Scrape all the Cottage Inn Pizza locations¶
Let’s say that you want to make a list of all the Cottage Inn Pizza locations. When you go to their website, it turns out that there are a lot of locations.
If only you could write a little Python to easily collect them all…
It turns out that you can! Run the code below to see what it collects.
This code probably seems a bit complicated. In this ebook, we will break down web scraping into a few common “plans”. This example is made up of three plans. Click on each of them to learn more.
Plan 1: Get a soup from a URL# Load libraries for web scraping from bs4 import BeautifulSoup import requests # Get a soup from a URL url = 'https://pizzatown.com/pick-a-location/' r = requests.get(url) soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html.parser')
Plan 3: Get info from all tags of a certain type
# Get all tags of a certain type from the soup
tags = soup.find_all('h3')
# Collect info from the tags
collect_info = []
for tag in tags:
# Get info from tag
info = tag.text
collect_info.append(info)
Plan 5: Print the info# Print the info print(collect_info)
