Google Reviews Parser

This is a simple script to parse Google Reviews based on a search string.

Limitations

This script was written in Pakistan so it may not be usable outside of Pakistan due to different page layout and elements. For example, I did not face any cookie consent popups while writing this.

Usage

1. Install requirements using pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Navigate to the Parser directory
3. Run the script using python parse.py
4. Enter the search string when prompted
5. Wait for the script to complete running
6. Reviews will be saved in a CSV file named reviews.csv in the same directory where you run the script from

Certificate Errors

If you get a certificate error, you can ignore it. The script will still work. Or you can install the Selenium Wire certifcate to get rid of the error.

Additional Data

If you need to parse additional data, simply add the corresponding header and the necessary array navigation in the settings.py file.
