4.42.3 - CDP Mode: Patch 63

CDP Mode: Patch 63

• Add command-line shortcuts for Pure CDP Mode (sb_cdp)
  --> This resolves #4008
• Improve certain types of clicks in CDP Mode
  --> May improve clicking of <div> and <input> elements
• Refresh Python dependencies
  --> This resolves #4009
• Update CDP Mode examples

---

For Pure CDP Mode (sb_cdp), we're adding the ability to set options via command-line args. Here's what to expect, with examples:

python SCRIPT.py --incognito
python SCRIPT.py --guest
python SCRIPT.py --headless
python SCRIPT.py --ad-block
python SCRIPT.py --agent="MY NEW USER AGENT"
python SCRIPT.py --geolocation="(31.774390, 35.222450)"
python SCRIPT.py --timezone=="Asia/Kolkata"
python SCRIPT.py --platform="MacIntel"
python SCRIPT.py --lang="fr"
python SCRIPT.py --proxy="USER:PASS@SERVER:PORT"
python SCRIPT.py --binary-location="/Applications/Brave Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave Browser"

There are a few additional options on Linux, such as --gui/--headed, (which overrides the default Linux headless mode).
And there's --xvfb on Linux for the special virtual display (which may already be set by default if not using other options).

This aims to simplify option-handling, as you will no longer need to modify a script itself in order to change how it runs.

Note that all these options were already available via method args passed into sb_cdp.Chrome(). Method args always take priority over command-line options. For example, if you set the binary_location / browser_executable_path via method arg, but set a different one on the command-line, then the method arg takes priority.

sb.cdp.is_attribute_present(selector, attribute, value=None)

CDP Mode: Patch 57

• Make improvements to CDP Mode
• Refresh Python dependencies
• Update CDP Mode examples
• Update visual testing examples
• Update an example

One of the key improvements is being able to click through multiple CAPTCHAs at nearly the same time.
See the following example: SeleniumBase/examples/cdp_mode/raw_multi_captcha.py, which spins up multiple windows via ThreadPoolExecutor, and then solves mutliple CAPTCHAs.

from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
from random import randint
from seleniumbase import decorators
from seleniumbase import sb_cdp

def main(url):
    sb = sb_cdp.Chrome(url, lang="en")
    sb.set_window_rect(randint(4, 680), randint(8, 380), 840, 520)
    sb.sleep(2.2)
    sb.gui_click_captcha()
    sb.sleep(2)
    sb.driver.quit()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    urls = ["https://seleniumbase.io/apps/turnstile" for i in range(5)]
    with decorators.print_runtime("raw_multi_captcha.py"):
        with ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=len(urls)) as executor:
            for url in urls:
                executor.submit(main, url)
