Auto login to website using Chromium

[Rick Rogers]

Hello, I am using the Chromium browser in kiosk mode.  The website I am accessing requires me to login.  I'm trying to find a way to set this up to automatically login to the website.  I was thinking we could use a java script, but I haven't been able to figure out how to make this happen and/or where to place the script.  Any help would be appreciated.

If you control the website, you might be able to use the new credential management API.

If you do not control the website, you can create an extension. Yes, this involves JavaScript. To get started -

https://developer.chrome.com/extensions

You will need to use a content script that basically fills the login form and submits it. Some login forms are more complex than others (use AJAX instead of a regular form submission, for example), so you will have to work through the hurdles (a search engine and stackoverflow.com are your friends).
