Example Use


```python from photon import Photon #Create a new Photon instance ph = Photon() #Extract data from a specific element of the website url = "https://www.example.com" selector = "div.main" data = ph.get_data(url, selector) #Print the extracted data print(data) #Extract data from multiple websites asynchronously urls = ["https://www.example1.com", "https://www.example2.com"] data = ph.get_data_async(urls) ```
```go // This example extracts all quotes from quotes.toscrape.com and exports to JSON file. func main() { geziyor.NewGeziyor(&geziyor.Options{ StartURLs: []string{"http://quotes.toscrape.com/"}, ParseFunc: quotesParse, Exporters: []export.Exporter{&export.JSON{}}, }).Start() } func quotesParse(g *geziyor.Geziyor, r *client.Response) { r.HTMLDoc.Find("div.quote").Each(func(i int, s *goquery.Selection) { g.Exports <- map[string]interface{}{ "text": s.Find("span.text").Text(), "author": s.Find("small.author").Text(), } }) if href, ok := r.HTMLDoc.Find("li.next > a").Attr("href"); ok { g.Get(r.JoinURL(href), quotesParse) } } ```
