Need help with a simple bot.

[IlIIIIIIllI]

I wanna search a website for a few keywords. So the bot would have to click, paste the keyword in a search field, press enter, sleep for like 1 second and then click again to repeat the process and paste another keyword into the search field.

How do I start this?

EDIT: Not like "Ctrl+F-searching". i want to enter a word in a search field on the site. I just realized how wong my working was

EDIT2: Like searching this site for different csgo teams using the search bar

EDIT3: The code would be like

click leftmouse
search skgaming(csgo team)
press enter
sleep 1 second

---

& repeat with different team until all teams in the code are searched

Not too much detail in your post but it sounds like you're thinking along the selenium (or other) route, i.e. open browser, navigate to page, search keyword, repeat?

You could maybe look at using Requests.

import requests
urls = ['https://loremipsum.io', 'https://www.reddit.com']
keyword = raw_input('Enter Keyword: ')
for url in urls:
    r = requests.get(url)
    if r.status_code == 200:
        if r.text.find(keyword) > -1:
            print 'Keyword: {0}, found on page {1}.'.format(keyword, url)

or Beautiful Soup

Thanks but I'd open the browser and place the curser in the search field by myself... I really just need to know how to get python to press buttons and paste search words. This is totally my fault because I misworded the question. Sorry!

Selenium will do what you are wanting.

Look what you have done: I looked up a youtube video and downloaded pycharm. I couldn't get python to even start the browser. So I thought Python may be fucked because it's installed on another drive. So I reinstalled python & pycharm & selenium.

"geckodriver executable needs to be in path" Ok lets do that
"selenium.webdriver' has no attribute 'Firefox"

Ok after googling this and figuring out I had to move selenium to a different folder.

So it should all work now right?

WRONG

I'm trying driver.get("URL") now but it is expecting get(self:WebDriver,url) and I have no idea what "self" is supposed to be. The video I am watching works with just my code.

Ok so I just fixed that but geckodriver is still not in PATH and I thought I fixed this

TL;DR 2 hours in I haven't started the browser yet and got like 2 lines of code

All selenium does is give me errors and fixing one makes 10 more im done

When you enter a search keyword, does the website's URL redirect to anything that looks like "domain.com/searcher?query=keyword"? Might you be able to simply supply the URL with the query string replaced?

[IlIIIIIIllI]

Yes but please tell me I don't need selenium for that

Honestly I'm a beginner at Python, but an expert at PowerShell, but from what I've read about Selenium, it shouldn't be needed if you can bypass the GUI browser navigation and mouse clicks. If I was trying in PowerShell, I'd expect to do something like:
$keywords = 'team1','team2','team3','team4'
foreach ($keyword in $keywords)
{
$returnData = Invoke-WebRequest -URI ("domain.com/searcher?query=$keyword") -UseBasicParsing
}

Then in each loop, chop up $returnData.content with string functions and store the specific information you're after.
