Trying to webscrape some commodities news using Python.

The intention for it is to;
- scrape news from a particular website
- save the urls

I have half a code working using selenium.
having trouble integrating it with bs4.

let me know if this can be done as i think its quite simple but my knowledge in python ain't the best

< thread is active and in need until i say i no longer need it >

I'm familiar with beautifulsoup.

Let me know what exactly you mean by "scrape news" in a PM (the text only?) and we can discuss this :)

I can't believe you paid 3k fg for a bs4 tutorial, bs4 is slow and impractical...

such tutorial is worth like 50fg at most... the documentation is also free to look up and is incredibly basic..


If you need a professional mentor in C, C#, C++, Python, Javascript (Jquery, Node.js, etc), Java, Linux(os), etc => i can provide you with free information.

had i only seen this earlier i'd make it for free..
it'd take me less than 5 minutes...

You forget the work that lies behind being able to do it in 5 minutes :-)
That and some people value their time a lot more than you do yours obviously.

And you honestly think he didn't delay it on purpose :rofl:
that's how all devs work to make more money.


But since you're happy with his work, stick with it.

You're funny. The part that takes the longest when coding is always understanding what needs to be done, and not actually writing the code.
