This is a simple Python3 script to scrape Fandom site and get much information on various items available in the game.

List of defined numeric IDs is from here with minor editing and corrections (BEWARE: I might have goofed badly!).

Installation under Linux is straightforward (I don't use Windows for programming):

# clone reository
git clone <repository>
#enter project root directory
cd ScrapeFandom/
# create basic Vitual ENVironment 
python3 -m venv venv
# install required non-standard-lib packages
# i.e.: lxml and requests
venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
# run the script
venv/bin/python ParseFandom.py 

After execution (it takes a bit of time) you should have several new files: the most important are:

• Fandom.py: the resulting script containing the whole scraped information in list format and a couple of helper dicts:

  • all_by_id[int]: access info by ID value
  • all_by_name[int]: access info by in-game name

• resources/images/*: collection of images pertaining to objects.

  Names are computed from in-game item name.

  Note: These are images and not the icons used in-game as I didn't find a reliable way to getthem fromFandom. I am thinking about scraping them from Fextralife but that's for another day.

In the code there are several workarounds needed to account for differences in Wiki pages edited over a quite sizable time span. I wouldn't be surprised if "further enhancements" will break the scraping code; please notify me if you find inconsistencies.

Suggestions and comments (and patches) are always welcome.

Enjoy!
