Chrome web driver arg chrome_options is deprecated

[yihaozhadan]

Chrome web driver arg chrome_options is deprecated. Please use "option" instead. For example, in main.py line 382, change to

browser = wd.Chrome(options=chrome_options)

Here is the reference webdriver.py.

By the way, may I be a contributor to your repository?

Hi, after changing 'chrome_options' into 'options', I still encounter the problem with error message: "The application was unable to start correctly(0xc000007b)." I followed all the steps in the README.md. However, still not working here.

Below is the error message:

@liudi1025 Did you download ChromeDirver? When you check out the repository. It requires to put chromedriver.exe and your Glassdoor credential file under the root folder. The structure looks like:

- chromedriver.exe
- main.py
- README.md
- requirements.txt
- schema.py
- secret.json

Yes, I did include the ChromeDriver.

Now I am getting the error message as:

I got what happened here: there are two chrome.exe in my computer and the path direct me to the crashed version of chrome... Thanks!@yihaozhadan

[yihaozhadan]

@liudi1025 It's good to hear that. No problem.

Hi, I tried the code, and got this error:

But my chrome version is 78, so I have no idea how to fix it...
