AirPeace Flight Information Web Scraper

✈️ Python wrapper for https://flyairpeace.com/ ✈️

Overview

This project is a Python-based web scraper built to extract flight information from the AirPeace website. It provides a convenient way to access flight details such as flight duration, flight fare, departure time, estimated time of arrival, flight code. The scraper is implemented using Python and utilizes BeautifulSoup and Selenium for web scraping tasks.

Installation

To use this web scraper, follow these steps:

1. Clone or download the repository to your local machine:

pip install git+https://github.com/ctoanadu/airpeace_scraper.git

2. Install the required dependencies using pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Once dependencies are installed, you can import the AirPeaceFlightCheck class from src.app_airpeace module in your Python code.

Usage

To use the scraper, create an instance of the AirPeaceFlightCheck class with the required parameters and call the get_flight_info() method to retrieve flight information. Here's an example:

from src.app_airpeace import AirPeaceFlightCheck

airpeace = AirPeaceFlightCheck("LOS", "LGW", "16.04.2024", "ROUND_TRIP", "20.04.2024")

flight_info = airpeace.get_flight_info()
print(flight_info)

Output

The get_flight_info() method returns flight information in a structured format. Here's an example of the return:
