I'm trying to scrape data from Elle.com under a search term. I noticed when I click the button, it sends a request that updates the &page=2 in the url. However, the following code just gets me a lot of duplicate entries. I need help finding a way to set a start point for each iteration of the loop (I think). Any ideas?
import requests,nltk,pandas as pd
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as bs
def get_hits(url):
r = requests.get(url)
soup = bs(r.content, 'html')
body = []
for p in soup.find_all('p',{'class':'body-text'}):
sentences = nltk.sent_tokenize(p.text)
result1 = [s for s in sentences if 'kim' in s]
body.append(result1)
result2 = [s for s in sentences if 'kanye' in s]
body.append(result2)
body = [a for a in body if a!=[]]
if body == []:
body.append("no hits")
return body
titles =[]
key_hits = []
urls = []
counter = 1
for i in range(1,10):
url = f'https://www.elle.com/search/?page={i}&q=kanye'
r = requests.get(url)
soup = bs(r.content, 'html')
groups = soup.find_all('div',{'class':'simple-item grid-simple-item'})
for j in range(len(groups)):
urls.append('https://www.elle.com'+ groups[j].find('a')['href'])
titles.append(groups[j].find('div',{'class':'simple-item-title item-title'}).text)
key_hits.append(get_hits('https://www.elle.com'+ groups[j].find('a')['href']))
if (counter == 100):
break
counter+=1
data = pd.DataFrame({
'Title':titles,
'Body':key_hits,
'Links':urls
})
data.head()
Let me know if there's something I don't understand that I probably should. Just a marketing researcher trying to learn powerful tools here.
To get pagination working on the sige, you can use their infinite-scroll API URL (this example will print 9*42 titles):
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
api_url = "https://www.elle.com/ajax/infiniteload/"
params = {
"id": "search",
"class": "CoreModels\\search\\TagQueryModel",
"viewset": "search",
"trackingId": "search-results",
"trackingLabel": "kanye",
"params": '{"input":"kanye","page_size":"42"}',
"page": "1",
"cachebuster": "undefined",
}
all_titles = set()
for page in range(1, 10):
params["page"] = page
soup = BeautifulSoup(
requests.get(api_url, params=params).content, "html.parser"
)
for title in soup.select(".item-title"):
print(title.text)
all_titles.add(title.text)
print()
print("Unique titles:", len(all_titles)) # <-- 9 * 42 = 378
Prints:

Actually, load more pagination is generating from api calls plain html response and each page link/url is relative url and convert it into absolute url using urljoin method and I make pagination in api_urls.
Code:
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from urllib.parse import urljoin
api_urls = ["https://www.elle.com/ajax/infiniteload/?id=search&class=CoreModels%5Csearch%5CTagQueryModel&viewset=search&trackingId=search-results&trackingLabel=kanye¶ms=%7B%22input%22%3A%22kanye%22%2C%22page_size%22%3A%2242%22%7D&page="+str(x)+"&cachebuster=undefined" for x in range(1,4)]
Base_url = "https://store.steampowered.com"
for url in api_urls:
req = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(req.content,"lxml")
cards = soup.select("div.simple-item.grid-simple-item")
for card in cards:
title = card.select_one("div.simple-item-title.item-title")
p = card.select_one("a")
l=p['href']
abs_link=urljoin(Base_url,l)
print("Title:" + title.text + " Links: " + abs_link)

this is the code, in the end it makes me 3 seperate lists which i scrape from the web,
now i want them to be printed in an enumerated way that the first job will be printed with the first company and the first location
one by one
anyone can help me on that?
As stated in the comments, use zip() function to iterate over the three lists together. For example:

soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, "html.parser")

print(c.get_text(strip=True))
print(l.get_text(strip=True))
print('-' * 80)

I'm creating a web scraper in order to pull the name of a company from a chamber of commerce website directory.
Im using BeautifulSoup. The page and soup objects appear to be working, but when I scrape the HTML content, an empty list is returned when it should be filled with the directory names on the page.
Web page trying to scrape: https://www.austinchamber.com/directory
Here is the HTML:
<div>
<ul> class="item-list item-list--small"> == $0
<li>
<div class='item-content'>
<div class='item-description'>
<h5 class = 'h5'>Women Helping Women LLC</h5>
Here is the python code:
def pageRequest(url):
page = requests.get(url)
return page
def htmlSoup(page):
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, "html.parser")
return soup
def getNames(soup):
name = soup.find_all('h5', class_='h5')
return name
page = pageRequest("https://www.austinchamber.com/directory")
soup = htmlSoup(page)
name = getNames(soup)
for n in name:
print(n)
The data is loaded dynamically via Ajax. To get the data, you can use this script:
import json
import requests
url = 'https://www.austinchamber.com/api/v1/directory?filter[categories]=&filter[show]=all&page={page}&limit=24'
page = 1
for page in range(1, 10):
print('Page {}..'.format(page))
data = requests.get(url.format(page=page)).json()
# uncommentthis to print all data:
# print(json.dumps(data, indent=4))
for d in data['data']:
print(d['title'])

I try to print all the titles on nytimes.com. I used requests and beautifulsoup module. But I got empty brackets in the end. The return result is [ ]. How can I fix this problem?
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url = "https://www.nytimes.com/"
r = requests.get(url)
text = r.text
soup = BeautifulSoup(text, "html.parser")
title = soup.find_all("span", "balanceHeadline")
print(title)
I am assuming that you are trying to retrieve the headlines of nytimes. Doing title = soup.find_all("span", {'class':'balancedHeadline'}) will not get you your results. The <span> tag found using the element selector is often misleading. What you have to do is to look into the source code of the page and find the tags wrapped around the title.
For nytimes its a little tricky because the headlines are wrapped in the <script> tag with a lot of junk inside. Hence what you can do is to "clean" it first and deserialize the string by convertinng it into a python dictionary object.
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import json
url = "https://www.nytimes.com/"
r = requests.get(url)
r_html = r.text
soup = BeautifulSoup(r_html, "html.parser")
scripts = soup.find_all('script')
for script in scripts:
if 'preloadedData' in script.text:
jsonStr = script.text
jsonStr = jsonStr.split('=', 1)[1].strip() # remove "window.__preloadedData = "
jsonStr = jsonStr.rsplit(';', 1)[0] # remove trailing ;
jsonStr = json.loads(jsonStr)
for key,value in jsonStr['initialState'].items():
try:
if value['promotionalHeadline'] != "":
print(value['promotionalHeadline'])

Hi I am trying to scrape this website with Python 3 and noticed that in the source code it does not give a clear indication of how I would scrape the names of the winners in these primary elections. Can you show me how to scrape a list of all the winners in every MD primary election with this website?
https://elections2018.news.baltimoresun.com/results/
The parsing is a little bit complicated, because the results are in many subpages. This scripts collects them and prints result (all data is stored in variable data):
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests
url = "https://elections2018.news.baltimoresun.com/results/"
r = requests.get(url)
data = {}
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'lxml')
for race in soup.select('div[id^=race]'):
r = requests.get(f"https://elections2018.news.baltimoresun.com/results/contests/{race['id'].split('-')[1]}.html")
s = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'lxml')
l = []
data[(s.find('h3').text, s.find('div', {'class': 'party-header'}).text)] = l
for candidate, votes, percent in zip(s.select('td.candidate'), s.select('td.votes'), s.select('td.percent')):
l.append((candidate.text, votes.text, percent.text))
print('Winners:')
for (race, party), v in data.items():
print(race, party, v[0])
# print(data)
Outputs:
Winners:
Governor / Lt. Governor Democrat ('Ben Jealous and Susan Turnbull', '227,764', '39.6%')
U.S. Senator Republican ('Tony Campbell', '50,915', '29.2%')
U.S. Senator Democrat ('Ben Cardin', '468,909', '80.4%')
State's Attorney Democrat ('Marilyn J. Mosby', '39,519', '49.4%')
County Executive Democrat ('John "Johnny O" Olszewski, Jr.', '27,270', '32.9%')
County Executive Republican ('Al Redmer, Jr.', '17,772', '55.7%')
I am making a project that requires data from imdb business page.I m using python. The data is stored between two tags like this :
Budget
$220,000,000 (estimated)
I want the numeric amount but have not been successful so far. Any suggestions.
Take a look at Beautiful Soup, its a useful library for scraping. If you take a look at the source, the "Budget" is inside an h4 element, and the value is next in the DOM. This may not be the best example, but it works for your case:
import urllib
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
page = urllib.urlopen('http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1a')
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.read())
for h4 in soup.find_all('h4'):
if "Budget:" in h4:
print h4.next_sibling.strip()
# $15,000,000
This is whole bunch of code (you can find your requirement here).
The below Python script will give you, 1) List of Top Box Office movies from IMDb 2) And also the List of Cast for each of them.

Well you asked for python and you asked for a scraping solution.
But there is no need for python and no need to scrape anything because the budget figures are available in the business.list text file available at http://www.imdb.com/interfaces
Try IMDbPY and its documentation. To install, just pip install imdbpy
from imdb import IMDb
ia = IMDb()
movie = ia.search_movie('The Untouchables')[0]
ia.update(movie)
#Lots of info for the movie from IMDB
movie.keys()
Though I'm not sure where to find specifically budget info
