I am trying to create a script that allows me to send a GET request to every link in a text file at once. I am sure I could do this with threading but maybe you guys have a better suggestion. So far all it does is read each line one by one and send the request one by one.
import urllib2
def send(first,last):
with open("urls.txt", 'r') as urls:
for url in urls:
url = url.rstrip("\n")
print url
urllib2.urlopen(url+"?f_name="+first+"&last_name="+last)
if __name__ == "__main__":
first = raw_input("First Name: ")
last = raw_input("Last Name: ")
flood(first, last)
Check out the requests's async. It's got its own package now, but you could use that. It runs of gevent and greenlet. https://github.com/kennethreitz/grequests
Never mind, threading is the best way to go, I figured it out.

i will use a while loop for a refresh for a method.
def usagePerUserApi():
while True:
url = ....
resp = requests.get(url, headers=headers, verify=False)
data = json.loads(resp.content)
code = resp.status_code
Verbindungscheck.ausgabeVerbindungsCode(code)
head =.....
table = []
for item in (data['data']):
if item['un'] == tecNo:
table.append([
item['fud'],
item['un'],
str(item['lsn']),
str(item['fns']),
str(item['musage'])+"%",
str(item['hu']),
str(item['mu']),
str(item['hb']),
str(item['mb'])
])
print(tabulate(table,headers=head, tablefmt="github"))
time.sleep(300)
If I leave time.sleep like this, it will be displayed as an error. If I put it under the while loop, It will be updated constantly and does not wait 5 minutes.
I don't know where the mistake is. I hope you can help me.
You need to import the python time library
If you place
import time
at the top of your file it should work
Have you imported the time library? If not, then add
import time
to the top of your code, and it should work.
Also bear in mind that there may be problems with output buffering, where the program won't wait as expected, and so you'll need to turn it off, as shown by this answer.
I'm pretty new.
I wrote this python script to make an API call from blockr.io to check the balance of multiple bitcoin addresses.
The contents of btcaddy.txt are bitcoin addresses seperated by commas. For this example, let it parse this.
import urllib2
import json
btcaddy = open("btcaddy.txt","r")
urlRequest = urllib2.Request("http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/address/info/" + btcaddy.read())
data = urllib2.urlopen(urlRequest).read()
json_data = json.loads(data)
balance = float(json_data['data''address'])
print balance
raw_input()
However, it gives me an error. What am I doing wrong? For now, how do I get it to print the balance of the addresses?
You've done multiple things wrong in your code. Here's my fix. I recommend a for loop.
import json
import urllib
addresses = open("btcaddy.txt", "r").read()
base_url = "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/address/info/"
request = urllib.urlopen(base_url+addresses)
result = json.loads(request.read())['data']
for balance in result:
print balance['address'], ":" , balance['balance'], "BTC"
You don't need an input at the end, too.
Your question is clear, but your tries not.
You said, you have a file, with at least, more than registry. So you need to retrieve the lines of this file.
with open("btcaddy.txt","r") as a:
addresses = a.readlines()
Now you could iterate over registries and make a request to this uri. The urllib module is enough for this task.
import json
import urllib
base_url = "http://btc.blockr.io/api/v1/address/info/%s"
for address in addresses:
request = urllib.request.urlopen(base_url % address)
result = json.loads(request.read().decode('utf8'))
print(result)
HTTP sends bytes as response, so you should to us decode('utf8') as approach to handle with data.
My goal is to connect to Youtube API and download the URLs of specific music producers.I found the following script which I used from the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_M_wle0Iq9M. In the video the code works beautifully. But when I try it on python 2.7 it gives me KeyError:'items'.
I know KeyErrors can occur when there is an incorrect use of a dictionary or when a key doesn't exist.
I have tried going to the google developers site for youtube to make sure that 'items' exist and it does.
I am also aware that using get() may be helpful for my problem but I am not sure. Any suggestions to fixing my KeyError using the following code or any suggestions on how to improve my code to reach my main goal of downloading the URLs (I have a Youtube API)?
Here is the code:
#these modules help with HTTP request from Youtube
import urllib
import urllib2
import json
API_KEY = open("/Users/ereyes/Desktop/APIKey.rtf","r")
API_KEY = API_KEY.read()
searchTerm = raw_input('Search for a video:')
searchTerm = urllib.quote_plus(searchTerm)
url = 'https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/search?part=snippet&q='+searchTerm+'&key='+API_KEY
response = urllib.urlopen(url)
videos = json.load(response)
videoMetadata = [] #declaring our list
for video in videos['items']: #"for loop" cycle through json response and searches in items
if video['id']['kind'] == 'youtube#video': #makes sure that item we are looking at is only videos
videoMetadata.append(video['snippet']['title']+ # getting title of video and putting into list
"\nhttp://youtube.com/watch?v="+video['id']['videoId'])
videoMetadata.sort(); # sorts our list alphaetically
print ("\nSearch Results:\n") #print out search results
for metadata in videoMetadata:
print (metadata)+"\n"
raw_input('Press Enter to Exit')
The problem is most likely a combination of using an RTF file instead of a plain text file for the API key and you seem to be confused whether to use urllib or urllib2 since you imported both.
Personally, I would recommend requests, but I think you need to read() the contents of the request to get a string
response = urllib.urlopen(url).read()
You can check that by printing the response variable
I am trying to crawl wordreference, but I am not succeding.
The first problem I have encountered is, that a big part is loaded via JavaScript, but that shouldn't be much problem because I can see what I need in the source code.
So, for example, I want to extract for a given word, the first two meanings, so in this url: http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=crane I need to extract grulla and grúa.
This is my code:
import lxml.html as lh
import urllib2
url = 'http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=crane'
doc = lh.parse((urllib2.urlopen(url)))
trans = doc.xpath('//td[#class="ToWrd"]/text()')
for i in trans:
print i
The result is that I get an empty list.
I have tried to crawl it with scrapy too, no success. I am not sure what is going on, the only way I have been able to crawl it is using curl, but that is sloopy, I want to do it in an elegant way, with Python.
Thank you very much
It looks like you need a User-Agent header to be sent, see Changing user agent on urllib2.urlopen.
Also, just switching to requests would do the trick (it automatically sends the python-requests/version User Agent by default):
import lxml.html as lh
import requests
url = 'http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=crane'
response = requests.get("http://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=crane")
doc = lh.fromstring(response.content)
trans = doc.xpath('//td[#class="ToWrd"]/text()')
for i in trans:
print(i)
Prints:
grulla
grúa
plataforma
...
grulla blanca
grulla trompetera
Looking for a python script that would simply connect to a web page (maybe some querystring parameters).
I am going to run this script as a batch job in unix.
urllib2 will do what you want and it's pretty simple to use.
import urllib
import urllib2
params = {'param1': 'value1'}
req = urllib2.Request("http://someurl", urllib.urlencode(params))
res = urllib2.urlopen(req)
data = res.read()
It's also nice because it's easy to modify the above code to do all sorts of other things like POST requests, Basic Authentication, etc.
Try this:
aResp = urllib2.urlopen("http://google.com/");
print aResp.read();
If you need your script to actually function as a user of the site (clicking links, etc.) then you're probably looking for the python mechanize library.
Python Mechanize
A simple wget called from a shell script might suffice.
in python 2.7:
import urllib2
params = "key=val&key2=val2" #make sure that it's in GET request format
url = "http://www.example.com"
html = urllib2.urlopen(url+"?"+params).read()
print html
more info at https://docs.python.org/2.7/library/urllib2.html
in python 3.6:
from urllib.request import urlopen
params = "key=val&key2=val2" #make sure that it's in GET request format
url = "http://www.example.com"
html = urlopen(url+"?"+params).read()
print(html)
more info at https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/urllib.request.html
to encode params into GET format:
def myEncode(dictionary):
result = ""
for k in dictionary: #k is the key
result += k+"="+dictionary[k]+"&"
return result[:-1] #all but that last `&`
I'm pretty sure this should work in either python2 or python3...
What are you trying to do? If you're just trying to fetch a web page, cURL is a pre-existing (and very common) tool that does exactly that.
Basic usage is very simple:
curl www.example.com
You might want to simply use httplib from the standard library.
myConnection = httplib.HTTPConnection('http://www.example.com')
you can find the official reference here: http://docs.python.org/library/httplib.html
