I need your help. I’m working on a telegram bot which sends me all the sales from amazon.
It works well but this function doesn’t work properly. I have always the same error that, however, blocks the script
imgs_str = img_div.img.get(‘data-a-dynamic-image’) # a string in Json format
AttributeError: ‘NoneType’ object has no attribute ‘img’
def take_image(soup):
img_div = soup.find(id="imgTagWrapperId")
imgs_str = img_div.img.get('data-a-dynamic-image') # a string in Json format
# convert to a dictionary
imgs_dict = json.loads(imgs_str)
#each key in the dictionary is a link of an image, and the value shows the size (print all the dictionay to inspect)
num_element = 0
first_link = list(imgs_dict.keys())[num_element]
return first_link
I still don’t understand how to solve this issue.
Thanks for All!

From the looks of the error,
soup.find
didn’t work.Have you tried using
images = soup.findAll("img",{"id":"imgTagWrapperId"})
This will return a list
Images are not inserted in HTML Page they are linked to it so you need wait until uploaded. Here i will give you two options;
1-) (not recommend cause there may be a margin of error) simply; you can wait until the image is loaded(for this you can use "time.sleep()"
2-)(recommend) I would rather use Selenium Web Driver. You also have to wait when you use selenium, but the good thing is that selenium has a unique function for this job.
I will show how make it with selenium;
