[FIXED] Cant find video downloaded with selenium on Heroku - Django

Issue

I have the following application I'm working on but I have an error that I can't figure out what I should do.

The application is as follows the user adds a link to a video, the task is sent to celery via redis, celery downloads that video and saves it to media/AppVimeoApp/videos/.mp4, then displays it on a page with src="media\AppVimeoApp\videos....mp4".

This app works fine locally, on heroku however the task shows me as successful but the video is nowhere to be found, I just need it temporarily.

tasks.py

@shared_task
def download_video():
    chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
    chrome_options.binary_location = str(os.getenv('GOOGLE_CHROME_BIN'))
    chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")
    chrome_options.add_argument("--start-maximized")
    chrome_options.add_argument("--no-sandbox")
    chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-extensions")
    chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-dev-shm-usage')    
    chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")
    chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-software-rasterizer')
    chrome_options.add_argument("user-agent=Mozilla/5.0 (Windows Phone 10.0; Android 4.2.1; Microsoft; Lumia 640 XL LTE) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/42.0.2311.135 Mobile Safari/537.36 Edge/12.10166")
    chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-notifications")
    chrome_options.add_argument('--window-size=1920,1080')

    chrome_options.add_experimental_option("prefs", {
        "download.default_directory": f"{settings.MEDIA_ROOT}\\AppVimeoApp\\videos",
        "download.prompt_for_download": False,
        "download.directory_upgrade": True,
        "safebrowsing_for_trusted_sources_enabled": False,
        "safebrowsing.enabled": False
        }
    )

    driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=str(os.getenv('CHROMEDRIVER_PATH')), chrome_options=chrome_options)

    driver.get('videolink')

    time.sleep(5)

    while True:
        try:
            driver.find_element(by=By.XPATH, value='/html/body/div[2]/div[1]/div[6]/div[2]/div[1]/a').click()
            break
        except:
            time.sleep(1)
            continue

    time.sleep(5)

    return ("Downloaded")

I am very grateful if you can help me. Thank you.

Solution

I finally came up with a solution

Heroku use linux so download directory need be

"download.default_directory": f"{settings.MEDIA_ROOT}/AppVimeoApp/videos",

And on windows

"download.default_directory": f"{settings.MEDIA_ROOT}\\AppVimeoApp\\videos",
