Bing Search Automation

This is a simple python selenium browser automation project, which is solely developed for making the process of earning bing reward points easier and quicker.

Usage:

Installation

We highly recommend you using a virtual-env for this project separately

git clone git@github.com:/krishnamodepalli/Bing-Search-Automation.git
cd Bing-Search-Automation/
pip3 install -r requirements.txt      # install the requirements for python
python3 main.py                       # relax, the rest is taken care...

Running the script

You can modify some of the settings like no. of searches and the browser to open in the script itself.

Please kindly refer to the app_configurations in main.py:54 for script setting like no. of searches and chrome profiles and browser paths.

For Chrome & Brave

We highly recommend you reading this before working with chrome in our project.

Working with chrome had become an issue since the start of this project. Working with various chrome profiles and keeping the bing (Microsoft) Account logged in and having the browser history saved, all this was a big trouble in the start. To solve this issue, we can create an empty chrome profile and start the browser in the remote-debugging-mode and then attach our selenium driver to the browser. This way, we can store the new chrome profile data and also match our requirement.

It is recommended that you create a new folder anywhere in your drive and assign this as the new chrome profile for the chrome and then modify the setting in the app_configurations

These setting configurations will be made easier and simpler in the upcoming releases.

Types of searches

There are 2 types of searches provided with the bundle, one is just a simple one with a lot of keywords in a single file and randomly searching those keywords, Or You can have a NEWS-API's API_KEY and provided it with the configuration of the app, you will be searching the latest news on the internet in the bing searches.

Compatible browsers

  1. Edge
  2. Chrome
  3. Brave

Will be adding support to other browsers as well soon.

Disclaimer: This project is still under-developed and works well with above specified browsers
Note: This project is safe to use and is completely working well.

TODO:

  • Convert this python script into a fully functioning console automation script
  • Enable customization of configurations with local user level config files
  • Add command-line arguments and flags for run-time configuration settings
  • Adding profiles for the configurations and settings, for more than one use-cases and more than one bing accounts
  • Add clear documentation for the project
