hagitt / recipe-scrapers Goto Github PK

A simple web scraping tool for recipe sites I use in a project of mine that makes sense to live as a separate package. No Python 2 support.

pip install git+git://github.com/hhursev/recipe-scrapers.git

then:

from recipe_scrapers import scrape_me

# give the url as a string, it can be url from any site listed below
scrape_me = scrape_me('http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Apple-Cake-Iv/Detail.aspx')

scrape_me.title()
scrape_me.total_time()
scrape_me.ingredients()
scrape_me.instructions()
scrape_me.links()

Note: scrape_me.links() returns a dictionary object containing all of the tag attributes. The attribute names are the dictionary keys.

Part of the reason I want this open sourced is because if a site makes a design change, the scraper for it should be modified.

If you spot a design change (or something else) that makes the scrapers unable to work for the given site - please fire an issue asap.

If you are programmer PRs with fixes are warmly welcomed and acknowledged with a virtual beer :beer:.

• If you are a developer and want to code the scraper on your own, this is a wonderful example of how to do it.
