peewee-scipt does not run well: how to get it done?

[sayhello_to_the_world]

hello - relatively new to python i have some issues

Code: Select all

import urllib
import urlparse
import re
# import peewee
import json
from peewee import *


#from peewee import MySQLDatabase ('cpan', user='root',passwd='rimbaud') 

db = MySQLDatabase('cpan', user='root',passwd='rimbaud') 

class User(Model):
    name = TextField()
    cname = TextField()
    email = TextField()
    url = TextField()

    class Meta:
        database = db # this model uses the cpan database


User.create_table() #ensure table is created


url = "http://search.cpan.org/author/?W"
html = urllib.urlopen(url).read()
for lk, capname, name in re.findall('<a href="(/~.*?/)"><b>(.*?)</b></a><br/><small>(.*?)</small>', html):
    alk = urlparse.urljoin(url, lk)

    data = { 'url':alk, 'name':name, 'cname':capname }

    phtml = urllib.urlopen(alk).read()
    memail = re.search('<a href="mailto:(.*?)">', phtml)
    if memail:
        data['email'] = memail.group(1)


data = json.load('email') #your json data file here

for entry in data: #assuming your data is an array of JSON objects
    user = User.create(name=entry["name"], cname=entry["cname"],
        email=entry["email"], url=entry["url"])
    user.save()

but this fails... see

Code: Select all

martin@linux-70ce:~/perl> python cpan_100.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "cpan_100.py", line 47, in <module>
    data = json.load('email') #your json data file here
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/json/__init__.py", line 286, in load
    return loads(fp.read(),
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'read'
martin@linux-70ce:~/perl> 

guess that i have made something wrong: We should try out to write like so:

Code: Select all

data = [] 

before our html is going to parse and loop and then do

Code: Select all

entry = { 'url':alk, 'name':name, 'cname':capname }

and probably

Code: Select all

data.append(entry.copy())

within the loop.


if you have some ideas - i would be glad to hear from you
