Question 10
Hm I get too many double quotes in the output. What is going on?
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import csv
import io
url = 'https://vkatsikaros.github.io/dataharvest24-www.github.io/'
response = requests.get(url)
if response.status_code == 200:
soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, 'html.parser')
div = soup.find('div', id='_idItemTableForP')
if div is not None:
table = div.find('table')
if table is not None:
headers = []
thead = table.find('thead')
if thead is not None:
for th in thead.find_all('th'):
headers.append(th.text.strip())
else:
print("Thead not found in the table.")
rows = []
tbody = table.find('tbody')
if tbody is not None:
for tr in tbody.find_all('tr'):
row_data = []
for td in tr.find_all('td'):
# Find the <a> tag within the <td>
a_tag = td.find('a')
if a_tag is not None:
url = a_tag.get('href', None) # Use get to avoid KeyError
text = a_tag.text.strip()
row_data.append(f"{url}, {text}")
else:
row_data.append(td.text.strip())
rows.append(row_data)
else:
print("Tbody not found in the table.")
output = io.StringIO()
csv_writer = csv.writer(output)
if headers:
csv_writer.writerow(headers)
if rows:
for row in rows:
csv_writer.writerow(row)
csv_content = output.getvalue()
print(csv_content)
else:
print("Table not found within the div. Check the structure.")
else:
print("Div with id '_idItemTableForP' not found. Check the id.")
else:
print('Failed to retrieve the webpage. Status code:', response.status_code)
The diff:
if a_tag is not None:
url = a_tag.get('href', None) # Use get to avoid KeyError
text = a_tag.text.strip()
- row_data.append(f'"{url}", "{text}"')
+ row_data.append(f"{url}, {text}")
else:
- row_data.append(f'"{td.text.strip()}"')
+ row_data.append(td.text.strip())
rows.append(row_data)
else:
print("Tbody not found in the table.")
Output
Thead not found in the table.

...
Better! But if you notice very closely, the "/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3008&name=Brick%201%20x%208&category=%5BBrick%5D, Brick 1 x 8"
is a single value enclosed in double quotes. This is not 2 values separated by a comma.
