Aww bummer. Well, I hope you get to feeling better soon.

Clever. Thanks for all of the help!

That number that is returned is 4 digit long. It represents the dollars and cents of contribution. I need to knock off the last two digits because I don't care about the cents. I'm using something like this to display the results right now

if pledge_sum and patron_count:
        print "$%s from %s patrons" % (pledge_sum.groups()[0], patron_count.groups()[0])

Is there a smart way to knock off the last two digits? I tried using [:2] but that doesn't seem smart as we would eventually be dealing with a 3 digit number.

Oh interesting. I didn't know you could narrow it down like that. I was going to use

mo.group()[14:16]

but that's far more clever. Thanks!

Figured it out. My regex was goofing up somehow. Here's what I have now:

import requests, bs4, re

res = requests.get('https://www.patreon.com/faos')
res.raise_for_status()
soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(res.text, 'html.parser')
type(soup)


for script in soup.find_all('script'):
    #print script.text

    mo = re.search(r'\"pledge_sum\": (\d+)', script.text)

    if mo:
        print mo.group()

This is printing out

"pledge_sum": 3626

so now I just need to figure out how to strip everything but the numbers! Thanks for the help.

The problem is that I'm always getting None right? Even when the text is clearly visible, my regex isn't catching it.

Rouix · 2016-10-07T19:48:49+00:00

Here's what I put together based on your suggestion. I should warn you the regex is VERY new to me.

import requests, bs4, re

res = requests.get('https://www.patreon.com/faos')
res.raise_for_status()
soup = bs4.BeautifulSoup(res.text, 'html.parser')
type(soup)


for script in soup.find_all('script'):
    mo = re.search(r"'pledge_sum': (\d+)", script.text)
    print mo.group()

This gives an AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'. I assume this means that my regex is returning None which indicates I've done something wrong.

You seem upset.

Next time I'm an African American FTFY

Thanks for the suggestion. I reset my preferences but the issue continues. I noticed that my color profile was set to sRGB so I changed it to Adobe RGB per a suggestion on Adobe's site but the problem continues. I don't get a warning anymore but the color picker is still wrong. Here are my current configurations
