromedriver. This is useful to create browser-based parsers or autoclickers.
§Examples:
use chromedriver_api::{ prelude::*, Session };
use tokio::time::{ sleep, Duration };
use macron::path;
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<()> {
let free_port = std::net::TcpListener::bind("127.0.0.1:0")?.local_addr()?.port().to_string();
let chrome_path = path!("bin/chromedriver/chromedriver.exe");
let session_path = path!("%/ChromeDriver/Profile");
let mut session = Session::run(
&free_port, // server port
chrome_path, // path to binary chromedriver file
Some(session_path), // directory to save/load chrome session
false // headless mode on/off
).await?;
println!("[INFO]: the session is launched on port [{free_port}] ..");
// open first tab:
let first_tab = session.open("https://example.com/").await?;
let mut first_tab = first_tab.lock().await;
println!("[INFO]: a new tab is opened on 'https://example.com/' ..");
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
// open second tab:
let second_tab = session.open("https://example.com/").await?;
let mut second_tab = second_tab.lock().await;
println!("[INFO]: a new tab is opened on 'https://example.com/' ..");
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
// inject script to first tab:
first_tab.inject::<()>(r#"
alert("Ok!")
"#).await?;
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
// do second tab active:
second_tab.active().await?;
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
// close second tab:
second_tab.close().await?;
println!("[INFO]: the second tab is closed");
sleep(Duration::from_secs(1)).await;
// close session:
session.close().await?;
println!("[INFO]: the session is closed");
Ok(())
