I lost my credentials.. so I'm creating this new thread. The old question it here if it helps: How to click a button to vote with python
I'd like to change this line:
<a data-original-title="I like this faucet" href="#" class="vote-link up" data-faucet="39274" data-vote="up" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title=""><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-thumbs-up"></span></a>
to this:
<a data-original-title="I like this faucet" href="#" class="vote-link up voted" data-faucet="39274" data-vote="up" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title=""><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-thumbs-up"></span></a>
So that the vote is set changing vote-link up
to vote-link up voted
.
But the problem is that in that site, there are severals items to vote, and the element "data-faucet" changes. If I use this script:
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("linkurl")
element = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".vote-link.up")
element_attribute_value = element.get_attribute("data-faucet")
if element_attribute_value == "39274":
print ("Value: {0}".format(element_attribute_value))
driver.quit()
But it obsiusly doesn't print anything, cause the first attribute value has another number. How can I select my line with the input of the number of data-faucet
element, so I can replace it with vote-link up voted
?
I only can do this selenium? Is there another way without using a real browser?
Anyway, this is the structure of the webpage:
<html>
<head></head>
<body role="document">
<div id="static page" class="container-fluid">
<div id="page" class="row"></div>
<div id="faucets-list">
<tbody>
<tr class=""></tr>
<tr class=""></tr>
<tr class=""></tr>
<tr class=""></tr>
# an infinite number of nodes, until there's mine
<tr class="">
<td class="vote-col">
<div class="vote-box">
<div class="vote-links">
<a class="vote-link up" data-original-title="I like this faucet" href="#" data-faucet"39274" data-vote"up" data-toggle"tooltip" data-placement="top" title=""></a>
The site is this: https://faucetbox.com/en/list/BTC
To set the attribute we shall use the setAttribute method. JavascriptExecutor j = (JavascriptExecutor) driver; js. executeScript ("document. getElementsByClassName('heading')[0].
As the name suggests, the getAttribute method gets the value of a given HTML attribute. On the other hand, getText() returns the inner text of a given element. The term “inner text” means the text located between the opening and closing tags of the element.
From comments:-
Do you want to interact with element which has
data-faucet
attribute value39274
??exatly! just what I want to do!
You should try using css_selector
as below :-
element = driver.find_element_by_css_selector(".vote-link.up[data-faucet = '39274']")
ok.. now it selects something in fact if I print(element) terminal shows:
<selenium.webdriver.remote.webelement.WebElement (session="d54ae232-6d42-455f-a130-097be89adf1e", element="{96385594-1725-4843-bfed-d5a4e7b9af41}")>.
so now that I've selected it, how can I replace "vote-link up" with "vote-link up voted"?
You can replace class
attribute value using execute_script()
as below :-
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].setAttribute('class','vote-link up voted')", element)
