Tools for isolating phones from GSM arena filtered searchs that also ron LineageOS

Intro

Set of tools to parse phone data from GSM Arena's filtered search, and LineageOS device list page.

Usage

Quick environment setup

create directories for storing data:

mkdir -p data/{inputs,outputs}
pip install -r requirements.txt

Get list of phones from GSM Arena

1. Using search function get page with the list of phones you're interested in.
2. Save page into data/inputs/myphones.html

Generate a simplified list of desired phones

./gsm_arena_devices.sh inputs/myphones.html > outputs/myphones.list

Get List of LineageOS supported phones

1. Open Lineage OS Devices page
2. Save page into data/inputs/los-devices.list

Generate simplified list of LOS phones

./los_device_list.sh data/inputs/los-devices.html

Compare the lists

provided word_diff.py tool is opinionative and biased towards provided phone lists trying to find the closest matches between two lists specified:

python word_diff.py data/outputs/los_device.list data/outputs/myphones.list

Due to differences in notation etc. it's hard to find exact matches, thus tool produces colorized output similar to following:

Motorola: edge
Samsung: Galaxy Note10+ 5G
Sony: Xperia 1 II
Xiaomi: Mi 11 Lite 5G

Asus: ZenFone 8 
Asus: Zenfone 8 Flip 

Motorola: edge 20 
Motorola: Edge 20 Lite 

Motorola: edge 20 pro 
Motorola: Edge 20 Lite 

Samsung: Galaxy A52 4G 
Samsung: Galaxy A52 5G 

Samsung: Galaxy S10 5G 
Samsung: Galaxy A33 5G 

Samsung: Galaxy S10 5G 
Samsung: Galaxy A42 5G 

Xiaomi: Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE / 11 Lite NE 5G / Mi 11 LE 
Xiaomi: 11 Lite 5G NE 

first 4 lines are exact matches - i.e. phones that were found in both lists. Following line pairs is tool's attempt to find lines where at least 75% of the words from one string have a match in a second string (as could be seen by the last match).

unfortunately that produces a rather "noisy" output, however it does help to narrow down the search significantly.
