Re: Entering initial data into django database

Thanks ludovic, here is my code for the scraper..




 

from .models import Betting

import re
import requests
import urllib
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup


urls= "https://sms.betyetu.co.ke/tomorrow.html"
htmlfile = urllib.urlopen(urls)
htmltext = htmlfile.read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(htmltext, "html.parser")


for i in soup.findAll("table"):
    print i.contents[1].contents[1].findAll("th")[0].text
    print i.contents[1].contents[3].findAll("th")[0].text


   
   


       
    try:
        momo = 1
        a = len( i.contents[3].contents)
        while momo <= a:
            print i.contents[3].contents[momo].findAll("td")[2].text
           
            foo = Betting(matches=i.contents[3].contents[momo].findAll("td")[2].text)
           
            momo += 2

           
            foo.save()
           

       
   
    except:
        momo = 1

   



I have a model called "betting" which has only one field "matches"..For it to work, I have placed it in init.py which is a wrong way to do it..Wanted to understand where this code should be placed..ie..which file and how to interact with it
