Open Saurabh254 opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

Describe the feature

As an GSSoC'24 contributer, I want to enhance my developing skills into this scrape-up. also I'll be working in this issue, point to be noted I'm the contributor of the python package pyquora (quora scrapper).

I'm working on this because pyquora lacks some features like fetch get Answers by search query.

also I would like to make the scrap-up quora scrapper better.

the part I'll be covering will be

  • fetch user Answers
  • Get answers by a search query
  • fetch UserProfile

Add ScreenShots

will cover every details from the bellow image 2024-05-12-21:34:49-screenshot

hi @Saurabh254 i would like to work on this issue my steps would be:

1.web scraping using libraries such as beautifulsoup,selenium 2.Understand the Website Structure to inspect the HTML of the comments section. 3.efficiency consideration: Add delays between requests to avoid overloading the website's server. Handle pagination 4.sentiment analysis: using libraries like TextBlob or NLTK.

we don't have to use selenium because not every system supports it. I rather be using regex to scrap the json.

Go ahead @Saurabh254

Note

  • Please create a separate module for this, as in the folder and project structure (if it is already created, just add your features as functions in the same module).
  • Do not use the `selenium web driver as it is incompatible with all devices and cloud platforms.
  • Before making any changes, please check whether the module you want to add exists. If yes, then you can add your functionality as a method only make a separate module and class for it.

All the best 👨‍💻
