July 27, 2022

I’m trying to transform scraping Hedgefollow website in dataframe.
This is the code:
can you help me in this transformation?

import selenium.webdriver
import time

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options

url = 'https://hedgefollow.com/funds/Duquesne+Family+Office'
options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
options.binary_location = r'C:/Local/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe'
driver = selenium.webdriver.Firefox(executable_path='C:Desktop/111/geckodriver.exe' , options=options)

driver.get(url)

time.sleep(3)

table = driver.find_element('id' , 'dgtopHolders')

print('--- headers ---')
row = table.find_elements_by_tag_name('tr')[0]
for cell in row.find_elements_by_tag_name('th'):
    print(cell.text)

print('--- data ---')
for row in table.find_elements_by_tag_name('tr')[1:]:
    for cell in row.find_elements_by_tag_name('td'):
        print(cell.text)
    print('---')

#Can you help me?
#thank you so much

>Solution :

The following method will get you the table as a pandas dataframe:

from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By    
import pandas as pd

[...]
driver.get(url)

table = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.ID, 'dgtopHolders')))
dfs = pd.read_html(table.get_attribute('outerHTML'))
print(dfs[0])

Result:
