pydoll.elements.shadow_root.ShadowRoot

ShadowRoot(object_id, connection_handler, mode=OPEN, host_element=None)

Bases: FindElementsMixin

Shadow root wrapper for shadow DOM traversal.

Provides element finding capabilities within shadow DOM boundaries using query() with CSS selectors. Use query() instead of find() — find() and XPath are not supported inside shadow roots.

Usage

shadow_host = await tab.find(id='my-component') shadow_root = await shadow_host.get_shadow_root() button = await shadow_root.query('#internal-button') await button.click()

Initialize shadow root wrapper.

TYPE: ConnectionHandler

mode

Shadow root mode (open, closed, or user-agent).

TYPE: ShadowRootType DEFAULT: OPEN

mode

Shadow root mode (open, closed, or user-agent).

host_element property

find(id=None, class_name=None, name=None, tag_name=None, text=None, timeout=0, find_all=False, raise_exc=True, **attributes)

Find element(s) using combination of common HTML attributes.

Flexible element location using standard attributes. Multiple attributes can be combined for specific selectors (builds XPath when multiple specified).

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
id

Element ID attribute value.

TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None

class_name

CSS class name to match.

TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None

name

Element name attribute value.

TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None

tag_name

HTML tag name (e.g., "div", "input").

TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None

text

Text content to match within element.

TYPE: str | None DEFAULT: None

timeout

Maximum seconds to wait for elements to appear.

TYPE: int DEFAULT: 0

find_all

If True, returns all matches; if False, first match only.

TYPE: bool DEFAULT: False

raise_exc

Whether to raise exception if no elements found.

TYPE: bool DEFAULT: True

**attributes

Additional HTML attributes to match.

TYPE: dict[str, str] DEFAULT: {}

RETURNS DESCRIPTION
WebElement | list[WebElement] | None

WebElement, list[WebElement], or None based on find_all and raise_exc.

RAISES DESCRIPTION
ValueError

If no search criteria provided.

ElementNotFound

If no elements found and raise_exc=True.

WaitElementTimeout

If timeout specified and no elements appear in time.

NotImplementedError

If called on a ShadowRoot (use query() with CSS instead).

query async

query(expression: str, timeout: int = ..., find_all: Literal[False] = False, raise_exc: Literal[True] = True) -> WebElement
query(expression: str, timeout: int = ..., find_all: Literal[False] = False, raise_exc: Literal[False] = False) -> WebElement | None
query(expression: str, timeout: int = ..., find_all: Literal[True] = True, raise_exc: Literal[True] = True) -> list[WebElement]
query(expression: str, timeout: int = ..., find_all: Literal[True] = True, raise_exc: Literal[False] = False) -> list[WebElement] | None
query(expression: str, timeout: int = ..., find_all: bool = ..., raise_exc: bool = ...) -> WebElement | list[WebElement] | None
query(expression, timeout=0, find_all=False, raise_exc=True)

Find element(s) using raw CSS selector or XPath expression.

Direct access using CSS or XPath syntax. Selector type automatically determined based on expression pattern.

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
expression

Selector expression (CSS, XPath, ID with #, class with .).

TYPE: str

timeout

Maximum seconds to wait for elements to appear.

TYPE: int DEFAULT: 0

find_all

If True, returns all matches; if False, first match only.

TYPE: bool DEFAULT: False

raise_exc

Whether to raise exception if no elements found.

TYPE: bool DEFAULT: True

RETURNS DESCRIPTION
WebElement | list[WebElement] | None

WebElement, list[WebElement], or None based on find_all and raise_exc.

RAISES DESCRIPTION
ElementNotFound

If no elements found and raise_exc=True.

WaitElementTimeout

If timeout specified and no elements appear in time.

NotImplementedError

If called with XPath on a ShadowRoot.

query_script async

query_script(function_declaration, arguments=None, execution_context_id=None)

Run a JavaScript function that returns elements and wrap them as WebElements.

The function runs with the search root bound to this (document on a Tab, the frame document on an iframe element, the element itself on a WebElement, the root on a ShadowRoot) in the same execution context and iframe routing that query() uses. It may return a single Element, a NodeList, an array of Elements, or null.

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
function_declaration

JavaScript function source, e.g. function(tag) { return this.querySelectorAll(tag); }.

TYPE: str

arguments

CDP call arguments passed positionally to the function.

TYPE: list[CallArgument] | None DEFAULT: None

execution_context_id

Run in this execution context of the frame (for example an isolated world created with Page.createIsolatedWorld) with this bound to that context's document. Ignored when the root is a non-iframe element, whose object id already fixes the context.

TYPE: int | None DEFAULT: None

RETURNS DESCRIPTION
list[WebElement]

WebElements for every element the function returned, in return order.

RAISES DESCRIPTION
ScriptException

If the function throws or fails to compile.

CommandFailed

If the browser rejects the command itself.

execute_command async

execute_command(command, timeout=60)

Send a raw CDP command through this object's session.

The command is routed exactly like the object's own operations: a Tab sends it to the page session, a WebElement inside an out-of-process iframe sends it to that frame's session. Build commands with the factories in pydoll.commands or pass a plain {'method': ..., 'params': ...} dict for methods pydoll does not wrap.

PARAMETER DESCRIPTION
command

CDP command to send.

TYPE: Command[T_CommandParams, T_CommandResponse]

timeout

Seconds to wait for the browser's answer.

TYPE: int DEFAULT: 60

RETURNS DESCRIPTION
T_CommandResponse

The browser's response, with the domain result under 'result'.

RAISES DESCRIPTION
CommandFailed

If the browser answers with an error.

CommandExecutionTimeout

If no answer arrives within timeout.
