seleniumbase launches a browser, opens a page, and enters a query into the search box. Then follows the links in a loop. And then in each link at each iteration of the loop, tries to pull h3 out of the link:
def rel_prods(url, one_data):
with SB(headed=True, uc=True) as driver:
driver.open(url)
time.sleep(26)
driver.type('#header-search', one_data['title'])
driver.click('button[data-auto="search-button"]')
time.sleep(random.uniform(2, 6))
elements = driver.find_elements('a[data-auto="snippet-link"]')
i = 1
for element in elements:
try:
h3_tag = element.get_text('h3')
print(h3_tag)
element.click()
time.sleep(2)
driver.switch_to_window(i)
time.sleep(random.uniform(2, 6))
driver.close()
driver.switch_to_default_window()
except Exception as e:
print(e)
And that's where the error comes out:
'WebElement' object has no attribute 'get_text'
Who knows how to implement this?
And also the driver.close() command closes the browser completely. I would like it to close only the current tab
The error message
'WebElement' object has no attribute 'get_text'
is telling you that there is no method .get_text() on a WebElement, e.g.
element.get_text('h3')
is not valid.
What you want is
element.text
