# Use firefox addons inside playwright 

## Tools needed

* Playwright (https://playwright.dev)

* Python (https://www.python.org)

* geckordp (https://jpramosi.github.io/geckordp/)

## How to do

Use **Playwright** to create a firefox browser instance. Make sure to specify "--start-debugger-server" to allow **geckordp** to connect.

```python

browser = playwright.firefox.launch(headless=False, args=["--start-debugger-server", str(debug_port)])

```

Use **geckordp** *RDPClient* to connect to launched browser instance

```python

client = RDPClient(60)

client.connect("localhost", debug_port)

```

Get *AddonsActor* from *RootActor* from connected *RDPClient*

```python

root = RootActor(client)

root_actor_ids = root.get_root()

addon_actor_id = root_actor_ids["addonsActor"]

addon_actor = AddonsActor(client, addon_actor_id)

```

Use *install_temporary_addon* to perform xpi addon installation

```python

response = addon_actor.install_temporary_addon(addon_path)

addon_id = response.get("id", None)

```

If *addon_id* is not *None* addon was installed succesfully

```python

installed = not (addon_id is None)

```

**Have fun!**
