John, that was a really helpful (top down) overview which I found very helpful. As a visual learner, I almost need a decision tree diagram to take me down the most appropriate route... thereby taking me to the right set of tools/ routines to use. It’s also helpful to have a video in the 7- 10 minute time range, to focus in on the particular topic in hand. 10 out of 10 from me! 👍
I think we need a video where you talk about all the challenges that will face us when scraping like blocking ip or problems caused by sending too many requests.
Thanks for the great content, your channel is an excellent learning resource. May I ask for a starting suggestion for a project that involves authentication and downloading CSV and Excel files.
Thanks John, I have 2 questions...First, how do you download the HTLM with requests? I tried looking it up and didn't find the solution. Second, looking at the source, what are we suppose to be seeing? I have dont that but not sure what I am looking for.Thanks
it helped mate. what lib do you recommend for parsing lxml/html? and ofcourse for async request.get (only) and request.post(rarely). minimal libs just to get the work done. in one of your vids u talked about selectolax, and request-html in this one. I only need those two functionalities I mentioned above(parsing, requests). much appreciate it.🙏🏼
@@JohnWatsonRooney Oh okay, so we have to visit the URL to get the content of the IFrame, sounds easy enough. Really appreciate the quick reply! I like your videos, they're very informative.
Hey John, Just recently sub'd... These are great tips! How about a separate vid for each one? Looking over your shoulder, The 1st one: What will You be looking for? Keeping an eye out for? Listening to your train of thought - while you're going through the motion/ process would be awesome! Hope you consider this request.
Wonderful videos you have. How can I select the columns I want to scrape. Maybe the the information I need is in column 1,2 and 4. How do I don that? Thank you
Hey man, I have an e commerce site I'm trying to scrape and I found that one section of the page I'm trying to get calls an API post and it's paginated. With that said, will it be better to just go straight and call the data through the API on that part instead of scraping it off the page? Follow up, should I still use scrapy or in combination of bs4? One to load and scrape the page and the other one just for the post API call.
Valuable advice from 50,000 ft, not the usual 500 ft. Don't just start coding. Stop, think, design, look harder. Do you really understand the specific details of the problem, or are you guessing?
Hi John,can you please help to scrape the reviews from slicksdeals site for all the sublinks of a product..I have tried bit failed to do it... please help me
nice video. i use bs4 because a lot of your videos use bs4 and i try to adapt your examples to my projects. Could you do future video with more complex selectors please :) because i have a lot problem to adapt with something like that lol .
By far the best channel on UA-cam for web scraping ❤️

Yes good idea I’ve been thinking doing about a video like that
Thank you I just completed my first scrapy project today
Great 👍
Your channel is too good for us scrapers!!!
When building my scraper, I love to do it on a jupyter-notebook first so that I could separate the request and parse part of the program.
yes thats a great way too - i personally never got into notebooks but i certainly see the appeal.

Gold! Great channel.
Thanks Steve!
Wonderful video. Do you have any on decision tree ?
We urgently need video about scraping from TripAdvisor using Selenium please 😀
How would you recommend dealing with IFrames? Any tips to extract data from those easily?
From previous experience you need to find the actual url that the is and use that, you can usually find it in the source
