# This is a template for a Python scraper on morph.io (https://morph.io)
# including some code snippets below that you should find helpful
import scraperwiki
import lxml.html
#
# # Read in a page
html = scraperwiki.scrape("https://uk.soccerway.com/teams/england/chelsea-football-club/661/")#
#create an empty dictionary variable to hold our data later
record = {}
# # Find something on the page using css selectors
root = lxml.html.fromstring(html)
names = root.cssselect("td div a")
for name in names:
#print name.text
print name.attrib['href']
record['link'] = name.attrib['href']
print record
scraperwiki.sqlite.save(unique_keys=['link'], data=record)
#
# # Write out to the sqlite database using scraperwiki library
# scraperwiki.sqlite.save(unique_keys=['name'], data={"name": "susan", "occupation": "software developer"})
#
# # An arbitrary query against the database
# scraperwiki.sql.select("* from data where 'name'='peter'")
# You don't have to do things with the ScraperWiki and lxml libraries.
# You can use whatever libraries you want: https://morph.io/documentation/python
# All that matters is that your final data is written to an SQLite database
# called "data.sqlite" in the current working directory which has at least a table
# called "data".
