Scraping.py is a Python script for web scraping that uses the BeautifulSoup library to extract data from DBA (Den Blå Avis).
Before using scraping.py, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed:
-
Python: You'll need Python 3.x installed on your system. You can download it from python.org.
-
BeautifulSoup: Install BeautifulSoup with pip using the following command:
pip install beautifulsoup4
Clone this repository or download the "scraping.py" script to your local machine.
Open the script in a text editor or integrated development environment (IDE) of your choice.
Customize the script for your specific scraping needs:
Set the URL of the website you want to scrape by replacing "your_DBA_item" with the target website's URL (e.g. "https://www.dba.dk/zigbee-kontakt-saelger-4-sl/id-1104546914/".
Save the script with your changes. Run the script using the following command:
python scraping.py
The script will execute and begin scraping data from DBA.dk (remember to log in and follow the instructions in the terminal).
The scraped data will be saved to a text file ("conversation.txt") in the same directory as the script.
