NewsHound is a Python 3 module that was designed to perform high quality news and article extraction for sources in multiple languages.
For instance NewsHound cleanly parses article content from the BBC in English, the Dainik Bhaskar in Hindi, the People's Daily in Chinese, the Malayala Manorama in Malayalam and the Khaosod in Thai.
The builtin extraction architecture is designed to systematically parse specific data elements from the underlying navigation structure of either an online web page or an offline file containing HTML content.
These data elements are:
- Title/Headline
- Description/Summary
- Keywords
- Name(s) of Author(s)
- Main Text/Content
- ISO Language
- Language Name
- Published Date
- Modified Date
- Canonical HREF
- Top Image HREF
NewsHound requires Python >=3.6. This package can be installed using pip3.
pip3 install newshoundFor detailed information on NewsHound please refer to the documentation.
The maintainers of NewsHound have developed and tested multiple predefined extraction modules for various news sources around the world. These specific extractors were developed to ensure consistent and accurate parsing from the news sources being queried. Additional sources will be added periodically to this predefined extraction list.
