Is scrap-and-parse.py working?

Open xdebbie opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

I would like to create a new database to fetch the most recent data, with all scores up to today's time (May 2020). I am using Python 3.7 and the scrap-and-parse.py keeps giving errors such as

except sqlite3.Error, e: (line 41)

Is it somehow related to the Python version (I am a totally newbie here) or is the code not working?

I wrote scrape-and-parse.py in 2014, but Pitchfork has since redesigned its website so the code no longer works.

You're better off finding a more active Pitchfork scraping project out there, as I don't have the time/desire to fix this any time soon.

Thanks for your interest though!
