Beautifulsoup 里面提取<br>标签

Question

I have html code like this

<td><b>Total : 32</b><br/>Mango : 12<br/>Banana : 4<br/>Grape : 16<br/>Watermelon : 0 </td>

How can i extract it to variable like this?

Total : 32
Mango : 12
Banana : 4
Grape : 16
Watermelon : 0

Just get the number, the name as variable

Thanks.

Answer 1

Try:

a = '<td><b>Total : 32</b><br/>Mango : 12<br/>Banana : 4<br/>Grape : 16<br/>Watermelon : 0 </td>'
for i in a.strings:
    print(i)

Remember, a is not a string but a <class 'bs4.BeautifulSoup'> . this gives the output:

Total : 32
Mango : 12
Banana : 4
Grape : 16
Watermelon : 0 

This can be stored as a dictionary:

dc = {}
for i in a.strings:
    dc[i.split()[0]] = int(i.split()[-1])

this gives:

{'Total': 32, 'Mango': 12, 'Banana': 4, 'Grape': 16, 'Watermelon': 0}

---

Now if you are sure that you need variables like Total which has the value 32, try (not recommended method):

for i in a.strings:
    exec(f'{i.split()[0]} = int(i.split()[-1])')

Now call them:

>>>Total
32
>>>Mango
12

You can also use FOP approach (assuming that you've already soup created as soup :

map(lambda br: print(br.text), soup.find_all('br'))
