Fakepilot

Trustpilot scrapping Python package. Extract online business reviews and integrate it on your code. It is based on BeautifulSoup.

Features

• Extract the information of a company from a Trustpilot page.
• Obtain its reviews with a fine-grained detail.
• The output data is structured in a simple dictionary.

IMPORTANT: fakepilot now doesn't fetch the web pages from Trustpilot. This must be done by the user of the package.

Usage

The main function is extract_info. You can pass a file containing a Trustpilot HTML page of a company and it returns information, like number of reviews, phone number or address. Also, you can specify if you want some of the company's reviews to be extracted.

fp.extract_info("tests/data/burgerking.no.html")
fp.extract_info("tests/data/burgerking.no.html", with_reviews=True, 2)
