Approach:
- Import modules
- Get the article name as input
- Initiate a get request to the URL
- Scrap the code and language name in which it is written using bs4
A lot can be done with this concept and using the given, for example you can directly save each code in separate file with their extension or you can scrap complete article and extract important information like writer details.
Below is the implementation.
Python3
import requests from bs4 import BeautifulSoup # input neveropen forneveropen article article = 'extract-authors-information-from-neveropen-article-using-python'index_Code = 3 # url # Making a GET request # to fetch article from #neveropen servers def getdata(url): r = requests.get(url) return r.text def codescrapper(soup, article=None): codes_languages = soup.find_all('h2', class_='tabtitle') codes = soup.find_all("div", class_='code-container') count_codes_language = len(codes_languages) print(url) if article and article <= count_codes_language: print(codes[article-1].get_text()) else: for x in range(count_codes_language): print(codes[x].get_text()) if __name__ == '__main__': complete_article_html = getdata(url) soup = BeautifulSoup(complete_article_html, 'html.parser') codescrapper(soup, index_Code) |
Output:
