# 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("http://www.commitstrip.com/?random=1")
#
# # Find something on the page using css selectors
root = lxml.html.fromstring(html)
frame = root.cssselect("div.entry-content")[0]
url = frame.cssselect('img')[0].get('src')
print url
ret = scraperwiki.sql.select("* from data where 'url'='"+url+"'")
print str(ret.len)
#
# # Write out to the sqlite database using scraperwiki library
scraperwiki.sqlite.save(unique_keys=['url'], data={"url": url})
#
# # 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".
