[feature] Cookie support for WebDriver Chrome/Javascript method #417

Closed Hukuma1 closed 1 year ago

Hukuma1 commented 2 years ago

I know cookie support was added for basic scrape, but would love to have this extended to the second method as well please.

Certain sites (e.g. Amazon) won't pull up information unless Javascript is enabled. However, in the case of Amazon specifically, certain regions will show a product out of stock if logged in. Without that logged in cookie, it shows a product in stock. Which is pointless/incorrect in specific use case. ;)

Hats off to you on making this project and with a nice web UI and I love the AppRise API for notifications! Keep up the great work.

Looks like this may be possible to add with https://pypi.org/project/selenium-wire/#example-add-a-request-header

I would so love to add stuff like this, but I also need to pay the bills and eat :( I would love to find a way to monetize this amazing project!

Yeah I hear you. There's the Patreon route, Open Collective, or even Github Sponsoring? Youtube Adsense, but that would require putting together some content (maybe a how-to/feature walkthrough of Change Detection?) and letting it accumulate views. Unfortunately, I'm not a coder myself, otherwise would have loved to submit a PR for this feature. I'm a good tester though hah.
