[FIXED] scraping data from web

Issue

I am trying to scrap prices, miles and models of different cars from truecar.com. I think, I find appropriate tags from the website but my code doesn't give me the suitable data. my code give me empty data and I do not find the problem. May you please help me? I receive unexpected indent when defining price, miles and model.

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import mysql.connector
url='https://www.truecar.com/used-cars-for-sale/listings/'
r=requests.get(url)
soup=BeautifulSoup(r.text,'html.parser')

data = []
for card in soup.select('[class="card-content vehicle-card-body order-3 vehicle-card-carousel- 
body"]'):
    price = card.select_one('[class="heading-3 margin-y-1 font-weight-bold"]').text

    miles = card.select_one('div[class="d-flex w-100 justify-content-between"]').text

    models=card.select_one('div[class="vehicle-card-top"]').text

    data.append({'price':price,'miles':miles,'models':models})

print(data)

Solution

You can use the following selectors to fetch the data.

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

url='https://www.truecar.com/used-cars-for-sale/listings/'
r=requests.get(url)

soup=BeautifulSoup(r.text,'html.parser')

cards = soup.select('div.linkable.card.card-shadow.vehicle-card._1qd1muk')

data = []
for card in cards:
    vehicleCardYearMakeModel = card.find("div", {"data-test" : "vehicleCardYearMakeModel"}).text.replace('Sponsored', '')
    vehicleMileage = card.find("div", {"data-test" : "vehicleMileage"}).text
    vehiclePrice = card.find("div", {"data-test" : "vehicleCardPricingBlockPrice"}).text
    data.append({'price':vehiclePrice,'miles':vehicleMileage,'models':vehicleCardYearMakeModel})

which gives you the expected output
