Hi All,
Question to the scraping geeks.
Was anybody able to use CDP mode (SB or Driver, does not matter) within the Scrapy framework?
Tried a lot to research online or with AI, but could not reach any conclusion on the solution.
If anybody is unaware, below is the error you get when trying to activate CDP mode within Scrapy script
I assume it is related to the fact that Scrapy already runs everything in async, and adding another async Python does not allow.

Many thanks for considering my request.

If you're looking to use async/await with SeleniumBase CDP Mode, there's an async format. Eg:
import asyncio import time from seleniumbase.undetected import cdp_driver async def main(): driver = await cdp_driver.cdp_util.start_async() page = await driver.get("about:blank") await page.set_locale("en") await page.get("https://www.priceline.com/") time.sleep(3) print(await page.evaluate("document.title")) element = await page.select('[data-testid*="endLocation"]') await element.click_async() time.sleep(1) await element.send_keys_async("Boston") time.sleep(2) if __name__ == "__main__": loop = asyncio.new_event_loop() loop.run_until_complete(...

Otherwise, if you want nested event loops, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/61847103/7058266, which tells you to use nest_asyncio: (pip install nest-asyncio):
import nest_asyncio nest_asyncio.apply()
