Introduction to Web Scraping

Scraping

A little primitive method

When extracting a specific part of a web page

Python3


import requests
import json

r = requests.get('https://nikkei225jp.com/chart/')
text = r.text #Returns an html object

date    = text.split('<div class=wtimeT>')[1].split('</div>')[0]
nikkei   = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[1].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')
dau       = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[2].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')
kawase = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[3].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')

print('today',date,'is')
print ('Nikkei Stock Average',nikkei, 'It's a yen')
print ('Dow Jones Industrial Average', dau, 'It's a yen')
print ('Currency dollar', kawase,'It's a yen')

a=open('shares.csv','w')
a.write('Date and time,Nikkei Stock Average,Dow Jones Industrial Average,Currency dollar\n')
a.write(date+','+nikkei+','+dau+','+kawase+'\n')
a.close()

Result (command line)


Today is 2019/03/23
Nikkei Stock Average is 21627.It's 34 yen
Dow Jones Industrial Average is 25502.32 yen
Exchange dollar is 109.It's 93 yen

I think it was printed like this

Results (shares.csv)


Date and time,Nikkei Stock Average,Dow Jones Industrial Average,Currency dollar
2019/03/23,21627.34,25502.32,109.93

I confirmed that a file like this has been created.

What the program did

Of this Nikkei Stock Average *** Date and time, Nikkei Stock Average, Dow Jones Industrial Average, Forex Dollar *** Information such as was extracted, printed, and saved.

スクリーンショット 2019-03-23 2.37.50.png Quote: https://nikkei225jp.com/chart/

Of this page スクリーンショット 2019-03-23 2.38.10.png I'm extracting the information of this part

Web scraping also has a convenient way to use *** Beautiful Soup *** or *** Selenium ***

This time, we adopted the primitive method of *** requests *** only ~

As a flow

r = requests.get('URL of the page you want to scrape')

The response (page information) returned in is stored in the variable *** r ***

text = r.text

Getch in text format with the body (HTML body) of the response *** r *** returned in step as *** text ***

スクリーンショット 2019-03-23 3.26.59.png

For example, *** Nikkei Stock Average ***, *** 21,627.34 ***

If you want to extract

Select the information you want to extract as shown above Search for "** Validate " or " View Page Source **"

<div class="if_cur">21,627.34</div><img width="674" alt="Screenshot 2020-04-14 18.27.54.png " src="https://qiita-image-store.s3.ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/0/377231/64fddc0e-29c5-8d2a-09ee-bb3656fc0895.png ">

In this way, the class *** if_cur *** is sandwiched.

nikkei   = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[1].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')

The contents are extracted as *** nikkei *** in this one line.

Example 2) Example of date and time extraction スクリーンショット 2020-04-14 18.27.54.png

.replace (',','') just removes the comma (,). Because the comma in the number is an obstacle. (If you want to convert to int type later and perform the operation, you cannot convert to int type if commas remain)

*** Dow Jones Industrial Average ***, *** Currency Dollar ***, *** Time *** is the same way

The most primitive but method that can handle various patterns.

Smart method

This time, ** extract all the links (URLs) that exist on the Nikkei Stock Average page.

This time, if I draw the code to extract one by one like before, there is no sharpness

For the time being, a pattern that extracts all *** a *** tags (tags with URLs) and stores them in an array

*** Beautiful Soup *** is now

$ pip install beautifulsoup4

I just added the *** a *** tag acquisition code to the previous code

import requests
import json
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

r = requests.get('https://nikkei225jp.com/chart/')
text = r.text
date    = text.split('<div class=wtimeT>')[1].split('</div>')[0]
nikkei   = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[1].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')
dau       = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[2].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')
kawase = text.split('<div class=if_cur>')[3].split('</div>')[0].replace(',','')

print('today',date,'is')
print ('Nikkei Stock Average',nikkei, 'It's a yen')
print ('Dow Jones Industrial Average', dau, 'It's a yen')
print ('Currency dollar', kawase,'It's a yen')

a=open('shares.csv','w')
a.write('Date and time,Nikkei Stock Average,Dow Jones Industrial Average,Currency dollar\n')
a.write(date+','+nikkei+','+dau+','+kawase+'\n')
a.close()


#Below is the additional amount
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text , "html.parser") 

for a in soup.find_all('a'):
    if 'http' in str(a): #This time it is limited to the a tag with http
        #print(a.text) #Contents of a tag (title)
        print(a.attrs['href']) #URL

Result (command line)
