Question

I have a list which is in this certain format.

[u' ', u'Address :',u'Sadar Bazaar',u'new Delhi,India',u' ',u'Name :',u'Saun-Jean',u' ',u'Occupation :',u'Developer',u'Hacker',u' ']

I want to Insert Records into Database.

Here is my thought ,How to do it.

1) Take all items between two u' '

2) The second item u'Address' defines the field of the Database and rest up-to next u' ' defines the data.
like

 'Address :','Sadar Bazaar','new Delhi,India'

3)Repeat this procedure for all Items.

There may be other good ideas.

But i don’t know how to do it in Python.Can someone help me do it??

Edit:
Here is how i constructed the List:

for tr in browser.find_elements_by_xpath("//tbody//tbody//tr"):
 tds=tr.find_elements_by_tag_name('td')
 if tds:
  data.append([td.text for td in tds])

Answer 1

lis=[u' ', u'Address :',u'Sadar Bazaar',u'new Delhi,India',u' ',u'Name :',u'Saun-Jean',u' ',u'Occupation :',u'Developer',u'Hacker',u' ']
strs=' '.join(str(x).strip() for x in lis if str(x).strip())
lis1=strs.split(':')
dic={}
for i,x in enumerate(lis1[:-1]):
    if x.strip():
        temp_lis=x.strip().split()
        if i+1 <len(lis1)-1:
            dic[temp_lis[-1]]=' '.join(lis1[i+1].split()[:-1])
        else:
            dic[temp_lis[-1]]=' '.join(lis1[i+1].split())

print dic 

output:

{'Occupation': 'Developer Hacker', 'Name': 'Saun-Jean', 'Address': 'Sadar Bazaar new Delhi,India'}
