Automate all the web things with Selenium

[mavhc]

In python, because of course:

 

pip install selenium

or seeing as we hack https:

pip --cert C:\surfprotect.crt install selenium

 

create a folder, copy https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/ into it.

 

Then write some code like this, to log into a Ricoh photocopier's GCP app and add users and pin codes (no API for this that I can find), and save it in the same folder:

 

from selenium import webdriver
email = "[email protected]"
pin = "9999"
photocopier_password = "easilyhacked"

URL = 'http://192.168.0.2/googlecloudprint'
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.get(URL)
username = driver.find_element_by_id('admin_user_name')
username.send_keys('admin')
password = driver.find_element_by_id('password')
password.send_keys(photocopier_password)
password.submit()


driver.find_element_by_id('menu_item_4').click()
driver.find_element_by_id('create_new_mapping_btn').click()

username = driver.find_element_by_id('ga_input_new')
username.send_keys(email)
code = driver.find_element_by_id('uc_input_new')
code.send_keys(pin)
code.submit()
driver.quit();

Today's website is Educare, was slightly annoying as the forms weren't forms, and the element ids changed

 

# Logs into Educare and adds users

from selenium import webdriver
import sys, argparse


def create_new_user(driver, url, admin_user_name, admin_password, email, firstname, surname):
   # Call with a selenium driver, the url of the Educare login web page, admin user/pass, and email/name to add
   # Doesn't record failures, if user exists may silently ignore.
   driver.get(url)
   print("connected to",url)
   username = driver.find_element_by_id('username')
   username.send_keys(admin_user_name)
   
   password = driver.find_element_by_id('password')
   password.send_keys(admin_password)
   password.submit()
   print("logged in")

   driver.get('https://www.myeducare.com/blocks/educare_ssoclient/view.php')
   # click New
   new_button = driver.find_element_by_xpath('//*[@id="example_wrapper"]/div[1]/button[1]/span')
   new_button.click()
