Python Weekend Tasks

Task:1
Consider you have many photos in a folder. Check their Properties. In Properties, you have created date. Move all photos which have specific Created Date to a different folder.

import os
import shutil
import datetime

source_folder = r"/home/guru/Desktop/Guru/Python/images"

destination_folder = r"/home/guru/Desktop/Guru/Python/images2"

target_date = "2025-01-11"

os.makedirs(destination_folder, exist_ok=True)

for file_name in os.listdir(source_folder):
    file_path = os.path.join(source_folder, file_name)

    if os.path.isfile(file_path):
        created_time = os.stat(file_path).st_mtime
        created_date = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(created_time).strftime("%Y-%m-%d")

        if created_date == target_date:
            shutil.move(file_path, os.path.join(destination_folder, file_name))
            print(f"Moved: {file_name}")

print("Task completed.")

Summary:
1) Imports Required Modules → Uses os for file handling, shutil for moving files, and datetime for date formatting.

2) Defines Source and Destination Folders → Specifies where the images are stored and where they should be moved.

3) Sets Target Date → Filters files based on their last modified date (formatted as YYYY-MM-DD).

4) Creates Destination Folder If It Doesn’t Exist → Ensures the folder is available before moving files.

5) Loops Through Files in the Source Folder → Checks each file one by one.

6) Extracts the Last Modified Date → Converts the file’s last modified timestamp into a human-readable format.

7) Compares the File's Date with the Target Date → If they match, the file is selected for moving.

8) Moves the File to the Destination Folder → Transfers matching files to the specified location.

9) Prints Status Messages → Displays which files were moved and confirms completion.

Task:2
Write a program to open google.com and search for any keyword. Try to get all the links given by Google. [Use Selenium Module to complete this]

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
import time

driver_path = '/usr/local/bin/chromedriver'

service = Service(driver_path)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)

driver.get("http://google.com")

time.sleep(2)

search_box = driver.find_element(By.NAME, "q")
search_box.send_keys("python interview questions")
search_box.send_keys(Keys.RETURN)

time.sleep(5)

search_results = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "h3")
while not search_results:
    time.sleep(2)
    search_results = driver.find_elements(By.CSS_SELECTOR, "h3")

for result in search_results:
    try:
        parent = result.find_element(By.XPATH, "./ancestor::a")
        link = parent.get_attribute("href")
        if link:
            print(link)
    except Exception as e:
        print(f"Skipping result due to error: {e}")
        continue

driver.quit()

Explanation:

1. Import required modules.
2. Set Up WebDriver with its path.
3. Open Google
4. Locate Search Box and Enter keyword to be searched then submit using RETURN.
5. Wait for results to load for 5 seconds - time.sleep(5)
6. Find Search result titles containing <h3> tags.
7. try-except block is used to find and handle errors.If any error occurs it will print the error.
8. Extract Parent <a> Tag using XPath & Get href attribute for Links.
9. Then Close the Browser using driver.quit().
