Drag and Drop problem (Pointer.down() / Pointer.up())

[Acanis87]

Hey,

as already shared in Discord, Iam not able to create a Drag and Drop movement. Maybe I do something wrong, but the documentation didnt really help me there, for up() and down() it just asks for (**kwargs).

I made a small example of the problem and of what I tried:

import asyncio
from selenium_driverless import webdriver

async def test_drag_and_drop():
    # Create driver
    driver = await webdriver.Chrome()
    try:
        # Navigate to test page
        await driver.get("https://kaliiiiiiiiii.github.io/Selenium-Driverless/index.html")
        await asyncio.sleep(1)  # Wait for page load

        # Find source and target elements
        source_element = await driver.find_element(
            "xpath",
            "//div[@class='wy-menu wy-menu-vertical']//a[@href='api/WebELement.html']"
        )
        target_element = await driver.find_element(
            "xpath",
            "//*[@id='rtd-search-form']"
        )
        if not source_element or not target_element:
            print("Could not find required elements")
            return

        print("Calculating element positions...")
        source_pos = await source_element.mid_location()
        target_pos = await target_element.mid_location()
        print(f"Source position: {source_pos}")
        print(f"Target position: {target_pos}")

        pointer = driver.current_pointer

        # Variant 1: No arguments for down/up
        print("\nTesting Variant 1: down()/up() without arguments")
        try:
            await pointer.move_to(source_pos[0], source_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.down()  # No arguments
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.move_to(target_pos[0], target_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.up()  # No arguments
            print("Variant 1 completed")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Variant 1 error: {e}")

        await asyncio.sleep(1)

        # Variant 2: Complete tuple from mid_location
        print("\nTesting Variant 2: down()/up() with complete tuple")
        try:
            await pointer.move_to(source_pos[0], source_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.down(source_pos)  # Complete tuple
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.move_to(target_pos[0], target_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.up(target_pos)  # Complete tuple
            print("Variant 2 completed")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Variant 2 error: {e}")

        await asyncio.sleep(1)

        # Variant 3: Separate x,y coordinates from mid_location
        print("\nTesting Variant 3: down()/up() with separate x,y coordinates")
        try:
            await pointer.move_to(source_pos[0], source_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.down(source_pos[0], source_pos[1])  # Separate coordinates
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.move_to(target_pos[0], target_pos[1])
            await driver.sleep(0.2)
            await pointer.up(target_pos[0], target_pos[1])  # Separate coordinates
            print("Variant 3 completed")
        except Exception as e:
            print(f"Variant 3 error: {e}")

        await asyncio.sleep(2)  # Wait to see the results

    finally:
        await driver.quit()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(test_drag_and_drop())

Result:

Calculating element positions...
Source position: [133, 327]
Target position: [210, 62]

Testing Variant 1: down()/up() without arguments
Variant 1 error: PointerEvent.init() missing 2 required positional arguments: 'x' and 'y'

Testing Variant 2: down()/up() with complete tuple
Variant 2 error: Pointer.down() takes 1 positional argument but 2 were given

Testing Variant 3: down()/up() with separate x,y coordinates
Variant 3 error: Pointer.down() takes 1 positional argument but 3 were given

Process finished with exit code 0

I think it would be great to add a Pointer.drag_n_drop() with a start element (or coordinate) and end element (or coordinate). I hope you can fix the bug or tell me, when it was my fault ^^

Thanks!
