I am a first time poster. I'm making a program to tell the weather with requests and BeautifulSoup that is formatting the proper information wrong. I have
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url = 'https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/today/l/91ae3bca47e7dbeb23a6f4b10cb656d234e65f12a1e9b4dc80a0e02e5baa838c'
def getdata(url):
r = requests.get(url)
return r.text
htmldata = getdata(
"https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/today/l/91ae3bca47e7dbeb23a6f4b10cb656d234e65f12a1e9b4dc80a0e02e5baa838c")
soup = BeautifulSoup(htmldata, 'html.parser')
precip = soup.find('div', id='WxuTodayWeatherCard-main-486ce56c-74e0-4152-bd76-7aea8e98520a')
currentPrecip = precip.find('li')
for j in currentPrecip:
showPrecip = currentPrecip.get_text()
result = f"Current Temp: {showPrecip}"
print(result)
The program is outputting Current Temp: Morning-5°Snow-- and I want it to output Current Temp: -5°C, Sky Snow
Any help is appreciated and thanks in advance
Your question is not that clear, your taking the forecast and expect the current data. This may should be improved.
Current:
live = soup.select_one('div.styles--card--3aeCQ a')
print(f"Current Temp: {live.find('span').get_text()}, Sky: {live.find('svg').get_text()}")
Forecast (Morning):
morning = soup.select_one('section[data-testid="TodayWeatherModule"] ul>li')
print(f"Current Temp: {morning.div.span.get_text()}, Sky: {morning.find('title').get_text()}")
Example
import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
url = 'https://weather.com/en-IN/weather/today/l/91ae3bca47e7dbeb23a6f4b10cb656d234e65f12a1e9b4dc80a0e02e5baa838c'
soup = BeautifulSoup(requests.get(url).text, 'html.parser')
live = soup.select_one('div.styles--card--3aeCQ a')
print(f"Current Temp: {live.find('span').get_text()}, Sky: {live.find('svg').get_text()}")
morning = soup.select_one('section[data-testid="TodayWeatherModule"] ul>li')
print(f"Current Temp: {morning.div.span.get_text()}, Sky: {morning.find('title').get_text()}")
Output
Current Temp: -2°, Sky: Snow
Current Temp: -5°, Sky: Snow
