Source Code:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
path = "C:\\Python27\\chromedriver\\chromedriver"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=path)
# Open Chrome
driver.get("http://www.thehindu.com/")
# 10 Second Delay
time.sleep(10)
elem = driver.find_element_by_id("searchString")
# Enter Keyword
elem.send_keys("unilever")
elem.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)
time.sleep(10)
# Problem Here
page = driver.page_source
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, 'lxml')
print soup
Above it the code.
I want to scrap data from "http://www.thehindu.com/", It searches for "unilever" word in search box and redirect to result page
Link for Search Page
Now I have a question for this, How can I get Source code of the searched Page.
Basically I want news related to "Unilever".
You can get text inside <body>:
body = driver.find_element_by_tag_name("body")
bodyText = body.get_attribute("innerText")
Then you can find your keyword in bodyText.

I am trying webscrap the above link that has list of 350+ websites i need to extract the title of the websites mentioned
But I am failing to get any results i have tried with using requests and beautiful soup
then with selenium and all i am getting is empty list "[]" or none
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
# Send a GET request to the URL and parse the HTML content
url = 'https://www.g2.com/categories/marketing-automation'
response = requests.get(url).text
soup = BeautifulSoup(response, 'html.parser')
name = soup.find(class_ = "product-card__product-name")
print(name)
This above code is just a test code to check if the data is being pulled or not and the response is 'None'
From this code i am expecting to see the results of the class mentioned upon calling print
I kind of got this code to get something. Im still working on it.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
# Create a new instance of the Chrome driver
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
# Navigate to the webpage
driver.get('https://www.g2.com/categories/marketing-automation')
# Wait for the page to load
driver.implicitly_wait(10)
# Find all the product cards on the page
product_cards = driver.find_elements(By.CLASS_NAME, 'product-card__product-name')
# Iterate over the product cards and extract the title from each one
for product_card in product_cards:
title = product_card.text
print(title)
# Close the browser
driver.quit()
I'm trying to get some informations about a product i'm interested in, on Amazon.
I'm using BeatifulSoap library for webscraping :
URL = 'https://www.amazon.it/gp/offer-listing/B08KHL2J5X/ref=dp_olp_unknown_mbc'
page = requests.get(URL,headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content,'html.parser')
title = soup.find('span',class_='a-size-large a-color-price olpOfferPrice a-text-bold')
print(title)
In the pic, the highlined row it's the one i want to select, but when i run my script i get 'None' everytime. (Printing the entire output after BeatifulSoap call, give me the entire HTML source, so i'm using the right URL)
Any solutions?
You need to use .text() to get the text of an element.
so change:
print(title)
to:
print(title.text)
Output:
EUR 1.153,00
I wouldn't use BS alone in this case. You can easily use add Selenium to scrape the website:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options as FirefoxOptions
from selenium import webdriver
url = 'https://www.amazon.it/gp/offer-listing/B08KHL2J5X/ref=dp_olp_unknown_mbc'
driver = webdriver.Safari()
driver.get(url)
html_content = driver.page_source
soup = BeautifulSoup(html_content, "html.parser")
title = soup.find('span',class_='a-size-large a-color-price olpOfferPrice a-text-bold')
print(title)
If you don't can use Safari you have to download the webdriver for Chrome, Firefox etc. but there is plenty of reading material on this topic.
I have a sample website and I want to extract all the "href links" from the website. It has two drop downs and once drop down is selected it displays results with link to manual to download.
It does not navigate to different page instead shows result on the same page. I have extracted the combination of drop down lists, I am trying to extract the manual links and I am unable to find the link.
code is as follows
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests
url = "https://www.cars.com/"
driver = webdriver.Chrome('C:/Users/webdrivers/chromedriver.exe')
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(4)
selectYear = Select(driver.find_element_by_id("odl-selected-year"))
data = []
for yearOption in selectYear.options:
yearText = yearOption.text
selectYear.select_by_visible_text(yearText)
time.sleep(1)
selectModel = Select(driver.find_element_by_id("odl-selected-model"))
for modelOption in selectModel.options:
modelText = modelOption.text
selectModel.select_by_visible_text(modelText)
data.append([yearText,modelText])
page = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.text, 'html.parser')
content = soup.findAll('div',attrs={"class":"odl-results-container"})
for i in content:
x = i.findAll(['h3','span'])
for y in x:
print(y.get_text())
print does not show any data. How can I get the links for manuals? Thanks in advance
You need to click the button for each car model and year and then retrieve the rendered HTML page source from your Selenium webdriver rather than with requests.
Add this in your inner loop:
button = driver.find_element_by_link_text("Select this vehicle")
button.click()
page = driver.page_source
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, 'html.parser')
content = soup.findAll('a',attrs={"class":"odl-download-link"})
for i in content:
print(i["href"])
This prints out:

I have been digging on the site for some time and im unable to find the solution to my issue. Im fairly new to web scraping and trying to simply extract some links from a web page using beautiful soup.
url = "https://www.sofascore.com/pt/futebol/2018-09-18"
page = urlopen(url).read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, "lxml")
print(soup)
At the most basic level, all im trying to do is access a specific tag within the website. I can work out the rest for myself, but the part im struggling with is the fact that a tag that I am looking for is not in the output.
For example: using the built in find() I can grab the following div class tag:
class="l__grid js-page-layout"
However what i'm actually looking for are the contents of a tag that is embedded at a lower level in the tree.
js-event-list-tournament-events
When I perform the same find operation on the lower-level tag, I get no results.
Using Azure-based Jupyter Notebook, i have tried a number of the solutions to similar problems on stackoverflow and no luck.
Thanks!

The page use JS to load the data dynamically so you have to use selenium. Check below code.
Note you have to install selenium and chromedrive (unzip the file and copy into python folder)
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
url = "https://www.sofascore.com/pt/futebol/2018-09-18"
options = Options()
options.add_argument('--headless')
options.add_argument('--disable-gpu')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=options)
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(3)
page = driver.page_source
driver.quit()
soup = BeautifulSoup(page, 'html.parser')
container = soup.find_all('div', attrs={
'class':'js-event-list-tournament-events'})
print(container)
or you can use their json api
import requests
url = 'https://www.sofascore.com/football//2018-09-18/json'
r = requests.get(url)
print(r.json())
I had the same problem and the following code worked for me. Chromedriver must be installed!
import time
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from selenium import webdriver
chromedriver_path= "/Users/.../chromedriver"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver_path)
url = "https://yourURL.com"
driver.get(url)
time.sleep(3) #if you want to wait 3 seconds for the page to load
page_source = driver.page_source
soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(page_source, 'lxml')
This soup you can use as usual.
