IcePick

IcePick offers a highly accurate, simple method of scraping. It's a new way to scrape HTML - sorting by structure instead of classes and IDs.

What do I use IcePick for?

I scrape social media data in my webapp Harrow Search. IcePick is instrumental in scraping Facebook because of the myriad of similarly structured data items that appear on the site. (The Facebook API does not offer what I need, no. IcePick helped me construct an ad hoc API!)

Installation

pip install ipick

Usage

Check out the IcePick documentation README for an example of scraping the Python docs.
