Python 3.6.5 tools for HubSpot blog objects

externalBlawgDawg.py - Turn any external blog into a HubSpot importable XML file
blogFeaturedImageSoup.py - Soup featured images from an external blog, upload them to the File Manager, set them as featured for the posts respective HubSpot equivalent

A Python python to turn any external blog into an XML file which you can import into HubSpot
REQUIRES
BeautifulSoup
lxml

USAGE
This Python python requires manually setting a few variables to make sure we can scrub external content, and get all the content and data we need to import a blog into HubSpot. It will grab post titles, urls, meta descriptions, authors, tags and post bodies, and turn them all into importable <items>

blogRootUrl - Root URL of the external blog
blogPosts- Python list of blog urls to import
soup. - There are 5 soup. statements which require a selector of the html elements(s) you are getting to grab content from. See the BeautifulSoup docs to learn more about modifieing these selectors depending on your needs

[html from scrubbed post]
>>>>>
[xml output form externalBlawgDawg.py]

soup.find('title') - you should not need to touch this soup. Finds and prints the <item> <title> to blog.xml

<title>This is the post title</title>
>>>>>
<title>This is the post title</title> 

soup.find('meta', attrs={'name':'description'}) - you should not need to touch this soup. Finds and prints the <item> <excerpt:encoded> to blog.xml

<meta name="description" content="This is the meta description"> 
>>>>>
<excerpt:encoded><![CDATA[This is the meta description]]<excerpt:encoded>

soup.find('a', attrs={'rel':'author'}) - you likely need to change this soup. Finds the author and prints the <item> <dc:creator>, as well as creates top level <wp:author> tags in blog.xml

<a href="link" rel="author">Author</a>
>>>>>
<dc:creator>Author</dc:creator>
&
<wp:author>
    <wp:author_display_name><![CDATA[Author]]></wp:author_display_name>
    <wp:author_login><![CDATA[Author]]></wp:author_login>
</wp:author>

soup.find_all('a', attrs={'rel':'category tag'}) - you likely need to change this soup. Finds the tags of a post and prints the <item> <categories> (sets nicename, etc.) to blog.xml

<a href="link" rel="category tag">Tag 1</a>
<a href="link" rel="category tag">Tag 2</a>
>>>>>
<category domain="category" nicename="tag-1"><![CDATA[Tag 1]]></category>
<category domain="category" nicename="tag-2"><![CDATA[Tag 2]]></category>

soup.select('.entry-content')[0] - you likely need to change this soup. Finds the content of a post and prints the <item> <content:encoded> to blog.xml

<div class="entry-content">This is the post body</div>
>>>>>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[This is the post body]]</content:encoded><

XML setup which happens on its own:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<rss>
  <channel>
  <link>!!blog root url link from blogRootUrl variable!!</link>
  <
    !!<wp:author>s build here!!
  >
    <item>
        <link>!!post link from blogPosts library!!</link>
        <wp:post_id>!!set automatically!!</wp:post_id>
        <wp:status>publish</wp:status>
        <wp:post_type>post</wp:post_type>
        <
            !!The above soups fill in XML here!!
        >
    </item>
    ... !!for every post in blogPosts library, the above <item> is created!!
  </channel>
</rss>

USAGE
This Python python requires manually setting 4 variables: accessToken, blogRootUrl, featuredImageSelector & postsToSoupScrubKitten

accessToken - An access_token for the portal you want to blogFeaturedImageSoup
blogRootUrl- The external blogs root url featuredImageSelector - The CSS selector which select the external blogs featured image (ex. .featured-image img)
