but I want it in a dictionary with this format:

Code:

bigbadwolf.htlm: https://www.blah.com, http://www.blahblah.com, http://www.blahblahblah.com
maryhadalittlelamb.html: http://www.red.com, https://www.redyellow.com, http://www.zigzag.com
time.html: https://www.est.com, http://www.pst.com, https://www.cst.com

As you can see, there will be several urls inside of an html doc so there will be keys that can contain many values(urls).

Is each value of the dictionary:
(a) a list (or array) of URLs? or
(b) a comma-delimited string of URLs?

If you want (a), then try something like the following:

Code:

tut_links = {}
for subdir, dirs, files in os.walk('./html/tutorials/blah'):
    for tut in files:
        if tut.endswith(".html"):
            tut_links[tut] = []
            fpath = os.path.join("./html/tutorials/blah", tut)
            content = open(fpath, "r").read()
            file = BeautifulSoup(content, 'lxml')
            for links in file.find_all('a'):
                urls = links.get('href')
                tut_links[tut].append(urls)

Disclaimer: Completely untested; I don't have the module at the moment.

dh_python

DH_PYTHON(1)							     Debhelper							      DH_PYTHON(1)

NAME

       dh_python - calculates Python dependencies and adds postinst and prerm Python scripts (deprecated)

SYNOPSIS

       dh_python [debhelperoptions] [-n] [-V version] [moduledirs...]

DESCRIPTION

       Note: This program is deprecated. You should use dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral instead. This program will do nothing if debian/pycompat or a
       Python-Version control file field exists.

       dh_python is a debhelper program that is responsible for generating the ${python:Depends} substitutions and adding them to substvars files.
       It will also add a postinst and a prerm script if required.

       The program will look at Python scripts and modules in your package, and will use this information to generate a dependency on python, with
       the current major version, or on pythonX.Y if your scripts or modules need a specific python version. The dependency will be substituted
       into your package's control file wherever you place the token ${python:Depends}.

       If some modules need to be byte-compiled at install time, appropriate postinst and prerm scripts will be generated. If already byte-
       compiled modules are found, they are removed.

       If you use this program, your package should build-depend on python.

OPTIONS

       module dirs
	   If your package installs Python modules in non-standard directories, you can make dh_python check those directories by passing their
	   names on the command line. By default, it will check /usr/lib/site-python, /usr/lib/$PACKAGE, /usr/share/$PACKAGE,
	   /usr/lib/games/$PACKAGE, /usr/share/games/$PACKAGE and /usr/lib/python?.?/site-packages.

	   Note: only /usr/lib/site-python, /usr/lib/python?.?/site-packages and the extra names on the command line are searched for binary (.so)
	   modules.

       -V version
	   If the .py files your package ships are meant to be used by a specific pythonX.Y version, you can use this option to specify the
	   desired version, such as 2.3. Do not use if you ship modules in /usr/lib/site-python.

       -n, --noscripts
	   Do not modify postinst/prerm scripts.
