I've had problems accessing www.bizi.si or more specifically
http://www.bizi.si/BALMAR-D-O-O/ for instance. If you look at it without registering you won't see any financial data. But if you use the free registration, I used username: Lukec, password: lukec12345, you can see some of the financial data. I've used this next code:
import urllib.parse
import urllib.request
import re
import csv
username = 'Lukec'
password = 'lukec12345'
url = 'http://www.bizi.si/BALMAR-D-O-O/'
values = {'username':username, 'password':password}
data = urllib.parse.urlencode(values)
data = data.encode('utf-8')
req = urllib.request.Request(url,data,values)
resp = urllib.request.urlopen(req,data)
respData = resp.read()
paragraphs = re.findall('<tbody>(.*?)</tbody>',str(respData))
And my len(paragraphs) is zero. I would really be grateful if anyone of you would be able to tell me how to access the page correctly. I know that the length being zero isnt the best indicator, but also the len(respData) if I use values as stated in my code or if I take it out of my code is the same, so I know I have not accessed the page through username, password.
Thank you for you're help in advance and have a nice day.
There are two issues here:
You are not using POST, but GET for the request.
There is no <tbody> element in the HTML produced; any such tags have been automatically added by your browser, do not rely on them being there.
To create a POST request, use:
req = urllib.request.Request(url, data, method='POST')
resp = urllib.request.urlopen(req)
Note that I removed the values argument (those are not headers, the third positional argument to Request() and you don't pass in a data argument when using a Request object.
The resulting HTML returned does not necessarily include the same data that is sent to a browser; you probably need to maintain a session here, return the cookies that the site sets.
It is far easier to do this with better tools such as the requests library and BeautifulSoup (the latter lets you parse HTML without having to resort to regular expressions), which can be combined with the robobrowser project to help you fill and submit forms on websites.
Note however that the page forms and state are managed by ASP.NET JavaScript code and are not easily reverse-engineered even by robobrowser. When you log in with a browser (which has run the JavaScript code for you), the POST looks like this:
{'__EVENTTARGET': ['ctl00$ctl00$loginBoxPopup$loginBox1$ButtonLogin'],
'__VSTATE':

That's a lot more information than a simple username / password combination.
See post request using python to asp.net page for approaches on how to handle such pages instead.

I'm trying to write some code that downloads content from Moodle website.
the first thing was trying and logging in, but from what I've tried so far, it seems as if I'm not actually being redirected to the page after log in (with the courses data etc...). here's that I've tried
user = 'my_username'
pas = 'my_password'
payload = {'username':user, 'password':pas}
login_site = "https://moodle2.cs.huji.ac.il/nu20/login/index.php?" # actual login webpage
data_site = "https://moodle2.cs.huji.ac.il/nu20" # should be the inner webpage with the courses etc...
with requests.Session() as session:
post = session.post(login_site, data=payload)
r = session.get(data_site)
content = r.text
print(content) # doesn't actually contain the HTML of the main courses page (seems to me its the login page)
any idea why might that happen? would appreciate your help ;)
It is difficult to help without knowing more about the specific site you are trying to log into.
One thing that's worth a try is changing
session.post(login_site, data=payload)
to
session.post(login_site, json=payload)
When the data parameter is used, the content-type header is not set to "application/json". Some sites will reject the POST based on this.
I've also run into sites which have protections against logins from scripts. They may require an additional token to be sent in the POST.
If all else fails, you could consider using selenium. Selenium allows you to control a browser instance programmatically You can simply load the page and send text input to the username and password fields on the login page. This would also get you access to any content which is rendered client side via javascript. However, this may be overkill depending on your use case.
I have a task to crawl all Pulitzer Winner, and I found this page has all I want: https://www.pulitzer.org/prize-winners-by-year/2018.
But I got the following problems,
Problem 1: How to crawl a dynamic page? I use python/urllib2.urlopen, to get the page's content, but this dynamic page doesn't return the real content from this.
Problem 2: I then found an API URL from devtool: https://www.pulitzer.org/cache/api/1/winners/year/166/raw.json. But when I sent a GET request from urllib2.urlopen, I always get null. How does it happen? Or how can I handle with it?
If this is too naive for you, please name some words so that I can learn it from Google.
Thanks in advance!
One way to handle is to create a session using requests module. This way, it passes necessary session details required for next api call, you also have to pass one more parameter Referer to the header. This differentiates which year you are looking for in the api call.
import requests
s = requests.session()
url = "https://www.pulitzer.org/prize-winners-by-year/2017"
resp1 = s.get(url)
headers = {'Referer': 'https://www.pulitzer.org/prize-winners-by-year/2017'}
api = "https://www.pulitzer.org/cache/api/1/winners/year/166/raw.json"
data = s.get(api,headers=headers)
now you can extract the data from the response in data.
I'm trying to scrape multiple financial websites (Wells Fargo, etc.) to pull my transaction history for data analysis purposes. I can do the scraping part once I get to the page I need; the problem I'm having is getting there. I don't know how to pass my username and password and then navigate from there. I would like to do this without actually opening a browser.
I found Michael Foord's article "HOWTO Fetch Internet Resources Using The urllib Package" and tried to adapt one of the examples to meet my needs but can't get it to work (I've tried adapting to several other search results as well). Here's my code:
import bs4
import urllib.request
import urllib.parse
##Navigate to the website.
url = 'https://www.wellsfargo.com/'
values = {'j_username':'USERNAME', 'j_password':'PASSWORD'}
data = urllib.parse.urlencode(values)
data = data.encode('ascii')
req = urllib.request.Request(url, data)
with urllib.request.urlopen(req) as response:
the_page = response.read()
soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(the_page,"html.parser")
The 'j_username' and 'j_password' both come from inspecting the text boxes on the login page.
I just don't think I'm pointing to the right place or passing my credentials correctly. The URL I'm using is just the login page so is it actually logging me in? When I print the URL from response it returns https://wellsfargo.com/. If I'm ever able to successfully login, it just takes me to a summary page of my accounts. I would then need to follow another link to my checking, savings, etc.
I really appreciate any help you can offer.
I came across a situation when I used Python Requests or urllib2 to open urls. I got 404 'page not found' responses. For example, url = 'https://www.facebook.com/mojombo'. However, I can copy and paste those urls in browser and visit them. Why does this happen?
I need to get some content from those pages' html source code. Since I can't open those urls using Requests or urllib2, I can't use BeautifulSoup to extract element from html source code. Is there a way to get those page's source code and extract content form it utilizing Python?
Although this is a general question, I still need some working code to solve it. Thanks!
It looks like your browser is using cookies to log you in. Try opening that url in a private or incognito tab, and you'll probably not be able to access it.
However, if you are using Requests, you can pass the appropriate login information as a dictionary of values. You'll need to check the form information to see what the fields are, but Requests can handle that as well.
The normal format would be:
payload = {
'username': 'your username',
'password': 'your password'
}
p = requests.post(myurl, data=payload)
with more or less fields added as needed.
I decided to try to make an automated login script for Minecraft. However, the new authentication API is stumping me. I can't find any mentions of the new functionality of the API on here. This is my code as it stands:
import requests
import json
data = json.dumps({"agent":{"name":"Minecraft","version":1},"username":"abcdef","password":"abcdef","clientToken":""})
headers = {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}
r = requests.post('https://authserver.mojang.com', data=data, headers=headers)
print (r.text)
Unfortunately, this returns:
{"error":"Method Not Allowed","errorMessage":"The method specified in the request is not allowed for the resource identified by the request URI"}
According to this resource on request format, this error means that I didn't correctly send a post request. However, I clearly declared requests.post(), so my first question is how am I incorrect, and what is the correct way to go about this?
My second question is, since I'm relatively new to Python and JSON, how would I replace the username and password fields with my own data, inside a variable?
You haven't specified an endpoint in your POST request, for example:
https://authserver.mojang.com/authenticate
The root of the website probably does not accept POST requests
