Load cookies from alternative Google Chrome profiles

[ghost]

This library is super useful however it seems to be completely unable to retrieve cookies from alternative Google Chrome profiles. As someone who separates private and work browsing using Google Chrome's profile system this feature would be very much appreciated.

While ideally I would be able to select which profile this library selects I would appreciate just checking all profiles when the user requests cookies from all compatible browsers.

Thanks for the development!

Is there anything new on this?
That would be a great option! Many thanks for your work!

Hi @zeddrr,
This feature needs to be discussed with the owner of the project. In the meantime, you can use cookie_file parameter of the browser functions.

For example, if you want to load Profile 2 on Linux you can use:

import browser_cookie3

cookies = browswer_cookie3.chrome(cookie_file='~/.config/google-chrome/Profile 2/Cookies')
