Flask client¶
To use the flask driver, you need to install Flask,
lxml and cssselect.
You can install all of them in one step by running:
$ pip install splinter[flask]
Using Flask client¶
To use the flask driver, you’ll need to pass the string flask and an app instances via the
app keyword argument when you create the Browser instance:
from splinter import Browser
browser = Browser('flask', app=app)
Note: if you don’t provide any driver to Browser function, firefox will be used.
When visiting pages with the Flask client, you only need to provide a path rather than a full URL. For example:
browser.visit('/my-path')
