I have a list of movies that I want to scrap the genres from Google. I've built this code:
list=['Psychological thriller','Mystery','Crime film','Neo-noir','Drama','Crime Thriller','Indie film']
gen2 = {}
for i in list:
user_query = i +'movie genre'
URL = 'https://www.google.co.in/search?q=' + user_query
headers = {'User-Agent':'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/102.0.5005.63 Safari/537.36'}
page = requests.get(URL, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, 'html.parser')
c = soup.find(class_='EDblX DAVP1')
print(c)
if c != None:
genres = c.findAll('a')
gen2[i]= genres
But it returns an empty dict, so I checked one by one and it worked, for example:
user_query = 'Se7en movie genre'
URL = "https://www.google.co.in/search?q=" + user_query
headers = {'User-Agent':'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/102.0.5005.63 Safari/537.36'}
page = requests.get(URL, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(page.content, 'html.parser')
v = soup.find(class_='KKHQ8c')
h = []
genres = v.findAll('a')
for genre in genres:
h.append(genre.get_text())
So o find out that in the for loop the variable c is returning None. I can't figure out why! It only return None inside the loop.
