For context I am trying to scrape books myself that I can’t seem to find elsewhere so I can use and post them for others.
The scraper tutorial
Hackernoon tutorial by Ethan Jarell
I initially tried to follow this but I kept having a “couldn’t find module” error. Since I have never touched python prior to this, I am unaware how to fix this and the help links are not exactly helpful. If there’s someone who could guide me through this tutorial that would be great.
Selenium
I don’t really get what this is but I think its some sort of python pack and it tells me to download using the pip command but that doesn’t seem to work (syntax error). I don’t know how to manually add it in because, again, I have little idea of what I’m doing.
Scrapy
This one seemed like it’d be an out-of-box deal but not only does it need the pip command to download but it has like 5 other dependencies it needs to function which complicates it more for me.
I am not criticizing these wares, I am just asking for help and if someone could help with the simplification of it all or maybe even point me to an easier method that would be amazing!
Updates
py -m
followed by the pip requestGot the Ethan Jarrell tutorial to work and managed to add in selenium, which made me realize that selenium isn’t really helpful with the project. rip xP
Spent a bunch of time trying to workshop the basic scraper to work with dynamic sites, unsuccessful
Online self-help doesn’t go in as much as I would like, probably due to the legal grey area
I’m not currently on Discord, could you upload the code to pastebin or something similar?
