To scrape data from Google Maps in Python, we can use the requests and BeautifulSoup libraries. Here is an example code snippet that scrapes search results for "restaurants near me" in Google Maps:
main.py628 chars22 lines
This code sends a GET request to the URL for the search query, extracts the HTML content using BeautifulSoup, and parses out the search results using the find_all()
method. Then, it loops through each result and prints out the restaurant name and address. Of course, this code can be modified to scrape different types of data from Google Maps or to search for different queries.
