Description-Content-Type: text/markdown | |
Beautiful Soup is a library that makes it easy to scrape information | |
from web pages. It sits atop an HTML or XML parser, providing Pythonic | |
idioms for iterating, searching, and modifying the parse tree. | |
# Quick start | |
``` | |
>>> from bs4 import BeautifulSoup | |
>>> soup = BeautifulSoup("<p>Some<b>bad<i>HTML") | |
>>> print(soup.prettify()) | |
<html> | |
<body> | |
<p> | |
Some | |
<b> | |
bad | |
<i> | |
HTML | |
</i> | |
</b> | |
</p> | |
</body> | |
</html> | |
>>> soup.find(text="bad") | |
'bad' | |
>>> soup.i | |
<i>HTML</i> | |
# | |
>>> soup = BeautifulSoup("<tag1>Some<tag2/>bad<tag3>XML", "xml") | |
# | |
>>> print(soup.prettify()) | |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> | |
<tag1> | |
Some | |
<tag2/> | |
bad | |
<tag3> | |
XML | |
</tag3> | |
</tag1> | |
``` | |

# Note on Python 2 sunsetting | |
Beautiful Soup's support for Python 2 was discontinued on December 31, | |
2020: one year after the sunset date for Python 2 itself. From this | |
point onward, new Beautiful Soup development will exclusively target | |
Python 3. The final release of Beautiful Soup 4 to support Python 2 | |
was 4.9.3. | |
# Supporting the project | |
If you use Beautiful Soup as part of your professional work, please consider a | |
[Tidelift subscription](https://tidelift.com/subscription/pkg/pypi-beautifulsoup4?utm_source=pypi-beautifulsoup4&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=readme). | |
This will support many of the free software projects your organization | |
depends on, not just Beautiful Soup. | |
If you use Beautiful Soup for personal projects, the best way to say | |
thank you is to read | |
[Tool Safety](https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/zine/), a zine I | |
wrote about what Beautiful Soup has taught me about software | |
development. | |
# Building the documentation | |
The bs4/doc/ directory contains full documentation in Sphinx | |
format. Run `make html` in that directory to create HTML | |
documentation. | |
# Running the unit tests | |
Beautiful Soup supports unit test discovery using Pytest: | |
``` | |
$ pytest | |
``` | |
