In this assignment, I would summarize 2 webpages to translate them into readble words by html2text and use these wordcloud. And I will put it on my website and update it at 9:00 A.M. everyday.
Use git clone to clone the repository from github to local sever.
- html2text should be installed to convert html files to readable text files. Below is the install code.
cd ~/bin
git clone https://github.com/aaronsw/html2text
cd html2text
mv html2text.py ~/bin.
- wordcloud could be used transform words to a image. Below is the install code.
cd ~/bin
git clone https://github.com/amueller/word_cloud.git
As for people who don't have permission to install wordcloud , you should modify your directions to
python -m pip install --user wordcloud
to install it locally.
- Make a directory
~/public_html, create a html file and edited it like below:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Margery0011</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Website</h1>
