Python Scraping Images With BeautifulSoup
I'm trying to scrape and download images from a website using BeautifulSoup. I have scraped a list of links stored in imgVal, the code can then create a new directory to store the images. The problem I have is the code will only download one image from the list of links. I would like to download them all. How can I accomplish this?
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
from os.path import basename
import requests
import os
...
def writeImages():
imgVal = getThumbnailLinks()
imgBasename = 'n'.join(map(str, imgVal))
pageNumber = '001'
filename = pageNumber + '/'
os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(filename), exist_ok=True)
with open(filename + basename(imgBasename),"wb") as f:
f.write(requests.get(imgBasename).content)
writeImages()
python beautifulsoup with-statement

Do you store inimgValarray (dictionary) of links? Or just single one? Could you show implementation ofgetThumbnailLinks()function? Because if it is collection of links, as you've written, I'm not sure thatimgBasename = 'n'.join(map(str, imgVal))will work...

so you want to download multi line URL as input for requests? you can't, you have to do it one by one using loop.
def writeImages():
pageNumber = '001'
filename = pageNumber + '/'
os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(filename), exist_ok=True)
imgVal = getThumbnailLinks() # ['http://a.jpg', 'http://b.jpg']
for imgBasename in imgVal:
with open(filename + basename(imgBasename),"wb") as f:
f.write(requests.get(imgBasename).content)
writeImages()
