TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not callable when scraping

Question

I am new in Python and try to scrape data from the web to (eventually) feed a small database.

My code is generating a NoneType error. Could you assist?

import urllib2
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
    #1- create files to Leagues, stock data and error
FLeague= open("C:\Python\+exercice\SoccerLeague.txt","w")
FData=open("C:\Python\+exercice\FootballDump.txt","w")
ErrorFile=open("C:\Python\+exercice\ErrorFootballScrap.txt","w")
#Open the website
# 1- grab the data and get the error too
soup = BeautifulSoup(urllib2.urlopen("http://www.soccerstats.com/leagues.asp").read(),"html")
TableLeague =  soup.find("table", {"class" : "trow8"})
print TableLeague
#\here I just want to grab country name
for row in TableLeague("tr")[2:]:
       col = row.findAll("td")
# I try to identify errors
       try:
          country = col[1].a.string.stip()
          FLeague.write(country+"\n")
       except Exception as e:
          ErrorFile.write (country + ";" + str(e)+";"+str(col)+"\n")
          pass
    #close the files
FLeague.close
FData.close
ErrorFile.close

Answer 1

第一个问题来自：

TableLeague("tr")[2:]

TableLeague此处为None，因为table类没有trow8个元素。而是使用id属性来查找所需的表元素：

TableLeague = soup.find("table", {"id": "btable"})

此外，您可能需要strip()而不是stip()：col[1].a.string.stip()。

并且，要关闭文件，请调用close()方法。替换：

FLeague.close
FData.close
ErrorFile.close

使用：

FLeague.close()
FData.close()
ErrorFile.close()

或者，更好的是，使用with context manager来处理文件 - 您不需要显式关闭文件。
