requests.get in python giving connection timeout error

问题

Language Ver: Python 3.6.3
IDE Ver: PyCharm 2017.2.3

I was trying to parse a weather website to print weather for a place. As I am learning Python, previously I used urllib.request.urlopen(url).read() and it worked. Now, I am modifying the code to BeautifulSoup4 and requests module. Below is my code:

from bs4 import *
import requests
url = "https://www.accuweather.com/en/in/dhenkanal/189844/weather-forecast/189844"
data = requests.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(data.text, "html.parser")
print(soup.find('div', {'class': 'info'}))

But each time I try to run the code it gives me following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

What is this error and how to correct it? And why it worked in urllib, but not in requests?

回答1:

I used your code straight up and I got the same error then I followed how the requests are sent in browser. Some servers don't respond if expected headers are not sent with request that they use as part of backend processing. Turns out the server was looking for a header called user-agent usually used to determine what client the request is from. Now, amended code below which works!

from bs4 import *
import requests
url = "https://www.accuweather.com/en/in/dhenkanal/189844/weather-forecast/189844"

headers = {'user-agent':'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/62.0.3202.94 Safari/537.36'}

data = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
soup = BeautifulSoup(data.text, "html.parser")

Now you can play with your soup! You can in fact pass more headers like accept, dnt, pragma, accept-language, cache-control etc. Explanation of these http headers are for another question, another time. Hope it helps :)

回答2:

Try increasing the timeout parameter of your requests.get method :

requests.get(url, headers=headers, timeout=5)

But if your script is being blocked by the server to prevent scrapping attempts . If this is the case you can try faking a web browser by setting appropriate headers .

{"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 GTB7.1 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)", "Referer": "http://example.com"}

your final code

import requests
url = "https://www.accuweather.com/en/in/dhenkanal/189844/weather-forecast/189844"
headers = {"User-Agent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 GTB7.1 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)", "Referer": "http://example.com"}
data = requests.get(url,headers=headers,timeout=5)
