Installing

clone the git repo and modify the cookies_house.py file with your login credentials as explained below Downloading Courses from Kodekloud

Basically, when you sign into a website normally, you use your credentials to identify yourself in a special way. This identity is then utilized for every other interaction and is temporarily kept in headers and cookies.

Use the same cookies and headers for all of your http requests, and you'll be good to go.

Use these steps to duplicate that:

• Go to the developer tools tab on your browser.
• visit kodekloud, then log in to your dashboard
• After logging in, select the network tab, then reload the page.
• You should now see a list of requests, with the top request being the actual site. We'll concentrate on that one because it contains the data with the identity we can use to scrape it with Python and BeautifulSoup.
• When you select "Copy" from the dashboard menu of the site request (the top one), choose "Copy as cURL" Like this:

• Then visit this website to transform cURL requests into python ones: https://curl.trillworks.com/
• Copy the headers object(dict) and cookies object(dict) generated then replace replace empty (cookies{} and headers{}) in the cookies_house.py file.
• ENJOY
