If you spot a design change (or something else) that makes the scraper unable to work for a given site - please fire an issue asap.
If you are programmer PRs with fixes are warmly welcomed and acknowledged with a virtual beer.
Open an Issue providing us the site name, as well as a recipe link from it.
You are a developer and want to code the scraper on your own:
If Schema is available on the site - you can go like this.
Otherwise, scrape the HTML - like this
Generating a new scraper class:
python generate.py <ClassName> <URL>
- ClassName: The name of the new scraper class.
- URL: The URL of an example recipe from the target site. The content will be stored in test_data to be used with the test class.
Assuming you have >=python3.7 installed, navigate to the directory where you want this project to live in and drop these lines
git clone git@github.com:hhursev/recipe-scrapers.git &&
cd recipe-scrapers &&
python3 -m venv .venv &&
source .venv/bin/activate &&
pip install -r requirements-dev.txt &&
python -m unittestIn case you want to run a single unittest for a newly developed scraper
python -m unittest tests.test_myscraper- How do I know if a website has a Recipe Schema? Run in python shell:
from recipe_scrapers import scrape_me
scraper = scrape_me('<url of a recipe from the site>', wild_mode=True)
# if no error is raised - there's schema available:
scraper.title()
scraper.instructions() # etc.If you're using this library to collect large numbers of recipes from the web, please use the software responsibly and try to avoid creating high volumes of network traffic.
Python's standard library provides a robots.txt parser that may be helpful to automatically follow common instructions specified by websites for web crawlers.
Another parser option -- particularly if you find that many web requests from urllib.robotparser are blocked -- is the robotsexclusionparser library.
All the contributors that helped improving the package. You are awesome!
