Chromedriver needs to be manually updated frequently

[bji219]

Chromedriver updates a lot, and it would be nice to manually download and update the latest version of chromedriver each time the scraper is run. I'll see if I can figure it out too.

Added these lines to the scraper.py file- should downloaded latest version of chromedriver into working directory each time the scraper is run.

# Get latest chromedriver zip file for mac, extract into same folder
try:
    version = requests.get('https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/LATEST_RELEASE').text
    url = 'https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/{0}/{1}'.format(version, 'chromedriver_mac64.zip')
    r = requests.get(url, allow_redirects=True)
    open('chromedriver.zip', 'wb').write(r.content)
    with zipfile.ZipFile("chromedriver.zip", "r") as zip_ref:
        zip_ref.extractall()
except:
    pass
