Extracting variables from Javascript inside HTML

2024/11/13 9:29:00

I need all the lines which contains the text '.mp4'. The Html file has no tag!

My code:

import urllib.request
import demjson
url = ('https://myurl')
content = urllib.request.urlopen(url).read()


<script type="text/javascript">
/* <![CDATA[ */
function getEmbed(width, height) {
if (width && height) {
return '<iframe width="' + width + '" height="' + height + '" src="https://www.ptrex.com/embed/33247" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe>';
}
return '<iframe width="768" height="432" src="https://www.ptrex.com/embed/33247" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe>';
}
var flashvars = {
video_id: '33247', 																	license_code: '$535555517668914', 																	rnd: '1537972655', 																	video_url: 'https://www.ptrex.com/get_file/4/996a9088fdf801992d24457cd51469f3f7aaaee6a0/33000/33247/33247.mp4/', 																	postfix: '.mp4', 																	video_url_text: '480p', 																	video_alt_url: 'https://www.ptrex.com/get_file/4/774833c428771edee2cf401ef2264e746a06f9f370/33000/33247/33247_720p.mp4/', 																	video_alt_url_text: '720p HD', 																	video_alt_url_hd: '1', 																	timeline_screens_url: '//di-iu49il1z.leasewebultracdn.com/contents/videos_screenshots/33000/33247/timelines/timeline_mp4/200x116/{time}.jpg', 																	timeline_screens_interval: '10', 																	preview_url: '//di-iu49il1z.leasewebultracdn.com/contents/videos_screenshots/33000/33247/preview.mp4.jpg', 																	skin: 'youtube.css', 																	bt: '1', 																	volume: '1', 																	hide_controlbar: '1', 																	hide_style: 'fade', 																	related_src: 'https://www.ptrex.com/related_videos_html/33247/', 																	adv_pre_vast: 'https://pt.ptawe.com/vast/v3?psid=ed_pntrexvb1&utm_source=bf1&utm_medium=network&ms_notrack=1', 																	lrcv: '1556867449254522707330811', 																	adv_pre_replay_after: '2', 																	embed: '1'															};
var player_obj = kt_player('kt_player', 'https://www.ptrex.com/player/kt_player.swf?v=4.0.2', '100%', '100%', flashvars);
/* ]]> */
</script>

Answer

You could use BeautifulSoup to extract the <script> tag, but you would still need an alternative approach to extract the information inside.

Some Python can be used to first extract flashvars and then pass this to demjson to convert the Javascript dictionary into a Python one. For example:

import demjsoncontent = """<script type="text/javascript">/* <![CDATA[ */ 
... 
...
</script>"""script_var = content.split('var flashvars = ')[1]
script_var = script_var[:script_var.find('};') + 1]
data = demjson.decode(script_var)print(data['video_url'])
print(data['video_alt_url'])

This would then display:

https://www.ptrex.com/get_file/4/996a9088fdf801992d24457cd51469f3f7aaaee6a0/33000/33247/33247.mp4/
https://www.ptrex.com/get_file/4/774833c428771edee2cf401ef2264e746a06f9f370/33000/33247/33247_720p.mp4/

demjson is an alternative JSON decoder which can be installed via PIP

pip install demjson
