Use of find next sibling function in beautiful soup

This recipes explains that next sibling method is used to iterate over an element’s siblings that precede it in the element. This function is used to find the succeeding sibling of a tag/element.

Recipe Objective - Use of ".find_next_sibling" function in beautiful soup?

The ".find_next_sibling" method uses ".next_siblings" to iterate over an element’s siblings that precede it in the tree.

This function is used to find the succeeding sibling of a tag/element.

It only returns the first match whose next to the tag/element.

Steps:-

  1. Import necessary modules.
  2. Load an HTML document.
  3. Pass the HTML document into the Beautifulsoup() function.
  4. Find out the tags which have multiple siblings and use that inside the function.
  5. Then use that variable to find the previous sibling using the ".find_next_sibling" method.

Example:-

import requests
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup as bs

# load the projectpro webpage content
r = requests.get('https://www.projectpro.io/')

# convert to beautiful soup
soup = bs(r.content)

# printing our web page
print(soup.prettify())

first_link = soup.find("link")
first_link

first_link.find_next_sibling("link")
