I am parsing a JS generated webpage like so:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get('https://www.consumerbarometer.com/en/graph-builder/?question=M1&filter=country:singapore,canada,mexico,brazil,argentina,united_states,bulgaria,austria,belgium,croatia,czech_republic,denmark,estonia,finland,france,germany,greece,hungary,italy,ireland,latvia,lithuania,norway,netherlands,poland,portugal,russia,romania,serbia,slovakia,spain,slovenia,sweden,switzerland,ukraine,united_kingdom,australia,china,israel,hong_kong_sar,japan,korea,new_zealand,malaysia,taiwan,turkey,vietnam')
// wait for svg to appear
WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.TAG_NAME, 'svg')))
for text in driver.find_elements_by_class_name('bar-text-label'):
print(text.text)
driver.close()
Besides getting the text
from the class bar-text-label
I would also like to get values from an HTML5 data-attribute. For example,<rect rx="3" ry="3" width="76%" height="40" transform="translate(0,40)" data-value="76" class="bar"></rect>
and I would like to be able to parse 76
from this.
Is this possible to do in Selenium?
I tried both of the below, with no sucess:
for text in driver.find_elements_by_class_name('bar'):
print(data_value.text)
for data in driver.find_elements_by_xpath('//*[contains(@data-value)]/@data-value'):
print(data.text)
The getAttribute() method fetches the text contained by an attribute in an HTML document. It returns the value of the HTML element's attribute as a string. If a value is not set for an attribute, it will return a NULL value. For attributes with Boolean values, getAttribute() will return either "True" or NULL.
We can fetch href links in a page in Selenium by using the method find_elements(). All the links in the webpage are designed in a html document such that they are enclosed within the anchor tag. To fetch all the elements having <anchor> tagname, we shall use the method find_elements_by_tag_name().
If you have elements like the following:
<rect rx="3" ry="3" width="76%" height="40" transform="translate(0,40)" data-value="75" class="bar">bar1</rect>
<rect rx="3" ry="3" width="76%" height="40" transform="translate(0,40)" data-value="76" class="bar">bar2</rect>
You can get the text value and the attribute value as follows:
elements = driver.find_elements_by_class_name('bar')
for element in elements:
print element.text
print element.get_attribute('data-value')
This prints out:
bar1
75
bar2
76
