from selenium import webdriver       selenium.common.exceptions import nosuchelementexception selenium.webdriver.common.by import selenium.webdriver.support.ui import webdriverwait selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions ec

^^ modules have imported. don't know how add in nosuchelementexception code either. here code:

chrome_path = r"/users/jack/desktop/other/downloads/software_and_programs/chromedriver" browser = webdriver.chrome(chrome_path) youtuber_home_page_url = "https://www.youtube.com/user/google/videos" patience_time = 60 load_more_button_xpath = '//*[@id="browse-itemsprimary"]/li[2]/button/span/span[2]'   def waitforload(inputxpath):     wait = webdriverwait(browser, patience_time)     wait.until(ec.presence_of_element_located((by.xpath, inputxpath)))  loadmorebuttonexists = true while loadmorebuttonexists:     try:         waitforload(load_more_button_xpath)         webdriverwait(browser, patience_time)         loadmorebutton = browser.find_element_by_partial_link_text('load more')         #loadmorebutton = browser.find_element_by_xpath(load_more_button_xpath)         loadmorebutton.click()     except:         print 'we have loaded every video youtuber. scrape video content\n'         loadmorebuttonexists = false

i have used xpath way , still seems not work. have commented out in code above. awesome if on this. haven't been able find answers. believe can done selenium, if not should use?

you can use following code scrolling

from selenium import webdriver       selenium.common.exceptions import nosuchelementexception selenium.webdriver.common.by import selenium.webdriver.support.ui import webdriverwait selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions ec import time   #browser = webdriver.firefox()#chrome('./chromedriver.exe') youtuber_home_page_url = "https://www.youtube.com/user/google/videos" patience_time = 60 load_more_button_xpath = '//*[@id="browse-itemsprimary"]/li[2]/button/span/span[2]'   driver = webdriver.chrome('./chromedriver.exe') driver.get(youtuber_home_page_url)  while true:     try:         loadmorebutton = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[contains(@aria-label,'load more')]")         time.sleep(2)         loadmorebutton.click()         time.sleep(5)     except exception e:         print e         break print "complete" time.sleep(10) driver.quit()
