Hello Developers,
I am a beginner in python and need help with writing a regular expression for
date and time to be fetched from some html documents. In the following code I
am walking through the html files in a folder called event and printing the
headings with h1 tag using beautifulsoup. These html pages also contains
different formats of date and time. I want to fetch and display this
information as well. Different formats of date in these html documents are:
21 - 27 Nov 2012
1 Dec 2012
30 Nov - 2 Dec 2012
26 Nov 2012
Can someone help me out with fetching these formats from these html documents ?
Here is my code for walking through the files and fetching h1 from those html
files:
Code:
import re
import os
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
for subdir, dirs, files in os.walk("/home/himanshu/event/"):
for fle in files:
path = os.path.join(subdir, fle)
soup = BeautifulSoup(open(path))
print (soup.h1.string)
#Date and Time detection
