Project Title
undetected-chromedriver — Advanced Selenium Chromedriver for Bypassing Bot Detection Systems
Overview
undetected-chromedriver is a Python package that provides a custom Selenium Chromedriver optimized to evade anti-bot services such as Distil Network, Imperva, DataDome, and Botprotect.io. It automatically downloads and patches the driver binary, ensuring compatibility with the latest Chrome versions and Chromium-based browsers.
Key Features
- Automatically downloads and patches the Chromedriver binary.
- Passes all bot mitigation systems, including advanced detection algorithms.
- Compatible with the latest Chrome versions and Chromium-based browsers.
- Supports Python 3.6 and above.
Use Cases
- Web scraping and data extraction from websites with advanced bot detection systems.
- Automating tasks on websites that block or limit access to automated scripts.
- Testing and development of web applications that require bypassing bot detection.
Advantages
- Zero-configuration setup for easy integration into existing Selenium projects.
- Regular updates to maintain compatibility with the latest browser versions and bot detection algorithms.
- Active community and issue tracking for support and collaboration.
Limitations / Considerations
- Does not hide IP addresses, which may affect the success rate when running from data centers with poor IP reputation.
- May require additional tweaking for optimal performance on non-Chrome Chromium-based browsers.
