How to retrieve user_reviews? #33

Open m0wer opened 7 months ago

m0wer commented 7 months ago

User reviews are always null with the default command:

touch results.csv && docker run -v $PWD/example-queries.txt:/example-queries -v $PWD/results.csv:/results.csv gosom/google-maps-scraper -depth 1 -input /example-queries -results /results.csv -exit-on-inactivity 3m

Am I doing something wrong? Is it possible to collect all user reviews of a place?

Thanks!

@m0wer are you able to get the reviews per rating correctly? until a few weeks ago it worked, but now I only get 0 or every star. user_reviews also worked until a few weeks ago and now stopped working for me?

If you are interested, I have raised a pull request to resolve the issue. You can just make the changes based on it.

@arceushui thanks for the fixed.

Hi, I tried a previous version and it worked perfectly until it stopped showing the user_reviews field. I have downloaded version 1.1.3 which I understand fixes this problem, but in all rows it still returns "null". The review_count, review_rating and reviews_per_rating fields are displayed. Does it work correctly and am I doing something wrong?

arceushui commented 6 months ago

What is the field name that you are having issue?

buscandomelavida commented 6 months ago

user_reviews field

DukeLe97 commented 6 months ago

i am having the same issue "user_reviews:null"

iamsad5566 commented 6 months ago

@DukeLe97 , @buscandomelavida I sent a PR to solve the above issue, you could take it a shot

DukeLe97 commented 5 months ago

Thanks for your contribution @iamsad5566 , is there any way to get more user_reviews? Now, it only gets 8 user_reviews per place

MartiRiusO commented 5 months ago

@iamsad5566 the PR isn't working if you change the example-queries. had you seen it?
