Playwright module provides a method to launch a browser instance. The following is a typical example of using Playwright to drive automation:
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright, Playwright
def run(playwright: Playwright):
chromium = playwright.chromium # or "firefox" or "webkit".
browser = chromium.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
page.goto("http://example.com")
# other actions...
browser.close()
with sync_playwright() as playwright:
run(playwright)
import asyncio
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright, Playwright
async def run(playwright: Playwright):
chromium = playwright.chromium # or "firefox" or "webkit".
browser = await chromium.launch()
page = await browser.new_page()
await page.goto("http://example.com")
# other actions...
await browser.close()
async def main():
async with async_playwright() as playwright:
await run(playwright)
asyncio.run(main())
Terminates this instance of Playwright in case it was created bypassing the Python context manager. This is useful in REPL applications.
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright
playwright = sync_playwright().start()
browser = playwright.chromium.launch()
page = browser.new_page()
page.goto("https://playwright.dev/")
page.screenshot(path="example.png")
browser.close()
playwright.stop()
Usage
playwright.stop()
Returns
This object can be used to launch or connect to Chromium, returning instances of Browser.
Usage
playwright.chromium
Type
Returns a dictionary of devices to be used with browser.new_context() or browser.new_page().
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright, Playwright
def run(playwright: Playwright):
webkit = playwright.webkit
iphone = playwright.devices["iPhone 6"]
browser = webkit.launch()
context = browser.new_context(**iphone)
page = context.new_page()
page.goto("http://example.com")
# other actions...
browser.close()
with sync_playwright() as playwright:
run(playwright)
import asyncio
from playwright.async_api import async_playwright, Playwright
async def run(playwright: Playwright):
webkit = playwright.webkit
iphone = playwright.devices["iPhone 6"]
browser = await webkit.launch()
context = await browser.new_context(**iphone)
page = await context.new_page()
await page.goto("http://example.com")
# other actions...
await browser.close()
async def main():
async with async_playwright() as playwright:
await run(playwright)
asyncio.run(main())
Usage
playwright.devices
Type
This object can be used to launch or connect to Firefox, returning instances of Browser.
Usage
playwright.firefox
Type
Exposes API that can be used for the Web API testing.
Usage
playwright.request
Type
Selectors can be used to install custom selector engines. See extensibility for more information.
Usage
