# nodriver Async Python library for undetected browser automation via CDP. Successor to `undetected-chromedriver`. No Selenium, no chromedriver binary. Docs: https://ultrafunkamsterdam.github.io/nodriver ## Prerequisites - Chrome/Chromium/Edge/Brave installed (default location) - Headless environments: use Xvfb or `headless=True` ## Quick start ```python import nodriver as uc async def main(): browser = await uc.start() tab = await browser.get('https://example.com') if __name__ == '__main__': uc.loop().run_until_complete(main()) ``` ## Critical quirks (non-obvious) - **Never use `asyncio.run()`** — use `uc.loop().run_until_complete(main())`. - **`await tab` between rapid interactions** — syncs DOM state, prevents stale refs. Insert whenever elements aren't found or interactions fail. - **Fresh profile each run by default** — set `user_data_dir="/path"` to persist. - **`find(text, best_match=True)`** is expensive but accurate (matches by text length). Use `select(css)` when selector is known. - **All lookup methods retry until `timeout`** (default 10s) — double as wait conditions. `await tab.select('body')` = wait for page load. - **`expert=True` increases detectability** — opens shadow roots and disables web security, but WAFs detect it more easily. - **`verify_cf()` requires `opencv-python`** — English only, doesn't work in expert mode. ## Start options ```python browser = await uc.start( headless=False, user_data_dir="/path/to/profile", b
