- 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")
- u'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>
- ```
-

- # 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 from the project root directory:
-
- ```
- $ nosetests
- ```
-
- ```
- $ python -m unittest discover -s bs4 # Python 2.7 and up
- ```
-
- If you checked out the source tree, you should see a script in the
- home directory called test-all-versions. This script will run the unit
- tests under Python 2.7, then create a temporary Python 3 conversion of
- the source and run the unit tests again under Python 3.
