Points related to a particular news article, you will have to choose a different route.In the code above, we used the get_news() function to get the top news from nytimes.com. While extracting just a few of the data points, you can get all of them for further processing:TitleLinkAuthorsTagsDateSummaryContent Link for CommentsPost_idWe ran the code to obtain the JSON shown below. The tags can come in very handy in case you want to sort through hundreds of news articles or store them in cloud storage in a format such that they can be used later on in your NLP or ML projects.While these were the tools to obtain news information, you can also use the “describe_url” function to get details related to websites. For example, we took 3 news URLs, and obtained this information related to them:We got the data points such as URL, language, country, and topics for all the websites that we passed in a list.You can see how it identified the 2nd and 3rd websites to be of Italian origin and the topics for all 3. Some data points like the country may not be available for all the websites since they are providing services worldwide.FeedparserThe FeedParser Python library runs on Python3.6 or later and can be used to parse syndicated feeds. In short, it can parse RSS or Atom feeds and provide you with the information in the form of easy-to-understand data points. It acts as a news scraper and we can use it to mine news data from RSS feeds of different news websites. To install run: pip install feedparserBy default, you would need to first find the RSS URL for feedparser to parse. However, in this article, we will use feedparser in conjunction with the feedsearch Python library that can be used to find RSS URLs by scraping the URL of a news website. The code above first uses feedsearch to find RSS links from the NYTimes website, and then uses feedparser to parse the RSS feed. To install run: pip install feedsearchIf feedsearch cannot find еру RSS feed of a website there is a more advanced version with crawler called feedsearch-crawler. Newspaper3kNewsPaper3k is a Python library for web scraping news articles by just passing the URL. A lot of the libraries that we saw before gave us the content but along with a lot of HTML tags and junk data. This library would help
