You should download Tor browser yourself, extract it and pass the path of the extracted folder (not the binary) in the
tbb_path
variable. https://github.com/webfp/tor-browser-selenium#-usage
I think this shall be explicitly mentioned in the README. After all, the "getting started" workflow of a new user consists in trying the example listed in the README. By copypasting it. And it won't work. Because "/path/to/tor-browser/"
is a generic name, because locations are OS specific. Even better to improve the path of the extracted folder (not the binary)
by replacing it with the path of the extracted folder (not the binary), as in the path that contains the Browser/ directory and the start-tor-browser.desktop file
. On my Linux, Tor Browser is started by a distro specific tor-browser
shell script, which populates ~/.tor-browser/INSTALL
with content similar to what's in the official binary Tor Browser tarball (which I had to download and extract to find that out, as you suggested, so this is an additional, sometimes unnecessary step, if the example in the README can be made a little bit more explicit, as suggested).
It is also worth mentioning in the said example in the README that absolute paths have to be used. So "/home/user/.tor-browser/INSTALL/" (see above) will work, while "~/.tor-browser/INSTALL/" will fail with
tbselenium.exceptions.TBDriverPathError: TBB path is not a directory ~/.tor-browser/INSTALL/
from tor-browser-selenium.
Thanks for reporting. You don't have to provide a binary unless you need to use modified browser.
Can you tell more about the use case or share minimal code to reproduce?
from tor-browser-selenium.
Well, if I don't provide then I get error (tbselenium.exceptions.TBDriverPathError: Either TBB path or Firefox profile and binary path should be provid).
Here's a little part from code
import requests
import time
import tbselenium
from tbselenium.tbdriver import TorBrowserDriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
with TorBrowserDriver() as driver:#
print("Opening the webpage...")
driver.get("onion website")

How can I just open browser, if it always asks me to give it the path, but when i give it says that this is not correct path

I did it, but as I said, it gives me error "tbselenium.exceptions.TBDriverPathError: Invalid Firefox binary /Applications/Tor Browser.app/Browser/firefox" with code - tbb_path="/Applications/Tor Browser.app"
with TorBrowserDriver(tbb_path=tbb_path) as driver:
I don't know why it tries to add Browser/firefox but firefox is placed under Tor Browser.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox. And I use the latest version.

Unfortunately MacOS is not currently supported.

It's alright, but what system is supported?

Good suggestions, @toolonely . I'm reopening this issue to track it.
tbselenium.exceptions.TBDriverPathError: TBB path is not a directory ~/.tor-browser/INSTALL/
We can also use os.path.expandpath
to convert relative paths to absolute.

Added a clarification to https://github.com/webfp/tor-browser-selenium#-usage.

PRs to improve the installation instructions in the README are welcome.

README is much better now, just needs s/not pass pass/not pass/
.
