Pi ChromeDriver issues

[IrealiTY]

Tried running the newly added Pi instructions with the following error:

I did change the line in service.py to self.path = "chromedriver"

Hey, maybe @InsanityOnABun can help you out with this.

[mihaiparvu]

Update and try with the --headless flag.

[InsanityOnABun]

Does this only happen on the nvidia bot, or have you tried others and run into the same issue?

[IrealiTY]

Thanks for your replies.

I didn't have time to check anything but Nvidia back then (since none of them was relevant to me in Germany).

I will check the headless in a min.

EDIT: Headless gets stuck on INFO: "2020-09-23 23:52:20,317 - Getting product IDs

But I imagine it has to do with the recent backend changes.

[joseph-tobin]

I added these params to get it to run headless

chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox") # linux only
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")

It ran once up to captcha point (Amazon) failed and then I restarted the bot and it never proceeded past 'Waiting for home page'.

Same problem here with Ubuntu 16.04. Stuck on waiting for home page. Where didi you add the chromedriver parameters?

[lazlod]

I was able to get the bot running successfully in headless mode by manually specifying the user-data-dir chromedriver argument.

Line 252 in stores/amazon.py:

options.add_argument(f"user-data-dir=.profile-amz")

to, e.g.,

options.add_argument("--user-data-dir=/path/to/fairgame/.profile-amz")

That's what was preventing the webdriver from doing anything on my end. Haven't tried with BB, just Amazon.

[LgWagon]

Ok, did you test if the auto-buy process terminates correctly? The only option I saw was to install a desktop environment, i.e. XFCE (working).

[lazlod]

did you test if the auto-buy process terminates correctly?

Yep, everything works end to end for me. Running the script (one instance, at least) with the following options:

--headless --disable-presence --no-screenshots --no-image

Edit: also on Pi OS, August release.

This has all since been fixed and should be fine to work with as of main version 0.6.0
