pyinstaller not importing chrome webdriver? selenium

Question

I'm using pyinstaller to create a .exe for my script to be used on another computer, the issue is when it gets compiled it imports webdriver/firefox it doesn't import the chrome webdriver which the script uses so the .exe won't run. I'm just wondering why this is happening and how I can fix this. I am using python 3.5

Answer 1

Download Chrome Driver for your machine from here: http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.20

Run it. And then you can use your Chrome Driver by this way (port may be different):

from selenium import webdriver    
driver = webdriver.Remote('http://localhost:9515', desired_capabilities=DesiredCapabilities.CHROME)

It works fine for me.

Answer 2

I get the same issue fixed by explicitly import the selenium.webdriver.Chrome in my script :

import selenium
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver import Chrome

I guess pyinstaller will not then forget this Chrome sub-module.
