nonlogin method issue on Amazon web services about tvdatafeed HOT 11 CLOSED

since it uses selenium login, on any web services it will work in nologin mode only

from tvdatafeed.

so what is the alternative?

from tvdatafeed.

updated to latest version and token system works great. Issue sorted

from tvdatafeed.

I solved it just installing the git version

from tvdatafeed.

I am trying to run this on AWS lambda but getting following error:

[ERROR] FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/sbx_user1051/.tv_datafeed/'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/task/lambda_function.py", line 8, in lambda_handler
    tv = TvDatafeed(username =username, password=password)
  File "/opt/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/tvDatafeed/main.py", line 142, in init
    self.__assert_dir()
  File "/opt/python/lib/python3.8/site-packages/tvDatafeed/main.py", line 76, in __assert_dir
    os.mkdir(self.path)END

I think it is not ablle to install chromedriver. maybe I need to change some path..I am stuck here..any help/guidance on this.

from tvdatafeed.

before initializing tvdatafeed, run the following code-

import os
from tvDatafeed import TvDatafeed,Interval
app_dir=os.mkdir(os.path.join(os.path.expanduser("~"), ".tv_datafeed/"))
if not os.path.exists(app_dir):
    os.mkdir(app_dir)

tv=TvDatafeed()

# your code goes here

This will only work without username and password. You will be able to download most of the data without logging in

from tvdatafeed.

thanks for such qucik response. I am still not able to get past the same error;

can you check if below works

import os
import tempfile
from tvDatafeed import TvDatafeed,Interval

app_dir=tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()
if not os.path.exists(app_dir):
    os.mkdir(app_dir)

TvDatafeed.path=app_dir
tv=TvDatafeed()

# your code goes here

still getting error.. I will try to initialize chromium driver and pass its path to chromedrive_path parameter in tvdatafeed. hoping that will resolve the issue. But now facing issue with chromium on python3.8.
if you are able to initialize tvdatafeed on aws lambda do let me know.. and if i am able to solve this i will surely post here.

I am using this on heroku dyno and its working fine. I am not familiar with aws lambda, looks like it has read only file system and does not support creating directories.

The issue seems in creating the temporary directory. Without login chromedriver is not required.
To fix this try creating some folder which you can access with script and set its path in tvdatafeed.

app_dir="any_folder_which_can_be_accessed_by_script"
if not os.path.exists(app_dir):
    os.mkdir(app_dir)

TvDatafeed.path=app_dir

from tvdatafeed.

on aws lambda /tmp is writeable

app_dir = "/tmp/.tv_datafeed/"
if not os.path.exists(app_dir):
    os.mkdir(app_dir)

TvDatafeed.path = app_dir
