web scraping with cpp

To perform web scraping in C++, you can follow these steps:

  1. Choose a C++ library for web scraping, such as C++ Requests, libcurl, or cpp-httplib.

  2. Install the chosen library and its dependencies.

  3. Use the library to make an HTTP GET request to the target website's URL.

  4. Receive the HTML content of the webpage in the HTTP response.

  5. Parse the HTML content to extract the desired data using a library like Gumbo, which is a pure C HTML parsing library.

  6. Traverse the parsed HTML to locate specific elements or data within the webpage.

  7. Extract the desired data and store it for further processing or analysis.

  8. Handle any errors or exceptions that may occur during the web scraping process.

By following these steps, you can effectively perform web scraping in C++ to extract data from websites.
