Scroll Down Google Reviews With Selenium

I'm trying to scrape the reviews from this link: https://www.google.com/search?q=google+reviews+2nd+chance+treatment+40th+street&rlz=1C1JZAP_enUS697US697&oq=google+reviews+

Solution 1:

Here is the logic that you can use without using the javascript scroll down. Simple and effective by using the location_once_scrolled_into_view method which will scroll to the element.

As part of logic below, we are scrolling to the last review, and then checking if we loaded the number of reviews desired as per the request.

Imports Needed:

from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait

change the desiredReviewsCount variable value as per your requirement in the below code.

wait = WebDriverWait(driver,10)
url = "https://www.google.com/search?q=google+reviews+2nd+chance+treatment+40th+street&rlz=1C1JZAP_enUS697US697&oq=google+reviews+2nd+chance+treatment+40th+street&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64.6183j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#lrd=0x872b7179b68e33d5:0x24b5517d86a95f89,1"
driver.get(url)
x=0
desiredReviewsCount=30
wait.until(EC.presence_of_all_elements_located((By.XPATH,"//div[@class='gws-localreviews__general-reviews-block']//div[@class='WMbnJf gws-localreviews__google-review']")))
while x<desiredReviewsCount:
    driver.find_element_by_xpath("(//div[@class='gws-localreviews__general-reviews-block']//div[@class='WMbnJf gws-localreviews__google-review'])[last()]").location_once_scrolled_into_view
    x = len(driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[@class='gws-localreviews__general-reviews-block']//div[@class='WMbnJf gws-localreviews__google-review']"))

print (len(driver.find_elements_by_xpath("//div[@class='gws-localreviews__general-reviews-block']//div[@class='WMbnJf gws-localreviews__google-review']")))
