In my cefpython application I specify a remote debug port:
switches = {"remote-debugging-port": "22222"}
cefpython.Initialize(settings, switches)
Run chromedriver:
chromedriver --port=33333
I'm using selenium python bindings:
from selenium import webdriver
chromeOptions = {'debuggerAddress':'192.168.1.42:22223'}
capabilities = {'chromeOptions':chromeOptions}
browser = webdriver.Remote('http://127.0.0.1:33333' capabilities)
browser.get("http://www.google.com"
I wanted chromedriver and selenium on a remote machine so used an ssh tunnel on
the client:
ssh -L 0.0.0.0:22223:localhost:22222 localhost
A nice bonus is that in chrome I can access "192.168.1.42:22223" and can use
the chrome dev tools on the open tabs in my remote browser.
P.S. If you don't want to specify the port you need to add the
"--remote-debugging-port" chromedriver supplies your app to the switches
dictionary. Also in the selenium script:
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.binary_location = "/path/to/app"
browser = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
