Is there a way to configure PhantomJS webdriver on Selenium to do not load images? I know if I use phantomjs directly, I can start it with --load-images=no
and it won't load the images, but how can I configure that via Selenium and Python?
UPDATE Tried the following:
args = {
'desired_capabilities': {
'loadImages': False
}
}
driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(**args)
No success...
Why are you not trying webdriver.PhantomJS(service_args=['--load-images=no'])
?
EDIT: passing arguments is exposed, see the same answer mentioned below for how to do it
Passing arguments to phantomjs is not currently exposed with selenium's webdriver's init ... I have worked around that by monkey patching the PhantomJS executer. Check that answer changing service_args to the following:
service_args += [
'--load-images=no',
]
You could also opt to start the phantomjs server yourself, and just use the following call to point to an already running phantomjs at port 8080
# init the webdriver
self.driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(port=8080)
