Description:   # Pyderman (Selenium Web Driver Installer) [![badge](https://github.com/shadowmoose/pyderman/workflows/Pytest/badge.svg)](https://github.com/shadowmoose/pyderman/actions)
        
        This is a fast, simple, dependency-free package that can automatically find & download any version of 
        the Google Chrome (chromeDriver), Firefox (geckoDriver), PhantomJS, Opera (operaDriver), and Edge (edgeDriver)* web drivers.
        
        This project was built to allow developers to seamlessly include selenium support on the user-side, without requiring any manual configuration on their part. It will automatically locate the correct driver binary for the platform & version you choose, as well as setting the os-specific permissions after downloading.
        
        It is [tested daily](https://github.com/shadowmoose/pyderman/actions) on Windows/Linux/macOS against Python versions 3.5+.
        
        To install the library, run:
        ```
        pip install pyderman
        ```
        
        
        Then call it in your code like so:
        
        ```python
        import pyderman as driver
        path = driver.install(browser=driver.firefox)
        print('Installed geckodriver driver to path: %s' % path)
        ```
        
        
        There are options for the output directory, disabling printout, running chmod on the downloaded executable, 
        automatic overwriting, executable file name, and version number. 
        All parameters are optional, and the default values are listed below.
        
        This example downloads the Chrome Driver instead, by changing ```browser``` like so:
        ```python
        import pyderman as dr
        path = dr.install(browser=dr.chrome, file_directory='./lib/', verbose=True, chmod=True, overwrite=False, version=None, filename=None, return_info=False)
        print('Installed chromedriver to path: %s' % path)
        ```
        
        The download is very fast, and will skip downloading if the file already exists. This behavior can be toggled with ```overwrite```.
        
        ### Note on MS Edge:
        Microsoft has switched Edge to use a flavor of Chrome behind the scenes. As of October 2019, Pyderman will download this MS Chromium Driver. There is currently no official release available for Linux, and their driver is experimental, so make sure you know what you're doing if you use this driver. If you require stability, it is recommended you specify a version instead of using the "latest".
        
        ### Note on macOS
        Some versions of macOS have certificate issues with Python. Typically, in recent versions of Python, it will prompt you to install these when you install Python. Since Python needs these installed in order to make https requests, you may need to install these first. Depending on your project, it may also be possible to include a library to automatically import these certificates.

        ## Why's it called 'Pyderman'?
        Because it installs *web*-drivers. [Get it?](https://youtu.be/SUtziaZlDeE)
