Issue
I am trying to extract this immigration data from Canada immigration website
I tried extracting the whole table, individual td tags, all returns empty list.
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from requests_html import HTMLSession
import requests
s = HTMLSession()
data=[]
url = "https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/ministerial-instructions/express-entry-rounds.html"
def getdata(url):
r = s.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(r.text, 'html.parser')
return soup
def gettabledata(soup):
table = soup.find_all('td',{'class':'sorting_1'})
I also tried finding tr tags in a table;
table = soup.find('table', class_='table')
print("\n TABLE \n")
print(table)
table_body = table.find('tbody')
print("\n TABLEBODY \n")
print(table_body)
rows = table_body.find_all('tr')
print("\n ROWS \n")
print(rows)
for row in rows:
cols = row.find_all('td')
cols = [ele.text.strip() for ele in cols]
data.append([ele for ele in cols if ele])
print(data)
Also tried , but doesnt work:
divs = soup.find_all('div', class_='dataTables_wrapper')
print("divs \n", divs)
for div in divs:
table = div.find('tbody',class_='wb-data-json-inited')
print("\n TABLE \n")
print(table)
table_body = table.find('tbody')
print("\n TABLEBODY \n")
print(table_body)
rows = table.find_all('tr')
print("\n ROWS \n")
print(rows)
for row in rows:
cols = row.find_all('td')
cols = [ele.text.strip() for ele in cols]
data.append([ele for ele in cols if ele])
print(data)
What am I missing, and how can I extract the table data?
Another doubt I have is how I can access the Program name and values just enclosed in td tags with no attributes. Each line in the table is a tr tag with a bunch of td tags in them :
<tr>
<td><a href="/content/canadasite/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/ministerial-instructions/express-entry-rounds/invitations-219.html">219</a></td>
<td class="nowrap">March 30, 2022</td>
<td>Provincial Nominee Program</td>
<td>919</td>
<td>785</td>
<td>30-03-2022</td>
<td><p>Provincial Nominee Program</p></td>
</tr>
Solution
That table is being loaded dynamically in page. You can inspect the Network Tab in Dev Tools, and see which API is being accessed to pull the data from. This is one way of obtaining the data in that table:
import requests
import pandas as pd
r = requests.get('https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/documents/json/ee_rounds_123_en.json')
df = pd.DataFrame(r.json()['rounds'])
print(df)
This will return a dataframe:
