I have a target artist and would like to fetch its correspondent id, like so:
import re
target = 'Portishead'
videos = ['Portishead - Roads (Vg1jyL3cr60)', 'Portishead - Roads - (WQYsGWh_vpE)', 'Need For Speed (Linkin Park - Roads Untraveled) Music Video (7Lkq7bf6kU8)', 'Lawson - Roads (I-SOaSU0ieA)', 'Vargas & Lagola - Roads (Audio) (Kd3s20GmPVE)']
for item in videos:
artist = item.split('-')[0]
# here I get whats inside parenthesis, not always an id
video_id = re.findall('\(([^)]+)', item)
# and here the id, which is always the last split item
id_ = (video_id[-1])
if artist == target:
print id_
but my if condition is not working for the target artist. I print no results.
what is the best way of achieving this using a for loop or otherwise, considering that the real list is very large?
I want to fetch above "Vg1jyL3cr60"
