Detailed Explanation and Usage of Website Connection Options and Parameters

[PankajSavaliya]

Can you please explain these options in detail and when they should be used? There are many options available to load a website, connect, and disconnect, but why are these options available? I would also like to understand reconnect_time, timeout, and each feature so I can use them precisely.

I'm using this SB with multi-threading as per your document with UC so please give me the proper document for that way.

driver = Driver(uc=True, agent=generate_random_mobile_user_agent(False), )

1. driver.uc_open(url)

2. driver.uc_open_with_tab(url)

3. driver.uc_open_with_reconnect(url, reconnect_time=None)

4. driver.uc_open_with_disconnect(url, timeout=None)

5. driver.reconnect(timeout)

6. driver.disconnect()

7. driver.connect()

The UC Mode docs are here: SeleniumBase/help_docs/uc_mode.md

And those methods are described in detail in the UC Mode video tutorials:

---

(Watch the 1st UC Mode tutorial on YouTube! ▶️)

---

(Watch the 2nd UC Mode tutorial on YouTube! ▶️)

---

Disconnecting the driver from Chrome makes Selenium less detectable during that time.

# "driver"-specific methods added (or modified) by SeleniumBase for UC Mode:

driver.get(url)  # If UC Mode and site detects bots, then uc_open_with_tab(url)
driver.uc_open(url)  # (Open in same tab with default reconnect_time)
driver.uc_open_with_tab(url)  # (New tab with default reconnect_time)
driver.uc_open_with_reconnect(url, reconnect_time=None)  # (New tab)
driver.uc_open_with_disconnect(url, timeout=None)  # New tab + sleep()
driver.reconnect(timeout)  # disconnect() + sleep(timeout) + connect()
driver.disconnect()  # Stops the webdriver service to prevent detection
driver.connect()  # Starts the webdriver service to allow actions again
driver.uc_click(selector)  # A stealthy click for evading bot-detection
driver.uc_gui_press_key(key)  # Use PyAutoGUI to press the keyboard key
driver.uc_gui_press_keys(keys)  # Use PyAutoGUI to press a list of keys
driver.uc_gui_write(text)  # Similar to uc_gui_press_keys(), but faster
driver.uc_gui_handle_cf(frame="iframe")  # PyAutoGUI click CF Turnstile

@mdmintz in which these methods should be used? (Connect, Reconnect, and Disconnect) and when for undetection?

@mdmintz can you please explain when these methods should be called and which case? like click, and scroll.

@PankajSavaliya You've been spamming the SeleniumBase GitHub repo with lots of duplicate and/or off-topic comments in a short period of time. That's definitely unacceptable behavior, and grounds for getting blocked.

That's in violation of SeleniumBase Terms of Service policies, eg: #2249. You'll be blocked for your actions.

GitHub repo maintainers are not your personal task-rabbits. Maintainers lead busy lives, and we don't always have time to respond to messages in a timely fashion. People should be respectful of GitHub repo maintainers. Those who cannot be respectful have no place here.
