How can I set the user-agent for Chromedriver?

[new2rust]

Hi,

I know for Firefox I there is a method set_user_agent(): https://docs.rs/thirtyfour/latest/src/thirtyfour/common/capabilities/firefox.rs.html#239-241

or for python one can do something like:

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
user_agent = "abc"
options.add_argument(f'--user-agent={user_agent}')

But how can it be done with Rust and the Chromedriver option?

Thanks in advance!

https://docs.rs/thirtyfour/latest/thirtyfour/common/capabilities/chrome/struct.ChromeCapabilities.html
you have this function.
This is an example of usage:

let mut caps = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
caps.add_chrome_arg("user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/102.0.0.0 Safari/537.36").expect("Unable to set user agent");

There is a method for this in the docs
So you can do something similar to what you already do in python

let ua = format!("--user-agent={}", get_user_agent_string());
let mut caps = thirtyfour::DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
caps.add_chrome_arg(&ua).expect("Unable to set user_agent");
let browser = thirtyfour::WebDriver::new(&grid_location,caps);

And continue with your usage

If you're trying to set a mobile user-agent, there's another way I used and it worked!

let mut mobile_emulation_hashmap = HashMap::new();
mobile_emulation_hashmap.insert("deviceName", "<DEVICE_NAME>");
caps.add_chrome_option("mobileEmulation", mobile_emulation_hashmap)?;

And you can get device names from chrome device toolbar. Like: "Pixel 7"
