A python wrapper for public Google Forms.
This package does not implement form editing / sharing / other actions with user-owned forms
python3 -m pip install gforms
- Form parsing
- All form settings are parsed
- Multi-page forms are supported
- Elements with input validation are supported
- Form filling
- Fill the entire form using a single callback function (see example)
- Fill individual elements
- Validate the form before submission
- Form submission
- Faster submission for multi-page forms (history emulation)
- Forms with required sign-in cannot be submitted
- Forms with file upload cannot be parsed (sign-in is required for loading the form)
- A CAPTCHA needs to be solved in order to send an e-mail with a response copy (when this option is enabled). CAPTCHA handling should be implemented separately
- Form style is not parsed
See example.py for more details.

# fill an element based on its type and name

form = Form()
form.load(url)
print(form.to_str(indent=2)) # a text representation, may be useful for CLI applications
form.fill(callback)
form.submit()
# Faster submission for multi-page forms (use only one POST request)
# (in theory, you may get banned, but now the actual number of requests isn't checked)
form.submit(emulate_history=True)
