Beautifulsoup Scraping

Overview

BeautifulSoup parses raw HTML and XML pages, providing intuitive DOM tree search systems.

When to Use This Skill

Use to parse data out of static web pages or crawled page sources.

Quick Start (with runnable code examples)

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests

r = requests.get("https://example.com")
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, "html.parser")

# Find the primary heading element
heading = soup.find("h1").text
print("Heading Text:", heading)

Advanced Usage

Search elements using regex patterns, navigate sibling tag nodes, extract attributes, and clean HTML bodies.
