kandi X-RAY | Zillow Summary

Zillow is a Python library typically used in Automation, Scraper, Selenium applications. Zillow has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has low support. However Zillow build file is not available. You can download it from GitHub.

Basic tool for scraping current home listings from Zillow, written in Python using Selenium. The code takes as input search terms that would normally be entered on the Zillow home page. It creates 11 variables on each home listing from the data, saves them to a dataframe, and then writes the df to a CSV file that gets saved to your working directory. Using zip codes as search terms seems to yield the best results, the scraper works at a rate of about 75 zip codes per hour (compared to the Zillow API limit of 1000 homes per 24h). There are two files, zillow_runfile.py and zillow_functions.py. Clone this repo to your working directory, open the runfile and step through the code line-by-line. The zillow functions are sourced at the top of the runfile. This tool uses a for loop to iterate over a list of input search terms, scrape the listings of each, and append the results to a dataframe. Function zipcodes_list() allows the user to compile a large list of zip codes to use as search terms, using the package [zipcode] For example, st = zipcodes_list(['10', '11', '770']) will yield every US zip code that begins with 10, 11, or 770 as a single list. Object st could then be passed to the scraper.

You could use XPATH to find the link (a tag) and use get_attribute('href') to get the link from the tag.

headers in Zillow website - where to get it

Asked 2022-Mar-18 at 12:11

The code below extracts data from Zillow Sale.

My 1st question is where people get the headers information.

My 2nd question is how do I know when I needs headers? For some other page like Cars.com, I don't need put headers=headers and I can still get data correctly.

Thank you for your help. HHC

ANSWER

Answered 2021-Nov-14 at 03:15

You can get headers from going to the site with your browser and using the network tab of the developer tools in there, select a request and you can headers sent in requests.

Some websites don't serve bots, so to make them think you're not a bot you set the user agent header to one a browser uses, some sites may require more headers for you to pass the not a bot test. You can see all the headers being sent in developer tools, you can test different headers until your request succeeds.

I'm trying to do some work with real estate data and after failing on my own managed to borrow a code that pulled some of the data. Unfortunately I have no idea how to parse the rest, as the json formatting is very confusing to me.

QUESTION

how to programmatically get new region as Map moves so I can refresh annotations? (swiftui)

Asked 2022-Feb-05 at 22:21

I have a map with fixed annotations, the annotations change only if I filter the results with a function

I'd like to recalculate the region as user moves the map and show the FILTERED results that match that location (get new region coordinates, then call my getListingsFiltered function)

how can I get the region coordinates when the map changes? I have seen I can use region.center for the move without zoom and regin.span for zoom in/out) but I couldn't make it work.

I've seen also that other answers change region based on change of results, but in my case it's the contrary, I want to change results based on change of map location.

When you call tag.findAll it creates a ResultSet with all three values saved. You can then access each one using the index number, as shown below.
