QUESTION
When I am scraping a table from a website, it is missing the bottom 5 rows of data and I do not know how to pull them. I am using a combination of BeautifulSoup and Selenium. I thought that they were not loading, so I tried scrolling to the bottom with Selenium, but that still did not work.
Code trials:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-07 at 21:36Using only Selenium to pull all the rows from the table within the website you need to induce WebDriverWait for the visibility_of_element_located() and using DataFrame from Pandas you can use the following Locator Strategy:
Using CSS_SELECTOR:
QUESTION

Thanks in Advance:
I have run this code on other data I have scraped FBREF, so I am unsure why it's happening now. The only difference is the way I scraped it.
The first time I scraped it:
url_link = 'https://fbref.com/en/comps/Big5/gca/players/Big-5-European-Leagues-Stats'
The second time I scraped it:
url = 'https://fbref.com/en/comps/22/stats/Major-League-Soccer-Stats'
html_content = requests.get(url).text.replace('', '')
df = pd.read_html(html_content)
I then convert the data from object to float so I can do a calculation, after I have pulled it into my dataframe:
dfstandard['90s'] = dfstandard['90s'].astype(float)
dfstandard['Gls'] = dfstandard['Gls'].astype(float)
I look and it shows they are both floats:
10 90s 743 non-null float64
11 Gls 743 non-null float64
But when I run the code that as worked previously:
dfstandard['Gls'] = dfstandard['Gls'] / dfstandard['90s']
I get the error message "TypeError: '<' not supported between instances of 'str' and 'int'"
I am fairly new to scraping, I'm stuck and don't know what to do next.
The full error message is below:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-19 at 18:12There are two Gls
columns in your dataframe. I think you converted only one "Gls"
column to float, and when you do dfstandard['Gls'] = dfstandard['Gls'] / dfstandard['90s']
, the other "Gls" column is getting considered?...
Try stripping whitespace from the column names too
QUESTION
I am scraping https://fbref.com/en/squads/12192a4c/Greuther-Furth-Stats with Beautiful Soup and Selenium which worked fine until suddenly some special chars are not displayed properly anymore. Here's a screenshot how it's displayed now:
I am using:
- Chromium (Version 96.0.4664.110 (Official Build) for Linux Mint (64-bit))
- Chromedriver for Chrome 96 from https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads
Any idea how to solve it? I already cleared cache in Chromium.
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Jan-02 at 13:32As I see on the web site and can be seen on your screenshot, the problem is not with your code, it's a bug on the targeted web page you are trying to scrape.
Selenium and Beautiful Soup can read the actual texts displayed on the targeted web pages, whey are not intended to fix Front End bugs of the targeted web pages.

QUESTION
I created a function to scrape the fbref.com website. Sometimes in this website or in others that I'm trying to scrape I receive a timeout error. I read about it and it is suggested to include a sys.sleep between the requisitions or a purrr:slowly. I tried to include inside the map but I could not. How can I include a 10 seconds gap between each requisition inside the map (It would be 7 requisitions and 6 intervals of 10 seconds). Thanks in advance and if I do not include something please inform me!

QUESTION
I am trying to get 3 tables from a particular website but only the first two are showing up. I have even tried get the data using BeautifulSoup but the third seems to be hidden somehow. Is there something I am missing?
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-27 at 15:33You could use Selenium as suggested, but I think is a bit overkill. The table is available in the static HTML, just within the comments. So you would need to pull the comments out of BeautifulSoup to get those tables.
To get all the tables:
QUESTION
I'm using the function importhtml() on my Google Sheets :
=IMPORTHTML("https://fbref.com/fr/comps/13/Statistiques-Ligue-1";"table";3)
The data are imported but some data are displayed "01.08" and the value is a date. The other values are ok if they contains big number like 1.93. How it's possible to change that and have only numbers and not displayed that value as a date ? I try to change the format of the cell but the value became a number like 44455.
This is a screen of what I have
Just with the importHTML without any cell formatting After I format the cell as brut textHow can I have the value as a number so to display 1.08 and not 01.08 ( for Google SHeets this is a date ) Thanks a lot in advance
...ANSWER
Answered 2021-Nov-17 at 11:27Just add a fourth parameter, which stands for locale.
=IMPORTHTML("https://fbref.com/fr/comps/13/Statistiques-Ligue-1";"table";3;"en_US")
This solved the problem here, since it turns the decimal points into commas, not allowing GS to interpret it as date format.
