# For Linux, but it is similar for Windows
# First make sure first that you have chrome browser installed on your system.
# a simple way to get the driver is:
sudo apt-get install chromium-chromedriver
# this will download 75MB of files.
# another way is:
1. Download the lastest version of driver from:
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/ # only 5-7MB
2. Unzip the file.
3. Paste the file in /usr/local/bin using this command:
sudo mv chromedriver /usr/local/bin # this makes sure that the directory is in your PATH variable.
4. Make your file executable:
sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/chromedriver
Now you can use this in python:
>>from selenium import webdriver
>>browser = webdriver.Chrome()
# it will work fine
import timefrom selenium import webdriverdriver = webdriver.Chrome('/path/to/chromedriver') # Optional argument, if not specified will search path.driver.get('http://www.google.com/');time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!search_box = driver.find_element_by_name('q')search_box.send_keys('ChromeDriver')search_box.submit()time.sleep(5) # Let the user actually see something!driver.quit()
# Python code that download latest chromedriver for windows
# and extract it to C:
#
# For Linux version of the code just browser: chromedriver download python linux
# and the you found it
