"No raw posts (<article> elements)" for nhkworld #29

Closed morbus closed 3 months ago

morbus commented 5 months ago

First time user. Python 3.11.6.

Installed with pip install git+https://github.com/moda20/facebook-scraper.git@master.

Used Firefox add-on Cookie Quick Manager to create facebook_cookies.json.

Using the following command: facebook-scraper --format json --filename facebook_nhkworld.json --pages 999999 --verbose --cookies facebook_cookies.json nhkworld --dump facebook-scraper-dump I'm just getting No raw posts (<article> elements) were found in this page. over and over again - like it's going through a pager, but not finding any results. I'm not seeing anything in the dump directory.

The problem happens to me as well. Facebook must have done a change recently.

It seems that the CLI is broken. You need to use mbasic.

@morbus Is it solved? I'm getting the same problem and I'm using Jupyter Notebook and mbasic... @moda20

@UlyssesZh @asheseux16 usually this means that your cookies are not rightfully extracted. you might need to visit all fb website versions to get the full cookies (18 lines usually). another thing would be to create a script instead of using the CLI as the latter is known to not work

@morbus I am closing this issue since it seems to be resolved. and as of now i am not working on the CLI version
