Selenium WebDriver Infrastructure

This repository provides a Selenium WebDriver infrastructure in Python. It is designed for web automation tasks including scraping, form filling, and browser automation.

Core Utilities

JavaScript API Injection

from xauto.utils.injection import ensure_injected
# core utilities call ensure_injected internally
# injects internal JS API into the page
ensure_injected(driver)

APIs can be extended to support DOM traversal, element extraction, in page URL parsing, etc.

Currently, the API provides:

• waitForReady() - waits for full document readiness and 70% of fetch() requests to complete
• closePopups() - attempts to close all tabs in window.openedWindows that are not the original tab
• stealthPatches() - masks common browser automation fingerprints such as navigator, plugins, etc
• Injection state tracking via data-injected attribute
• Safe reinjection on navigation or dynamic DOM reloads
• Code is frozen and hidden from enumeration

Driver Pool Management

from xauto.internal.geckodriver.driver import get_driver_pool
# create driver pool
driver_pool = get_driver_pool(max_size=10, firefox_options=options)

# helpful methods
driver_pool.get_driver(timeout=)  
driver_pool.get_driver_with_injection(timeout=)
driver_pool.return_driver(driver)          
driver_pool.mark_driver_failed(driver)      
driver_pool.cleanup_idle_drivers(max_idle_time=)
driver_pool.should_close_driver_for_pressure(cooldown_seconds=)

# get pool stats
stats = driver_pool.get_pool_stats()
print(f"Active drivers: {stats['in_use']}")
print(f"Total created: {stats['created']}")
print(f"Errors: {stats['errors']}")

Resource Monitoring

from xauto.internal.memory import get_memory_monitor
monitor = get_memory_monitor()
if monitor.is_under_pressure():
    # handle high resource usage here
    print("System under pressure")

# get resource stats
stats = monitor.get_resource_stats()
print(f"Memory usage: {stats.memory_percent}%")
print(f"CPU usage: {stats.cpu_percent}%")

from xauto.internal.memory import acquire_driver_with_pressure_check
# only acquire a driver when system is under CPU/MEM thresholds
# class Worker uses this check before spawning drivers
driver = acquire_driver_with_pressure_check(driver_pool, context="unknown")
driver.get()

from xauto.internal.memory import wait_high_load
# blocks the threads runtime preventing url navigation or DOM traverals
forced = wait_high_load(pool, context="validation.navigate", url=base_url)
driver._forced_navigation = forced

Browser Validation Checks

from xauto.utils.validation import is_browser_error_page
if is_browser_error_page(driver):
    print("Browser error page detected")
    # handle error page here

from xauto.utils.validation import is_connection_error
if is_connection_error(error):
    print("Browser connection error detected")
    # handle connection error here

from xauto.utils.validation import is_bot_page
if is_bot_page(driver, url):
    print("Browser bot page detected")
    # handle bot page error here

Browser Handling

from xauto.utils.browser_utils import close_popups
# closes all tabs in window.openedWindows that are not the original tab
# for cleaning up popups or new tabs triggered by window.open during automation
# close_popups is called internally by all page loading functions
close_popups(driver)

from xauto.utils.browser_utils import send_key
# sends keys to a form field with retry logic and optional iframe handling
# check_url=True waits for a URL change after pressing RETURN
send_key(driver, field, "username", check_url=False, iframe=iframe_element)
send_key(driver, field, "password1", check_url=True, iframe=iframe_element)

Browser Page Loading

from xauto.utils.page_loading import wait_for_page_load
# ensure_body_loaded is called inside of wait_for_page_load
if not wait_for_page_load(driver, wait_for=):
    print("Page failed to load")
    # handle page loading error here

from xauto.utils.page_loading import ensure_body_loaded
if not ensure_body_loaded(driver, wait_for=):
    print("Page body failed to load")
    # handle page loading error here

from xauto.utils.page_loading import explicit_page_load
if not explicit_page_load(driver, wait_for=):
    print("Page did not load after a explict wait")
    # handle page loading error here

from xauto.utils.page_loading import wait_for_url_change
# wait for a URL change after sending RETURN key
wait_for_url_change(driver, old_url, wait_for=)

Thread Safe

from xauto.internal.thread_safe import ThreadSafeList, ThreadSafeDict, AtomicCounter
safe_list = ThreadSafeList()
safe_dict = ThreadSafeDict()
counter = AtomicCounter()

safe_list.append(item)
safe_dict[key] = value
counter.increment()

from xauto.internal.thread_safe import SafeThread
thread = SafeThread(
    target_fn=dummy_function,
    name="DummyName"
)
thread.start()

Bootstrap

from xauto.bootstrap.build import bootstrap
if not bootstrap():
    print("Bootstrap failed")
    sys.exit(1)

The bootstrap system will:

1. Check python version is compatible
2. Download GeckoDriver
3. Create a virtual environment
4. Install required dependencies

Features

• Thread Safety: Uses SafeThread wrappers to isolate thread crashes from the main event loop
• Resource Monitoring: Real time memory and CPU pressure monitoring
• Auto scaling: Driver pool scales based on system feedback
• Graceful Shutdown: Cleanup and resource management
• Configuration Management: YAML based configuration with runtime freezing
• Proxy Support: Supports proxy rotation, authentication, and SOCKS5 proxies.
• Browser Automation: Firefox/GeckoDriver with some anti detection features
• Task Management: Thread safe task queuing and worker management
• Browser Error Detection: Built in detection of browser error pages
• Generic Infrastructure: Designed for any web automation task, not just scraping
• Logging: Multiple log levels and output files
• JavaScript API Injection: Custom browser API (_xautoAPI)
• Bot Detection: Able to detect pages with bot challenges for handling or bypass logic
