A Python script that uses bold database links from an Excel file and looks up if there's a Wikipedia description available. Currently it's not exactly bullet proof, so it needs special requirments for it to actually work.
Using libraries: Openpyxl and beautifulsoup4
Requirments:
- The file name has to be in the same directory as the python script.
- The name of the file has to be TAXDB_WebCrawling.xlsx
- It has to be an Excel file (.xlsx)
- The Program starts reading from Row 2 and reads columns B, C and D.
- Column B (Or column 2) needs to contain the Taxon ranks.
- Column C (Or column 3) needs to contain the Taxon names.
- Column D (Or column 4) needs to contain the links to the Bold Database.
An Example of how it should look liks is provided in the Excel file on this repo.
