I'm new in scraping, and I'm already blocked by the Incapsula protection.
import bs4
from urllib.request import urlopen as uReq
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as soup
my_url = 'https://www.immoweb.be/fr/recherche/immeuble-de-rapport/a-vendre'
# opening up connection, grabbing the page
uClient = uReq(my_url)
page_html = uClient.read()
uClient.close()
#html parsing
page_soup = soup(page_html, "html.parser")
page_soup.h1
I can't access any data from the website because I'm blocked by the InCapsula problem...
When I type :
print(page_soup)
I get this message:
<html style="height:100%"><head><meta content="NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW" name="ROBOTS"/><meta content="telephone=no" name="format-detection"/>
[...]
Request unsuccessful. Incapsula incident ID: 936002200207012991-
I did some tests described here Getting ‘wrong’ page source when calling url from python and only the workaround of @Karl Anka worked out.
See the example below:
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from selenium import webdriver
url = 'https://www.immoweb.be/fr/recherche/immeuble-de-rapport/a-vendre'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='./chromedriver')
driver.get(url)
soup = BeautifulSoup(driver.page_source, features='html.parser')
driver.quit()
print(soup.prettify())
Output:
