The Core Framework of WebCrawlerX

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

class WebCrawlerX:
    def __init__(self, url):
        self.url = url

    def fetch_data(self):
        response = requests.get(self.url)
        soup = BeautifulSoup(response.content, 'html.parser')
        return soup

    def extract_headings(self, soup):
        headings = soup.find_all(['h1', 'h2', 'h3'])
        for heading in headings:
            print(heading.text.strip())

# Initializing and using the WebCrawlerX class
crawler = WebCrawlerX("https://example.com")
soup = crawler.fetch_data()
crawler.extract_headings(soup)

The Nuts and Bolts of WebCrawlerX

• HTTP Requests: The first step in web scraping is making HTTP requests to fetch web page content. We’re using Python’s requests library for this.
• Data Parsing: Once we get the HTML content, we use the BeautifulSoup library to parse this data and make it searchable.
• Data Extraction: Finally, the extract_headings function fetches specific data—in this case, webpage headings.

Expect the Web’s Wonders

After running this Python script, you’ll find:

A list of headings from the target website, neatly printed in your console.
An introduction to HTTP requests and HTML parsing.
A primer on the basics of web scraping.

WebCrawlerX gives you the power to tap into the internet’s endless resources and make the data work for you.
