Lua Selenium Driver is a Selenium 1 (Selenium RC) client library that provide a programming interface (API), i.e., a set of functions, which run Selenium commands. Within each interface, there is a programming function that supports each Selenese command.
A Lua-based crawling scripting language and leveraging selenium
I needed a way to crawl a site, crawling using commands. I would put commands in a file or DB to use selenium to interpret the HTML and Javascript. The best would be to have a complete language with conditionals and looping. I'm a java developper and I needed that the crawler to run in a Spring-Boot application. So I decided to use a Lua interpreter in Java to build a crawling tool based on Selenium.
The trick here is to add the crawling commands into the Lua interpreter.
