Answer a question

so I have done data extract from a table using library BeautifulSoup with code below:

        if soup.find("table", {"class":"a-keyvalue prodDetTable"}) is not None:
        table = parse_table(soup.find("table", {"class":"a-keyvalue prodDetTable"}))
        df = pd.DataFrame(table)

So this worked, I get the table nad parse it out into dataframe, however i am trying to do something similar on different website using selenium and here is my code so far:

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
i = "DCD710S2"
base_url = str("https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=" + str(i))
driver.get(base_url)
table = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//*[@id='collapseSpecs']/div/div/div[1]/table/tbody")

So I am getting to the table and I tried to use getAttribute(innerHTML) and some other getAttribute elements but I am unable to get the table as is into pandas. Any suggestions on how to handle that with selenium?

Here is how html looks:

Use pandas to fetch the tables. Try following code.

import pandas as pd
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
i = "DCD710S2"
base_url = str("https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=" + str(i))
driver.get(base_url)
time.sleep(3)
html=driver.page_source
soup=BeautifulSoup(html,'html.parser')
div=soup.select_one("div#collapseSpecs")
table=pd.read_html(str(div))
print(table[0])
print(table[1])

Output:

If you want single dataframe try this.

import pandas as pd
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
i = "DCD710S2"
base_url = str("https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=" + str(i))
driver.get(base_url)
time.sleep(3)
html=driver.page_source
soup=BeautifulSoup(html,'html.parser')
div=soup.select_one("div#collapseSpecs")
table=pd.read_html(str(div))
frames = [table[0], table[1]]
result=pd.concat(frames,ignore_index=True)
print(result)

Selenium options with pandas Dataframe.

import pandas as pd
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium import webdriver
spec_name=[]
spec_item=[]
driver = webdriver.Chrome()
i = "DCD710S2"
base_url = str("https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=" + str(i))
driver.get(base_url)
tables=WebDriverWait(driver,20).until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH,"//div[@id='collapseSpecs']//table")))
for table in tables:
    for row in table.find_elements_by_xpath(".//tr"):
        spec_name.append(row.find_element_by_xpath('./th').get_attribute('textContent'))
        spec_item.append(row.find_element_by_xpath('./td/span').get_attribute('textContent'))

df = pd.DataFrame({"Spec_Name":spec_name,"Spec_Title":spec_item})

print(df)
