How to pull the vedio link name imbeded in a web page along with vedio name

I am trying to pull all the video link reference from the web page along with video names, i have tried below code.

#!/usr/bin/python3
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests
import urllib
url = urllib.request.urlopen('https://www.ansible.com/resources/videos').read()
acc_link = BeautifulSoup(url, features="lxml")
for line in acc_link.find_all('a'):
    print(line.get('href'))

Output:

https://www.ansible.com/?hsLang=en-us
https://www.ansible.com/overview/it-automation?hsLang=en-us

https://www.ansible.com/use-cases/orchestration?hsLang=en-us
https://www.ansible.com/integrations?hsLang=en-us

HTML source code for example:

<h4><a href="https://www.ansible.com/resources/webinars-training/ansible-network-automation-with-arista-cloudvision-and-arista?hsLang=en-us">Ansible Network Automation with Arista CloudVision and Arista Validated Designs</a></h4>

Like above is just an example for the HTML source code of the link https://www.ansible.com/resources/videos i want link name as https://www.ansible.com/resources/webinars-training/ansible-network-automation-with-arista-cloudvision-and-arista and vedio name Ansible Network Automation with Arista CloudVision and Arista Validated Designs .

Below is just another example where i want href before ? and a value ie Scale-out Clustering with Tower 3.1.

<h4><a href="https://www.ansible.com/scale-out-clustering-tower?hsLang=en-us">Scale-out Clustering with Tower 3.1</a></h4>

Desired output:

Vedio Name: Ansible Network Automation with Arista CloudVision and Arista Validated Designs

Vedio Link: https://www.ansible.com/resources/webinars-training/ansible-network-automation-with-arista-cloudvision-and-arista

Thanks for the help in advanced.

Solution

If you want the href from all anchors then you can use a css select 'a[href]' which will only find anchor tags that have href attributes:

You indeed tweak a little bit as follows,

#!/usr/bin/python3
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import requests
import urllib

url = urllib.request.urlopen('https://www.ansible.com/resources/videos').read()
acc_link = BeautifulSoup(url, features="lxml")

for article in acc_link.find_all('div', class_='card-body'):
        # this will grab the name of the video article
        headline1 = article.h4.a.text
        # this will get your video link
        headline2 = article.select_one('a[href]')['href'].split('?')[0]
        #headline2 = headline2.split('?')[0]
        print(headline1)
        # I have placed the condition as few of the link address do not have
        #  the site link prefix www.ansible.com.
        if 'www' in headline2:
            print(headline2)
        else:
            print('https://www.ansible.com' + headline2)
        print()
