find/select+get - extract value/text from a bs4 Tag

##### find/select & get to extract value/text from a bs4 Tag #####
### returns a default value [ or `None` ]  if nothing is found ###
## [ because chaining .find.. with .get..  might raise errors ] ##
## [ examples at bottom ] ##

########################### VERSION 1 : USING .find ###########################
def find_get(tag, targetAttr='', defaultVal=None, **findArgs):
    tag = tag.find(**findArgs) if findArgs else tag
    if tag is None: return defaultVal
    if targetAttr: return tag.get(targetAttr, defaultVal)
    return tag.get_text(' ').strip()

######################## VERSION 2 : USING .select_one ########################
def select_get(tagSoup, selector='', targetAttr='', defaultVal=None):
    ta, dv = str(targetAttr).strip(), defaultVal
    el = tagSoup.select_one(selector) if selector else tagSoup
    return (el.get(ta,dv) if ta else el.get_text(' ').strip()) if el else dv

################################### Examples of usage ###################################
## soup.get_text(' ').strip() # <--> # find_get(soup) # <--> # select_get(soup)

## soup.find('a', {'id':'close_tab'}).get('href') # <-->
## soup.select_one('a#close_tab').get('href') # same as:
# find_get(soup, 'href', name='a', attrs={'id':'close_tab'}) # <-->
# select_get(soup, 'a#close_tab', 'href')

## soup.find('input', {'class':'input1'}).get('value') # <-->
## soup.select_one('input.input1').get('value') # same as:
# find_get(soup, 'value', name='input', attrs={'class':'input1'}) # <-->
# select_get(soup, 'input.input1', 'value')

## soup.find('p', class_='a-class b-class').get_text(' ').strip() # <-->
## soup.select_one('p[class="a-class b-class"]').get_text(' ').strip() # same as:
# find_get(soup, name='p', class_='a-class b-class') # <-->
# select_get(soup, 'p[class="a-class b-class"]')
### NOTE: .select('p.a-class.b-class') will match
##### <p class="a-class b-class">...</p> # but also
##### <p class="a-class b-class c-class">...</p>
