Description
Parsel is a Python library licensed under BSD that facilitates the extraction and removal of data from HTML and XML documents using XPath and CSS selectors, with the option to integrate regular expressions. To begin, you create a selector object for the HTML or XML content you wish to analyze. After that, you can utilize either CSS or XPath expressions to target specific elements. CSS serves as a styling language for HTML, defining selectors that link styles to designated HTML elements, while XPath is utilized for selecting nodes within XML documents and can also be applied to HTML. Although both CSS and XPath can be used, CSS tends to offer greater readability, whereas XPath provides capabilities that may not be achievable through CSS alone. Built on top of lxml, parsel selectors incorporate some EXSLT extensions and come with pre-registered namespaces available for use in XPath queries. Furthermore, parsel selectors allow for the chaining of selectors, enabling users to primarily select by class using CSS and seamlessly transition to XPath when the situation demands it, enhancing flexibility in data extraction tasks. This dual capability makes parsel a powerful tool for developers working with web data.
Description
Waiting is a compact library designed to facilitate the process of waiting for specific conditions to be met. It fundamentally pauses execution until a designated function returns True, offering various operational modes. Additionally, Waiting is designed to work seamlessly with flux for simulating timelines. The simplest way to utilize it is by providing a function to monitor. It’s straightforward to wait indefinitely; if your predicate yields a value, that value will be returned as the output of wait(). You can also set a timeout, and if this period lapses without the predicate being satisfied, an exception will occur. The library polls the predicate at a default interval of one second, which can be adjusted using the sleep_seconds parameter. When dealing with multiple predicates, Waiting offers two efficient methods for aggregation: any and all. These methods are similar to Python's built-in any() and all(), but they ensure that a predicate is not invoked more than necessary, which is particularly beneficial when working with predicates that are resource-intensive and time-consuming. By streamlining these functions, Waiting enhances both the efficiency and user experience of handling asynchronous operations.
