How to start headless browser with Selenium on Ubuntu using bash or Python

Question

I'm running a cron job which runs a Python script that uses Selenium. Selenium requires a display, so I've installed Xvfb, started the display, and firefox :

sudo Xvfb :10 -ac
export DISPLAY=:10
firefox

This works when I run these commands in the console, but I want to be able to do it with cron. How can I do this? If I run the virtual display as the main user, will they have access to the virtual display when it's needed by Python script/Selenium?

我建议您使用硒Ghost驱动程序（它正在运行PhantomJS ）。
