I'm scraping the timetable on Medmar website and would like to divide the route from:
"Pozzuoli » Ischia"
"Pozzuoli - Procida"
to
"DEPARTURE PORT": 'Pozzuoli'
"ARRIVAL PORT": 'Ischia'
"DEPARTURE PORT": 'Pozzuoli'
"ARRIVAL PORT": 'Procida'
I've tried splitting the text from the list in two different ways depending if it has the "»" or "-" divider between the two ports. First I search for "»" or "-" and divide the string accordingly. For some reason, I'm getting a re error on search
re.error: unterminated character set at position 0
def port_name_regex(port_name, index):
if re.search("[^\x00-\x7f",port_name):
port_name = departure_port = re.split("[^\x00-\x7f]",port_name,1)[index].capitalize
return port_name
else:
port_name = re.split("\w",port_name,1)[index].capitalize
return port_name
medmar_live_departures_table = list(soup.select('li.tratta'))
for li in medmar_live_departures_table:
next_li = li.find_next_sibling("li")
while next_li and next_li.get("data-toggle"):
if next_li.get("class") == ["corsa-yes"]:
medmar_live_departures_data.append({
'DEPARTURE PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, 0),
'ARRIVAL PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, -1),
'DEPARTURE TIME': next_li.strong.text,
'FERRY TYPE': "Traghetto",
'STATUS': "Active",
'OTHER INFO': "Next departure"
})
elif next_li.get("class") == ["corsa-no"]:
medmar_live_departures_data.append({
'DEPARTURE PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, 0),
'ARRIVAL PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, -1),
'DEPARTURE TIME' : next_li.strong.text,
'FERRY TYPE': "Traghetto",
'STATUS': "Cancelled"
})
next_li.find_next_sibling("li")
else:
medmar_live_departures_data.append({
'DEPARTURE PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, 0),
'ARRIVAL PORT': port_name_regex(li.text, -1),
'DEPARTURE TIME' : next_li.strong.text,
'FERRY TYPE': "Traghetto",
'STATUS': "Active"
})
next_li = next_li.find_next_sibling("li")
How do I solve this problem?
I ran into the same error and I solved it by replacing brackets and parentheses like so:
re.sub('\(|\)|\]|\[', '', word.lower())
The error hints at this (unterminated character set) - parens/brackets come in an open and close set, suggesting one is missing. Check your data for these characters.
