Please help Google Scholar: --query does not work #57

MatteoRiva95 commented 1 year ago

Good morning,

I am trying to download a pdf of a science paper with this code line:

!python -m PyPaperBot --query="10.1038/s41598-023-43091-0" --scholar-pages=2 --dwn-dir="path/to/download/dir"

The query string is a DOI and if you search for it in Google Scholar it does find only one paper (which is the one I am searching for). Unfortunately, the code line gives me this error:

_Query: 10.1038/s41598-023-43091-0

Google Scholar page 1 : 10 papers found Paper not found...

Google Scholar page 2 : 10 papers found Paper not found...

Work completed!_

I tried to use the title of the paper, but it does not work. I tried the URL, but again it returns an error. How can I fix it? Can you help me please?

I am using Colab right now, Python 3.10 and I would like to use Google Scholar option and not Scihub.

Thank you so much in advance!

Matteo

Hi, sorry for the late reply, but PyPaperBot had been on standby until now. I've decided to resume development to improve it.

I've created a Telegram channel where you can suggest improvements, report bugs, or request custom data mining scripts. Feel free to join if you're interested with the following LINK

Thanks!
