Needs help disconnecting chrome webdriver from chrome browser session

[Couch_Tater]

Hello,

I am trying to disconnect the chrome web driver from the chrome browser session.

After I close the terminal that ran the code, the browser closes.

My code:

from selenium import webdriver

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service asChromeService

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

from selenium.webdriver.support importexpected_conditions as EC

import os

import subprocess

 

def open_chrome_browser(urls):

    try:

        user_name = os.getlogin().lower()

        options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() # initiates ChromeOptions so the options are attached to the chromedriver

        options.add_experimental_option("detach", True) # allows for the browser to disconnect the chromedriver

        # and remain open.

        options.add_argument(rf"user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\{user_name}\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data") # adds the Default Chrome Profile location

        options.add_argument(r"--profile-directory=Default")# uses the Default Chrome profile for the chromedriver

        options.add_argument('log-level=3') # sets log level to 3 insted of 0 to accomodate for AWS connection

        options.add_argument("--disable-infobars")  # Disables the "Chrome is being controlled" message

        options.add_experimental_option("excludeSwitches", ["enable-automation"])  # Removes the automation flag

        options.add_experimental_option('useAutomationExtension', False)  # Ensures the extension is not used

        #specify path to the chromedriver executable

        chrome_driver_path = rf'C:\\Users\\{user_name}\\invoke_processes\\SDA_Tool\\selenium\\chromedriver\\win64\\126.0.6478.126\\chromedriver.exe'

        service = ChromeService(executable_path=chrome_driver_path)

        driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)

        driver.get(urls[0])

        WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(

            EC.presence_of_element_located((By.TAG_NAME, 'body'))  # Wait until the body tag is present

        )

        for url in urls[1:]:

            driver.execute_script("window.open('');")

            driver.switch_to.window(driver.window_handles[-1])

            driver.get(url)

            WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(

                EC.presence_of_element_located((By.TAG_NAME, 'body'))  # Wait until the body tag is present

            )

 

        #detach the Webdriver from the browser

        #Optionally, kill the ChromeDriver process if it was started with subprocess

        #subprocess.Popen([chrome_driver_path], stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE).terminate()

 

        # optional Wait for a few seconds to ensure the page is fully loaded

        #time.sleep(2)

       

    except Exception as e:

        print(f'Error occuured: {e}')
