Is there a Python equivalent of selenuim as a module?

Question

Python

Task: write a Python program that will open sites through the built-in browser on QWebEngineView, parse the content, and interact with them. I don't want to use Selenium, as it opens a separate browser and requires more complex installation.

I found a way how to pull data from an open page using JS launch:

def callback_function(html):
    print(setText(html))

def on_load_finished():
    browser.page().runJavaScript("""
        document.getElementsByClassName('class_name')[0].innerHTML
    """, callback_function)

browser.loadFinished.connect(on_load_finished)

But the convenience of Selenium is missing. Isn't it a module that will at least use the same method (through JS execution) to do what Selenium can do in its syntax?

Answer 1

No.
Open the dev tools of the browser, see what requests load the content you need and repeat them in the script.
For such tasks, a browser is not needed at all.

Answer 2

No, selenium is the best (in my opinion) that manages the browser under python, it has a headless mode. Installation is not difficult, install the module and webdriver (if necessary). Otherwise, you should use js.
