Question

Python

Hello!
You need to parse your and friends' pages on Facebook. Extract data from the profile (in which university they study, etc.).
The Facebook Graph API is not suitable, since they have closed any requests to user.
Which library is best for this task? requests?grab?others?

Answer 1

Any library for HTTP to support GET and POST requests, the responses will be in HTML format including AJAX, you need to parse them with something, for HTML, try BeautifulSoup separately or RoboBrowser (there are both BeautifulSoup and HTTP GET, but I don’t know if there are POST except form).
