BeautifulSoup, выберите текст для извлечения

Question

Я хотел бы почистить некоторые цитаты и авторов, но не нашел способа отделить цитату от автора во время очистки.

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

#url = 'https://www.goodreads.com/quotes'
#r = requests.get(url)
#soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html.parser')

html = """
       <div class="quoteText">&ldquo;Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.&rdquo; <br>  &#8213;
       <span class="authorOrTitle">Narcotics Anonymous</span>
       </div>
"""

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')

quotes = soup.find_all('div', {'class': 'quoteText'})

for quote in quotes:
    if quote.text is not None:
        print(quote.text)

Answer 1

Вы можете попробовать использовать stripped_strings свойство:

for quote in quotes:
    if quote.text is not None:
        strings = [string for string in quote.stripped_strings]
        quote_body = strings[0]
        quote_author = strings[2]
        print(quote_body) 
        print(quote_author)

Answer 2

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

#url = 'https://www.goodreads.com/quotes'
#r = requests.get(url)
#soup = BeautifulSoup(r.content, 'html.parser')

html = """
       <div class="quoteText">&ldquo;Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.&rdquo; <br>  &#8213;
       <span class="authorOrTitle">Narcotics Anonymous</span>
       </div>
"""

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')

quotes = soup.find_all('div', {'class': 'quoteText'})

for quote in quotes:
    if quote.text is not None:
        quote_ = quote.text
        quote_data = quote_.split(" ―")
        quote_without_author = quote_data[0]
        quote_author = quote_data[1]
        print(quote_without_author.strip())
        print(quote_author.strip())

Вы можете разделить данные на -, как и элемент [0] вашей цитаты и [1] вашего автора.

Выход:

“Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results.”
Narcotics Anonymous
