NameError: name 'driver' is not defined about craigslist-renew HOT 8 CLOSED

How are you running the script?

from craigslist-renew.

Did you install all the required packages?

pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Keep in mind you will need to have a Selenium webdriver running on your machine for the script to work.

If not, I would suggest to use the Docker image.

Actually I can replicate this issue on my end. I will look into it.

I'm running the script from the command line in Ubuntu.

Prior to that I was receiving an error message about fake_useragent, but it turned out that I didn't have fake_useragent installed. Once installed, I started receiving this error about 'driver'.

I attempted to omit the webdriver path in the logfile, but that didn't correct the error.

Thank you, I appreciate it!

To answer your question, all required packages have been installed.

I also tried entering /usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromedriver as my webdriver path, but no change.

You should have another error (most likely from the selenium webdriver) prior to the driver error.

I'd overlooked the first one, but I see it now:

Something went wrong: expected '<document start>', but found '<block mapping start>'
  in "config.yml", line 5, column 1

The driver error is actually irrelevant. I will push a change to ignore it.

As far as being able to replicate this error, I actually had an issue with my Selenium webdriver instance. Once fixed, the script worked fine.

So you should focus on the first error generated. It should be either an issue loading the configuration file or initializing the Selenium webdriver instance in this case.
