Queries seem limited to the first 20 results provided by Scholar
Hello,
I executed the following command line:
python scholar.py scholar.py -c 100 --after=2007 --author "brice morin" --citation bt > ref.bib
My goal was to extract a bibtex file containing all my papers. It however seems that what I get as a result (despite the -c 100 option) is the bibtex entries of all my papers provided on the first page on my Google Scholar page, basically the first 20 papers.
It would be nice if I (and I guess it makes sense for many other users of your tool) would be able to get all entries, not just the first page provided by Google Scholar.
Thank you
Hi Brice,
Yep you're right, the 20 results correspond to the maximum number of results Google Scholar will let you retrieve with a single query. Multi-page retrieval is in the works...
Thanks for using scholar.py.
Cheers, -C.
Another vote here for multi-page retrieval! scholar.py is a fantastic tool, since google scholar doesn't offer any export function of its own, but the 20-article limit limits its usefulness for literature reviews.
The Pull Request #44 solves this problem.

@ckreibich Hi Christian, may I ask any progress on this?
