python - Copy text from website to text/excel file -
i'm trying create simple (hopefully) python script copies text address:
http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/trades.csv?symbol=mtgoxusd
to either simple text file or excel spreadsheet.
i've tried utilising urllib , resquests libraries, every time try , run basic script, shell wouldn't display anything.
for example,
import requests data = requests.get('http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/trades.csv?symbol=mtgoxusd') data.text
any appreciated. thank you.
you're done;
import requests symbol = "mtgoxusd" url = 'http://api.bitcoincharts.com/v1/trades.csv?symbol={}'.format(symbol) data = requests.get(url) # dump resulting text file open("trades_{}.csv".format(symbol), "w") out_f: out_f.write(data.text)
