Declarative web parsers
Project description
Soupstars :stew: :star: :boom:
Soupstars makes it easier than ever to build web parsers in Python.
Install it with pip.
pip install soupstars
Let's go!
Quickstart
You need two objects to get started.
>>> from soupstars import Parser, serialize
We'll build a parser to extract data from a github page.
>>> class GithubParser(Parser):
... "Parse data from a github page"
...
... @serialize
... def title(self):
... return str(self.h1.text.strip())
Now all we need is a github web page to parse.
>>> parser = GithubParser("https://github.com/tjwaterman99/soupstars")
Let's see what we've got!
>>> parser.to_dict()
{'title': 'tjwaterman99/soupstars'}
You're now ready to start building your own web parsers with soupstars
. Nice job. :beers:
