Website Scraping with Python starts by introducing and installing the scraping tools and explaining the features of the full application that readers will build throughout the book. You'll see how to use BeautifulSoup4 and Scrapy individually or together to achieve the desired results. Because many sites use JavaScript, you'll also employ Selenium with a browser emulator to render these sites and make them ready for scraping.
By the end of this book, you'll have a complete scraping application to use and rewrite to suit your needs. As a bonus, the authorshows you options of how to deploy your spiders into the Cloud to leverage your computer from long-running scraping tasks.
What You'll Learn
Install and implement scraping tools individually and together
Run spiders to crawl websites for data from the cloud
Work with emulators and drivers to extract data from scripted sites
