Im trying to extract a list from webpage using selenium and python. I need to import it as list in order to find elements inside that list later using python code.
this is how its stored in the webpage:
...<input type="hidden" name="GridContainerDataV" value="[["7131090","Arvejas, Enteras Verdes","400","",""],["71311099","Arvejas, Enteras Azules","520","abril/2021","mayo/2021"],["71311100","lo que sea","720","junio/2021","diciembre/2021"],...]]" autocomplete="off">
This is how I tried to extracted (Im super begginer in python):
try:
tabla = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(
EC.presence_of_element_located((By.NAME, "GridContainerDataV")))
print(tabla.value)
The list:
[["7131090","Arvejas, Enteras Verdes","400","",""],["71311099","Arvejas, Enteras Azules","520","abril/2021","mayo/2021"],["71311100","lo que sea","720","junio/2021","diciembre/2021"],...]]
is the value of the value
attribute of the <input>
tag and is hidden . To extract the list you need to induce WebDriverWait for the presence_of_element_located()
and you can use either of the following Locator Strategies :
Using NAME
:
print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.NAME, "GridContainerDataV"))).get_attribute("value"))
Using CSS_SELECTOR
:
print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.CSS_SELECTOR, "input[name='GridContainerDataV']"))).get_attribute("value"))
Using XPATH
:
print(WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, "//input[@name='GridContainerDataV']"))).get_attribute("value"))
Note : You have to add the following imports:
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
you should use the get_attribute
function
try:
tabla = WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.NAME, "GridContainerDataV")))
print(tabla.get_attribute('value')
