How to use test_check_the_box_by_label method in Playwright Python

Reading your question I understand that your problem is not the download itself, your problem is the way of clicking the link that you need.

From that moment, you have to options:

1 - You know the date (exact text):

date = "2022-09-26"
with page.expect_download() as download_info:
    page.locator(f"//a[text()='{date}_TEST.zip']").click()
    download = download_info.value
    page.wait_for_url("http://192.xx")
    download_filepath = os.path.join(download_path, suggested_filename)
    download.save_as(download_filepath)
    context.close()
    browser.close()

As you can see you can use f"..{}.." for your locator string in order to use some vars for the locator, basically a locator is a string.

Of course you should know the date before, in my example is hardcoded.

2 - You don't know the date (Contains text):

with page.expect_download() as download_info:
    page.locator(f"//a[contains(text(),'_TEST.zip')]").click()
    download = download_info.value
    page.wait_for_url("http://192.xx")
    download_filepath = os.path.join(download_path, suggested_filename)
    download.save_as(download_filepath)
    context.close()
    browser.close()

And being honest, I think the line page.wait_for_url("http://192.xx") is not needed. Playwright will wait for your download, actually you don't need to wait for the url, I think.

For my examples I used selector with Xpath.

afaik, playwright uses a virtual keyboard and does not exactly send the same signal as a real keyboard to the browser application.

consider going native and using something closer to kernel like pyautogui, after you've focused you window:

import pyautogui
pyautogui.press('f5')

The solution is here in the github issue [INSTALLATION/BUG] - Selenium and Google Colab #548:

I am closing this issue with the @mathigatti solution

!pip install TikTokApi
!python -m pip install playwright
!apt install libgstreamer1.0-0 libwoff1 libgstreamer1.0-0 libgstreamer1.0-dev libgstreamer-plugins-good1.0-0 libgstreamer-gl1.0-0 libgstreamer-plugins-bad1.0-0
%%writefile test.py
from TikTokApi import TikTokApi 
#your code

Then

!python test.py

When you visit the page, playwright/chrome will need to send a network request to retrieve the PDF you're looking at. Just intercept that request, and grab the response body as a buffer.

If you are just navigating directly to the PDF, I think something like this would work:

response = page.goto(url)
print(response.status)
body = response.body()

# Open file in binary write mode
pdf_file = open('file.pdf', 'wb')

# Write bytes to file
pdf_file.write(body)

# Close file
pdf_file.close()

For Typescript/Javascript there is playwright-dompath which you can install with:

npm install playwright-dompath

Basically you just call the xPath function with the element you selected, and you get back the full xPath. Under the hood, it uses the same functions from Chrome DevTools.

PLAYWRITH_BROWSERS_PATH=0

Please make sure your above configuration was correct. There are some spelling mistakes in the settings. Its like PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH = 0

In your local.settings.json it should be

{

"IsEncrypted": false,

    "Values": {
    
        "AzureWebJobsStorage": "",
        
        "FUNCTIONS_WORKER_RUNTIME": "python",
        
        "PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH": "0"
    
    }

}

And In your requirement.txt file it should be

azure-functions
playwright==1.18.0

here we can see the playwright running in local as well as azure after deployment Local:

Azure:

At the end of each iteration of "y" you issue a mouse up event. However, you dont issue a mouse move event to the start of the new line before putting the mouse down again.

Try the below code:

    for y in range(100, 1000, 100):
        # Generate mouse points
        points = []
        wm(start_point, y, x, y, M_0=15, D_0=12, move_mouse=lambda x, y: points.append([x, y]))

        page.mouse.up()
        # Move mouse to start of new line
        page.mouse.move(points[0][0], points[0][1])
        # Mouse back down
        page.mouse.down()
        #Iterate the remaining points
        for point in points[1:]:
            page.mouse.move(point[0], point[1])
        page.mouse.up()

What dialog.accept() does is to accept (click OK) the dialog. page.click("OK") only works with DOM (HTML) elements, not with browser dialogs.

Instead of:

page.once("dialog", lambda dialog: asyncio.create_task(dialog.accept()))

It should apparently be just:

page.once("dialog", lambda dialog: dialog.accept())

This was basically a lucky guess, so take it with a grain of salt. I can't find a good source to back it up.

At the time of writing, the documentation for the Python version of Playwright doesn't seem to mention page.once() at all.

In the original JavaScript version of Playwright, page.once() is documented as part of the standard Node.js EventEmitter class, from which Page is derived. Nothing like EventEmitter exists in the Python standard library, though.
