Downloads Selenium related binaries for your OS

# selenium-binaries [![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Downloads][downloads-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][travis-image]][travis-url]
> Downloads Selenium related binaries for your OS

## How do I use this?
1. Add it as a dependency in your `package.json` file.
2. `npm install`
3. `var chromedriverPath = require('selenium-binaries').chromedriver;`
4. `process.env.CHROME_DRIVER_PATH = chromedriverPath;` Do this as required.

The module exposes the following paths:
* `chromedriver`
* `geckodriver`
* `iedriver`
* `seleniumserver`

## Where do binaries get installed?
If you're running as `root` on \*nix based systems, binaries go under
`/lib/selenium-binaries`. Otherwise, binaries go under `$HOME/.selenium-binaries`.
Installing multiple versions of the same binary is handled appropriately across
your projects.

Set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_HOME` environment variable to use a specific location
where to install binaries.

## Why not put binaries in the project?
Because they exceed 36MB in size. Save the hard drive!

## Binaries
Here's the deal...

### selenium-server-standalone.jar
You need to install this on any OS, so this module takes care of that.
To manually specify which version gets installed, set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_SERVER_STANDALONE_VERSION` environment variable (default: `3.141.59`).

### ChromeDriver
You need to install this on any OS, so this module takes care of that.
To manually specify which version gets installed, set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION` environment variable (default: `89.0.4389.23`).

### GeckoDriver
You need to install this on any OS, so this module takes care of that.
To manually specify which version gets installed, set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_GECKODRIVER_VERSION` environment variable (default: `0.29.0`).

### IEDriver
You only need this on windows, so this module takes care of that.

In addition, you have to set registry values that deal with IE security settings.
This module takes care of that as well.
To manually specify which version gets installed, set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_IEDRIVER_VERSION` environment variable (default: `3.150.1`).

## Can I force the usage of 32 bits binaries instead of 64 bits when available?
Sure, set the `SELENIUM_BINARIES_FORCE_32BITS` environment variable to `1` or `true`.
