Here's a video with a full step-by-step tutorial of how I built it: th-cam.com/video/6wwHv-cyOd0/w-d-xo.html

[@user-vn4jw3ch8w]

how is this automation when you just effectively use web driver lib and parse your input on terminal into browser ?

[@lesibamalebana1854]

Thank you for some good staff, please recommend me any course on Udemy for Python Automation ?

[@abhishekarya7915]

really impressive

[@alexhamilton3522]

says video is private?

[@curiocatalystshorts]

How do you guys open YT vids from a comment like this? 👆🤣

[@myleswolfe5139]

This could be expandable to work with the chatgpt api, and possibly bing chat if there’s a way to feed it text.

[@pacersgo]

You can ask chatgpt how to do it

[@jonthemonke]

I made this in rust

[@nikitafriesen3778]

There are plugins for ChatGPT API requests inside vim. I never have to leave my Editor, at this point I don't even use search engines let alone web browsers anymore

[@raracool04]

While the Bing AI thing would be fantastic, I doubt they’d do it because of money and also ethics reasons. What makes the web gui good ethically is that it cites its sources, so you can double check if the AI is wrong. The money part is that sometimes the links are sponsored.

[@cyrusmobini1321]

CopilotX was introduced a few days ago which has GPT built-in terminal

[@KunjaBihariKrishna]

I started programming 2 months ago. My favorite thing is to take something that takes 2 seconds to do, and write something so it only takes one second.
It's addictive.

[@yourface2616]

Too funny

[@metcaelfe]

"Software engineer over-engineers launching browser"

[@YourAverageTechBro]

story of my life

[@12crenshaw]

So basically you've automated clicking on chrome icon?

[@rob4187]

It’s easy if you’re already working in the terminal :p

[@MUSTAFK]

I honestly dont see much improvement here for me personally, but I guess if you do a LOT of programming and googling i guess it can save you significant time? The only big upside i see is the certain websites filter, thats a nice touch

[@georgek2092]

You've also cut out an easy source of procrastination if you're like me and think 'just one song before I solve this bug' when the solution isn't immediately apparent.

[@Ich.sou.gaymer]

I guess it is more common to let a browser open, and it also has suggestions

[@danielboczar7530]

Yeah, but starting from this, they could endlessly automate more selenium functions to interact with the system in brand new world of possibilities. Just a matter of time and will.

[@libruhh2785]

You don’t need to spin up a webdriver, you can just open the link and let the OS handle it

[@bruhpoop9396]

then headless is out the window

[@libruhh2785]

@@bruhpoop9396 Is it really all that headless if you're creating a chrome instance to make a google search? At that point you'd be much better off writing some kind of API interaction script. Regardless, in this video he is not attempting to do it headlessly.

[@youropiniondoesnotmatter]

Yuhhhh the algorithm has finally landed on something worth learning. Thank you for this!

[@inues]

If you're on Linux it's pretty easy to execute the same thing in bash. Just a one line and you can add it to bashrc or to a key command.

[@amodseth8448]

i actually made the same thing in my first year of college, slight update i suggest would add a args function to save the searches in the new folder

[@shr4pnel]

with chromium based browsers you can just add the executable directory to PATH and pass the url in as the argument

[@AlwaysBored1]

I'm new to programming looking forward to understanding this some day 😊

[@Flowermouth]

I had a function in my PowerShell profile which did the same, super useful

[@XwolfBane18]

Mind sharing the function

[@yassinesafraoui]

I personally find hitting the alt tab to switch to the browser and hit ctrl t to open a new tab and search way faster than opening a new terminal, unless you already have a one open, in addition you don't get suggestions this way, so I prefer to not reinvent the wheel

[@mynameisjeff9124]

Same

[@usuiXt]

This is awesome, nice coding

[@mangelozzi]

Real issue is that you're not using i3wm, which would get you to a new browser tab with less key presses than starting ur script

[@andrewferguson6901]

Or just alt tab and ctrl t for a new tab... 🤦‍♂️

[@neelg7736]

U can run i3 on macOS?

[@asceznyk]

Thank you so much! This is so awesome!

[@enchantedplays7860]

Would you need to have the script constantly running so that the terminal is always being read?

[@YourAverageTechBro]

Nope. You activate the command every time you need to use it and then it shuts down afterwards.

[@nikunjprajapati4761]

​@@YourAverageTechBrothen isn't it easy to just open google then running the script everytime 🤦

[@nikunjprajapati4761]

@putangina yeah i also realized that after watching the long format video.

[@mmpm]

You can add it to path and use it as normal script 🤓

[@Joe-zg9eq]

@@nikunjprajapati4761 not when you spend a shit ton of time in the terminal, which is what i do and am assuming the poster does as well

[@shadowplay1211]

Or simply use curl

[@luivcontatto7696]

Really useful 🙂

[@deadchannel8431]

This is rly cool but I feel like the Google search text completion is too good to not have

[@washikuddinahmedmollah58]

Wow this is really cool.

[@ishtarxdd]

ok the site filters part is hype ngl

[@Hugh_de_Mortimer]

You could just enter your query in search on the task bar.

[@69k_gold]

For Windows the PATH variable will work like the alias keyword

[@goldenslaughterer]

there’s also a plug-in for that in z shell 😊

[@seraph_86]

Thats mad💯💯👍🏻

[@DekritGampamole]

I just use gpt from my terminal through python. Many more interesting things can be done.

Why does this feel like a security concern

[@irfandy8]

I come to comment that it isn't.
Unless you run some script from web. But again those are some valid website, you probably ending up ruining your own directory tho.

[@compilererror]

Nice 👍

[@codewithash6011]

why you close your browser

[@tiltedz6440]

Since we’re already past the “I can, but should I?” Rhetoric, let’s take it a step farther.
Redo it in Java and use selenium to parse through and find the most upvoted solution to your search. Package it as a deb so you Can call it through the terminal. GL

[@arta6183]

why in java when you can do it in python

[@designchifuyu]

run chrome on while loop

[@andrewferguson6901]

Alt tab, ctrl t, start typing
It's like 4 keypresses....

[@officialteaincorporated243]

Auto filters the sites, fairly useful.

[@sohailu8058]
