Scrappy

Scrappy is a simple Python script for my personal use that aggregates other Python scripts and can run them one by one.

The initial aim is to prepare one common environment under many different web scraping scripts.

Installation

Docker

docker compose up

Python environment

pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt -r tools/requirements.txt -r scripts/requirements.txt

Usage

python scrappy.py [SCRIPT_NAME]...

Example usage

Run all scripts:

python scrappy.py

Run single script:

python scrappy.py Script1

Run multiple selected scripts:

python scrappy.py Script1 Script2 Script3 ...

Custom additional scripts

The scraping scripts should be placed in folder app/scripts. Each script must be a class that extends the base class ScrapMe and implement scrap method.

# app/ScrapMe/MyScrapScriptClass.py

from tools.ScrapMe import ScrapMe

class MyScrapScriptClass(ScrapMe):

    def scrap(self) -> None:
        print('scraping time...')

The base class ScrapMe uses the BeautifulSoup library and contains a _loadPage method with which you can download the content of a web page. _loadPage method returns a BeautifulSoup object.

In app/scripts directory you can find three examples of usage:

  • app/scripts/Sample1.py - just "Hello world"
  • app/scripts/Sample2.py - this will throw an exception
  • app/scripts/FakePythonJobs.py - this will scrap Fake Pyhon Jobs site
