So I've created a Python script which uses selenium to automate some stuff on a web page and I am having a small problem with PyAutoGUI module.
I am using it to Copy & Paste some data into the previously opened Chrome console and that works just fine. So basically when I run the script, a new instance of Chrome browser will be opened and then I will paste some .js script in the console of that instance and send 'ENTER' key with PyAutoGUI module.
The problem is that if I click on some other Chrome session, the code which opens the console pyautogui.hotkey('ctrl', 'shift', 'i') will execute in the session I am currently browsing in and not in the newly started one with selenium.
Any suggestions how to set a filter based on Chrome session?
Here's the code:
driver = Chrome()
driver.get('randomUrl')
def loopProfiles():
btnKey = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="L1"]/div[1]/div[2]/div[4]/div[5]/div/a')
btnKey.click()
formEmail = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="L1"]/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[2]/form/div/div[1]/input')
formPass = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="L1"]/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[2]/form/div/div[2]/input')
# Authenticate
formEmail.send_keys('user')
formPass.send_keys('pass')
time.sleep(1)
btnLogin = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="L1"]/div[2]/div[2]/div/div[2]/form/div/div[4]/button[2]')
btnLogin.click()
time.sleep(2)
liveFeed = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="L1"]/div[5]/div/div[1]/div/div[1]/div/select/option[3]')
liveFeed.click()
time.sleep(5)
pyautogui.hotkey('ctrl', 'shift', 'j')
time.sleep(1)
# copy content from cent-clicks.js file
jsScript = open('script.js', 'r')
jsScriptContent = jsScript.read()
time.sleep(1)
pyperclip.copy(jsScriptContent)
jsScript.close()
time.sleep(1)
pyautogui.hotkey('ctrl', 'v')
time.sleep(1)
pyautogui.hotkey('enter')
I am very very new to Python :)
Never-mind, I've changed the code a bit and found a way to execute js file directly so everything works fine.
def startClicking():
jsScript = open('clicks.js', 'r')
jsScriptContent = jsScript.read()
time.sleep(2)
driver.execute_script(jsScriptContent)
time.sleep(1)
jsScript.close()
