I’ve already written about how the new No CAPTCHA ReCaptcha works, and even had some success breaking it with an iMacros’ browser automation. But, the latest scraping tools are – for most part – driven by Python, so now I want to try the same experiment with Selenium + Python.
In this post I will show you how easy it is to write a Python code that extracts hotel list from booking.com. The simplicity of this code is achieved with the help of Selenium Web Driver which acts as the main data extraction means here.
I have already written several articles on how to use WebDriver for web scraping, but I have never touched on the topic of changing WebDriver’s IP address. Nevertheless, this topic is quite crucial when you come to web scraping, and here I’d like to show you an example of using proxies with WebDriver in Python (and you can easily convert it into your language API).
LinkedIn API doesn’t allow you to publish into groups if you are not their administrator. That was done in order to eliminate spamming, but if you are a member of several groups of a similar topic and you want to share some interesting information with all of those groups, you have to do it manually group by group and eventually it becomes tedious. In this post I’ll show you a simple way to automate this process in C# using Selenium WebDriver.
I have already written several articles on how to use Selenium WebDriver for web scraping and all those examples were for Windows. But what about if you want to run your WebDriver-based scraper somewhere on a headless Linux server? For example on a Virtual Private Server with SSH-only access. Here I will show you how to do it in several simple steps.
Recently I published an article on how to solve captcha in C# using DeathByCaptcha service, and I promised to offer you an example in other languages as well. In this post I’ll offer a Java project that does the same thing.
Let’s look at a practical example on how to solve CAPTCHAs using the DeathByCaptcha service. This example is written in C#, but you can get it in Java as well.
In this article I’ll share with you 6 usefult tips that may help you when you work with Selenium WebDriver in Java.
Here is a real-world example of using Selenium WebDriver for scraping.
This short program is written in Java and scrapes book title and author from the Amazon webstore.
As we already showed you the example of using WebDriver with C#, in this post we will see how to extract web data using Selenium WebDriver with Java, the native language of Selenium WebDriver.
