Poogle 0.1.0

Description:

Poogle 0.1.0

Poogle is a Google scraping library and command line utility for Python.
Currently, it only offers the ability to scrape Google search results.
Future functionality will enable retrieving of image links, similar
search queries, and even the ability to retrieve direct answers to
questions you can ask Google.

Installation
To install Poogle, simply:
$ pip install poogle


Usage
Poogle provides both a librry for use in your own Python applications,
as well as a CLI utility for executing search queries in the command
line.

Library

google_search()
Using the Poogle search library is pretty straightforward. If you all
you want is a set number of Google search results returned in list
format, use the google_search function,
from poogle import google_search

results = google_search('Python', results=2)
for result in results:
print(result.title)
print(result.url.as_string() + '\n')
The above code will result in output like the following:
Welcome to Python.org
https://www.python.org/

Python (programming language) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)
URL’s are returned as Yurl
objects out of the box.


Poogle
For more advanced usage, you will want to work with the Poogle class
object directly.
from poogle import Poogle

search = Poogle('Python', per_page=10, start_page=1, lazy=True)

print(search.total_results) # Estimated number of total search results reported by Google
print(search.results)

print(search.next_page()) # Returns an object containing the search results for the next page only
print(search.results)
The above code will result in output like the following:
159000000

The only major difference between using the google_search() function
and the Poogle class object at the moment is the ability to fetch more
search result pages after a query has already been executed.



CLI
For documentation on how to use the Poogle command line utility, run
poogle --help.
The only command available at the moment is search,
Usage: poogle search [OPTIONS] QUERY

Execute a Google search query and display the results

Options:
-r, --results INTEGER The number of search results to retrieve
--plain Disables bolding and keyword highlighting
--help Show this message and exit.
Using it is pretty straightfoward. Just be sure to quote your search
query if it contains more than one word.
$ poogle search -r 2 "Python"
Executing search query for Python
