Loved it. It automatically detected the data structure suited for the website and that helped me in learning how to use the tool without having to read the tutorial! Beautifully written tool. Kudos.
Great tool for mining data. We used Data Miner to extract data from the Medicare.gov website for an upcoming mailing to nursing homes and assisted living facilities. It can comb through a number of pages in a matter of seconds, extracting thousands of rows into one concise spreadsheet. I would highly recommend this product to any business looking to obtain data for any purpose – mailing, email campaign, etc. Thank you Data Miner!
This was my first time using the Data Miner support and it was awesome – every company should have “office hours” and the ability to quickly get answers like I did today.
How do I scrape data from a website?
As you can see from the diagram, we saw that there are 4 main slots in a website browser. The first is the application browser, which is used to navigate to the data we want to scrape. The next slot is the private browser, which is used to collect and edit the data we’ve requested.
Each service has it’s own private sectional browser and it’s own private private homepage. We only need to browse to a specific page, and then scrape as many sites as we want.
Scrapy is a personal web scraping tool that lets you take notes about where you’re currently based and what tags indicate that area of the page to the next page.
You might have noticed that Scrapy allows you to take notes only in the current window. That’s because that’s a bad idea. If you start looking at your page again and look again at the tags on the next view, you might notice that there is a new tag indicating a current window. That tag is clickable, so you can select to see what tree that window is in. Once you find the node that you want to scrape, you can click on the node in the next tree view, and then click the Finish button.
Once you find the selected element, you want to click on the Finish button. The point is, you want to scrape the DOM first. When you click on the Finish button, you want to be done with the DOM.
