[FIXED] How to add elements in a multi dimensional array

Issue

I am scraping details of a website and I need to create a JSON object dynamically.How can I achieve this like the example I have provided.If not JSON then how can I make a multi-dimensional array from my code as well.

import requests
import bs4 as bs

urls = 'http://dl5.lavinmovie.net/Series/'
url = requests.get(urls).text
soup = bs.BeautifulSoup(url, 'lxml')
title = soup.find_all('a')

for i in title:
    
    if(i.text != '../' and ".mp4" not in i.text):
        urll = urls+i.text
    # arr.append(i.text)
        urll1 = requests.get(urll).text
        soupp1 = bs.BeautifulSoup(urll1, 'lxml')
        season = soupp1.find_all('a')
        print(i.text)
        for j in season:

            if(j.text != '../'and ".mp4" not in j.text):

                urlla = urll+j.text
                urll2 = requests.get(urlla).text
                soupp2 = bs.BeautifulSoup(urll2, 'lxml')
                quality = soupp2.find_all('a')
                print(j.text)
                for k in quality:
                    if(k.text != '../' and ".mp4" not in k.text):

                        urllb = urlla+k.text
                        urll3 = requests.get(urllb).text
                        soupp3 = bs.BeautifulSoup(urll3, 'lxml')
                        episode = soupp3.find_all('a')
                        print(k.text)
                        for m in episode:
                            if(m.text != '../' and ".mp4" not in m.text):
                                print(m.text)
                   
                        
                        
                            

     

Series->Seasons->Quality->Episodes.

This is the flow chart of the JSON file that I wish to have. The code I have written goes through nested links and finds all of the data that I need,I am not being able to make a multi-dimensional array out of it.

My code recursively opens all of the links and scrapes the text that I want. All I need to solve is how to add all of it in a nested fashion.

Solution

In python any sort of data can be stored into list and dictionaries, there is almost never a need for making multi-dimensional arrays or vectors.

Series->Seasons->Quality->Episodes.

Just by looking at your flowchart(as you call it), you can workaround as follows:

episodes will be a list within Quality(dict) within Seasons(dict) within Series(dict)

You have to give a read to making dicts of dicts and dicts of lists and how to store data in them in Python.
