This project is about extracting Top 10 Crypto data from Coin Market website.
Target webpage shows top 10 records during first load, then loads rest of records based on user page scroll. For loading all 100 records we should use Selenium but, i want to show how you can WebScraping with Beautiful Soup library, so for now, we are satisfied with these 10 records.
The code contains 3 steps:
1- lines 2 - 6: Load the page and parse its content with BeautifulSoap
2- Line 7: Navigate the data structure with find_all looking for all p tags with specific class names.
The target data exists in a table so I easily extract the p tag's class-names with my browser inspector and write them in code. this way I extract each column of data separately.
3- Line 9 - 14: Extract list of values from just extracted p and save them in a DataFrame Column.
Thats it. Very simple. Enjoy
