Beautifulsoup - How to open images and download them

Question

I am looking to grab the full size product images from here

My thinking was:

• Follow the image link
• Download the picture
• Go back

Answer 1

This will get you all URL of the images:

import urllib2
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = "http://icecat.biz/p/toshiba/pscbxe-01t00een/satellite-pro-notebooks-4051528049077-Satellite+Pro+C8501GR-17732197.html"
html = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(html)

imgs = soup.findAll("div", {"class":"thumb-pic"})
for img in imgs:
        print img.a['href'].split("imgurl=")[1]

Output:

http://www.toshiba.fr/contents/fr_FR/SERIES_DESCRIPTION/images/g1_satellite-pro-c850.jpg
http://www.toshiba.fr/contents/fr_FR/SERIES_DESCRIPTION/images/g4_satellite-pro-c850.jpg
http://www.toshiba.fr/contents/fr_FR/SERIES_DESCRIPTION/images/g2_satellite-pro-c850.jpg
http://www.toshiba.fr/contents/fr_FR/SERIES_DESCRIPTION/images/g5_satellite-pro-c850.jpg
http://www.toshiba.fr/contents/fr_FR/SERIES_DESCRIPTION/images/g3_satellite-pro-c850.jpg

And this code is for downloading and saving those images:

import os
import urllib
import urllib2
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url = "http://icecat.biz/p/toshiba/pscbxe-01t00een/satellite-pro-notebooks-4051528049077-Satellite+Pro+C8501GR-17732197.html"
html = urllib2.urlopen(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(html)

imgs = soup.findAll("div", {"class":"thumb-pic"})
for img in imgs:
        imgUrl = img.a['href'].split("imgurl=")[1]
        urllib.urlretrieve(imgUrl, os.path.basename(imgUrl))
