HTML table extractor

Turn every table on a page into JSON. Header cells become keys, so each row arrives as a record you can load straight into a dataframe or a database.

How it works

What this tool does

  • Each table returns its caption, header row, raw rows and — when headers exist — an array of keyed records.
  • All tables on the page are extracted at once, in document order.
  • Cell text is whitespace-normalised, so line breaks and indentation in the markup do not leak into your data.
  • Works on the messy tables real sites ship: no thead, th scattered through the body, nested markup inside cells.
With Irmu

When you also need to fetch the page

A browser cannot fetch arbitrary URLs. Irmu returns the HTML — rendering, proxies and retries included — and you run the same extraction over it.

crawl_and_extract.py
# 1. Fetch the page with Irmu — rendering, proxies and retries handled for you
# 2. Extract the fields you need locally

import os, json, requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

resp = requests.get(
    "https://app.irmu.com/api/crawl",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['IRMU_API_KEY']}"},
    params={"url": "https://store.example.com/products/acme-headphones", "render": "true"},
    timeout=60,
)
resp.raise_for_status()

soup = BeautifulSoup(resp.text, "html.parser")

data = {
    "name": soup.select_one("h1").get_text(strip=True),
    "price": soup.select_one(".price").get_text(strip=True),
    "reviews": [r.get_text(strip=True) for r in soup.select(".review")],
}

print(json.dumps(data, indent=2))
Code examples

Do the same thing in your own pipeline

The equivalent extraction with the standard HTML parser in each language.

# pip install beautifulsoup4

import json
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

soup = BeautifulSoup(html, "html.parser")

tables = []
for table in soup.find_all("table"):
    rows = [[c.get_text(strip=True) for c in tr.find_all(["th", "td"])] for tr in table.find_all("tr")]
    headers = rows.pop(0) if rows and table.find("th") else []
    tables.append({
        "headers": headers,
        "rows": rows,
        "records": [dict(zip(headers, r)) for r in rows] if headers else None,
    })

data = {"tables": tables}

# Or, for data analysis: pandas.read_html(html) returns a DataFrame per table.

print(json.dumps(data, indent=2))
