I want to fetch stock information from Moneycontrol site. I want to fill stock name in searchbox.
html code:

<input class="txtsrchbox FL" id="search_str" 
 onkeyup="getAutosuggesionHeader('#form_topsearch');" 
 onclick="getAutosuggesionHeader('#form_topsearch');" 
 placeholder="Search Quotes, News, NAVs" name="search_str" 
 value="" type="text" autocomplete="off">

How can i achieve this using beautifulsoup.

I have tried following code:

from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup

import urllib

post_params = 'value' : 'SBIN' 

post_args = urllib.parse.urlencode(post_params).encode("utf-8")

url = 'https://www.moneycontrol.com'

fp = urllib.request.urlopen(url, post_args)

soup = BeautifulSoup(fp)

I'm not familiar with financial info so this might not be of use, but maybe it is, or maybe QHarr can work off of it. Looks like it gives back some value for (t:time?, cp:closing price? v:volume? ap:???)

So I noticed you can get some response from the chart data, however it requires to enter a parameter to query (ie. a sc_id value, in this case for SBIN, is SBI.)

So I needed a way though to get that sc_id value, and saw they have a "suggested" text search return that can be accessed to enter your search word (ie: "sbin"), to get back that sc_id.

So here's a little script that was able to get some info back for SBIN. Hopefully this can get some use out of it:

import requests
import json

headers = 'user-agent': 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/72.0.3626.119 Safari/537.36'


# Enter search text
query_input = input('Enter Search Text: ')

#Get suggested sc_id
suggest_query_url = 'https://www.moneycontrol.com/mccode/common/autosuggestion_solr.php'

query = 
'classic': 'true',
'query': query_input,
'type': '1',
'format': 'json',
'callback': 'suggest1'


# Pull out the sc_id
suggested_response = requests.get(suggest_query_url , headers=headers, params=query).text
suggested_response = suggested_response.split('(',1)[1]
suggested_response = suggested_response.rsplit(')',1)[0]

sc_id = json.loads(suggested_response)[0]['sc_id']


# Use the sc_id to get BSE and NSE data
request_url = 'https://www.moneycontrol.com/stocks/company_info/get_vwap_chart_data.php'
query = 'sc_did': sc_id

response = requests.get(request_url, headers=headers, params=query).json()

Output:

print (response)
