web_crawlers's Issues

IndexError in sort

sort is throwing a IndexError
File "imdb.py", line 20, in
href = name[0].find('a')['href']
IndexError: list index out of range

File still named as tpd.py in README.md

As the file name was changed recently from tpd.py to tutorialsPointDownloader.py, there wasn't any modification to the readme file of the repo. This lead me to uselessly search for tpd.py instead among the files.

Where does ”pynotify“ exist?

I didn't find any suitable installation files for this library in your code on github and python.org. I tried to use pip to install it, but the installation is not a desktop prompt at all, there is no corresponding init method.

bing_v2.py not setting wallpaper

looks like bing_v2.py is not working properly. First of all '.bing.txt' file has to be created which is missing. A Bing folder is also missing. After applying this fix, this error is generated- "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 34: ordinal not in range(128)."

To fix this replace all image_text[0].text with image_text[0].text.encode('utf-8'). The image is downloaded and entries in '.bing.txt' is updated accordingly but the wallpaper is still not changing.

I am using ubuntu 16.04 64 bit with python 2.7.11.

IndexError on BookMyshow

Raises 'IndexError' in your BookMyshow Script.

Requirements File

As these files use many of the python libraries that should be downloaded first from the pip tool, So can you provide a requirement.txt file along with the install.py file. And I loved your work keep it up. 👍 :)
