Scraper in Python gives “Access Denied”

Question

I\'m trying to code a scraper in Python to get some info from a page. Like the title of the offers that appear on this page:
https://www.justdial.com/Panipat/Saree-Retai

Answer 1

As was mentioned in comments, you need to specify allowable user-agent and pass it as headers:

def extract_source(url):
    headers = {'User-Agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:50.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0'}
    source=requests.get(url, headers=headers).text
    return source

Answer 2

def extract_source(url):
    headers = {"User-Agent":"Mozilla/5.0"}
    source=requests.get(url, headers=headers).text
    return source

out:

<title>Saree Retailers in Panipat - Best Deals online - Justdial</title>

Add User-Agent to your request, some site do not response to the request which dnose not has User-Agent

Answer 3

Try this:

import bs4
import requests

def extract_source(url):
     agent = {"User-Agent":"Mozilla/5.0"}
     source=requests.get(url, headers=agent).text
     return source

def extract_data(source):
     soup=bs4.BeautifulSoup(source, 'lxml')
     names=soup.findAll('title')
     for i in names:
     print i

extract_data(extract_source('https://www.justdial.com/Panipat/Saree-Retailers/nct-10420585'))

I added 'lxml' to potentially avoid parse error.
