Python Scrape With Normal Chrome or IE Browser (Not Chromedriver)

只谈情不闲聊 提交于 2021-02-19 16:33:39
问题 I'm using Selenium and Chromdriver which will load the site just fine including the Javascript loaded data. My problem is a normal Chrome browser will update over time when this data changes and the Chromedriver holds the first static data it was sent. I haven't had any better luck with PhantomJS or firefox as a webdriver. So is there anyway to use a normal Chrome browser? Or even IE? I know in theory I could have it load a Chrome browser and watch the network traffic for the data I'm looking

Wikipedia revision history using pywikibot

会有一股神秘感。 提交于 2021-02-19 11:58:05
问题 I want to collect all the revisions history data at once. Pywikibot page.revisions() does not have the parameter to fetch number of bytes changed. It gives me all the data that I need except the number of bytes changed. How do I get the number of bytes changed? for example: for the article Main Page the revision history is here: history screenshot My current code: import pywikibot site = pywikibot.Site("en", "wikipedia") page = pywikibot.Page(site, "Main_Page") revs = page.revisions() Showing
