使用python登录网页并在浏览器中显示结果

Question

I'm a beginner in python and as a learning project i decided to just make a little script to lunch a webpage and log into it. Now after doing lots of googling (got many messy bits and piece of knowlegde) i found out that each website have it own way of handling login requests, and that there was many ways to emulate an instance of a browser to retrieve and post data ( urllib2, selenium, twill and blablabla).

So I know it is possible to log in into a website from python ( for a specific site and using a specific way) but I can't seem to display the logged page in a browser.

Can anyone help me please ?

Answer 1

I think selenium can do this job.

code snippet:

from selenium import webdriver 
from selenium.common.exceptions import NoSuchElementException 
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

browser = webdriver.Firefox() # Get local session of firefox 
browser.get(yoursite) # Load page 
elem = browser.find_element_by_name("email") # Find the query box 
elem.send_keys(email) 

ps = browser.find_element_by_name("password") # Find the query box 
ps.send_keys(passwd + Keys.RETURN)

this piece of code will drive your firefox to open the logged page.
