Library

Downloading library provided driver

use std::path::PathBuf;

use webdriver_downloader::driver_impls::ChromedriverInfo;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let driver_info = ChromedriverInfo::new(
        PathBuf::from("./webdrivers/chromedriver.exe"),
        PathBuf::from("C:/Program Files/Google/Chrome/Application/chrome.exe"),
    );

    // Tries up to 5 versions of webdrivers.
    driver_info.download_verify_install(5).await.unwrap();
}

Implementing downloader for custom driver

You can implement trait WebdriverUrlInfo, WebdriverInstallationInfo, WebdriverVerificationInfo for struct CustomDriverInfo and call custom_driver_info.download_verify_install(max_attempts).
