Scrapy Selectors 选择器

1.参考

《用Python写网络爬虫》——2.2 三种网页抓取方法  re / lxml / BeautifulSoup

需要注意的是,lxml在内部实现中,实际上是将CSS选择器转换为等价的XPath选择器。

从结果中可以看出,在抓取我们的示例网页时,Beautiful Soup比其他两种方法慢了超过6倍之多。实际上这一结果是符合预期的,因为lxml和正则表达式模块都是C语言编写的,而BeautifulSoup``则是纯Python编写的。一个有趣的事实是,lxml表现得和正则表达式差不多好。由于lxml在搜索元素之前,必须将输入解析为内部格式,因此会产生额外的开销。而当抓取同一网页的多个特征时,这种初始化解析产生的开销就会降低,lxml也就更具竞争力。这真是一个令人惊叹的模块!

2.Scrapy Selectors 选择器

https://doc.scrapy.org/en/latest/topics/selectors.html#topics-selectors

  • BeautifulSoup缺点:慢
  • lxml:基于 ElementTree
  • Scrapy seletors: parsel library,构建于 lxml 库之上,这意味着它们在速度和解析准确性上非常相似。

.css() .xpath() 返回 SelectorList,即 a list of new selectors
.extract() .re() 提取 过滤 tag data

import scrapy

C:Program FilesAnaconda2Libsite-packagesscrapy\__init__.py

from scrapy.selector import Selector

C:Program FilesAnaconda2Libsite-packagesscrapyselector\__init__.py

from scrapy.selector.unified import *

C:Program FilesAnaconda2Libsite-packagesscrapyselectorunified.py

from parsel import Selector as _ParselSelector

class Selector(_ParselSelector, object_ref):

>>> from scrapy.selector import Selector
>>> from scrapy.http import HtmlResponse
如此导入 Selector,实例化 Selector 的时候第一个参数是 HtmlResponse 实例,如果要通过 str 实例化 Selector ,需要 sel = Selector(text=doc)

xx

In [926]: from parsel import Selector

In [927]: Selector?
Init signature: Selector(self, text=None, type=None, namespaces=None, root=None, base_url=None, _expr=None)
Docstring:
:class:`Selector` allows you to select parts of an XML or HTML text using CSS
or XPath expressions and extract data from it.

``text`` is a ``unicode`` object in Python 2 or a ``str`` object in Python 3

``type`` defines the selector type, it can be ``"html"``, ``"xml"`` or ``None`` (default).
If ``type`` is ``None``, the selector defaults to ``"html"``.

doc=u"""
<div class="quote" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/CreativeWork">
        <span class="text" itemprop="text">“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”</span>>>
        <span>by <small class="author" itemprop="author">Thomas A. Edison</small>
        <a href="/author/Thomas-A-Edison">(about)</a>
"""

sel = Selector(doc)

sel.css('div.quote')
[<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' quote ')]" data=u'<div class="quote" itemscope itemtype="h'>]

3.使用 scrapy shell 调试

G:pydatapycodescrapysplash_cnblogs>scrapy shell "http://quotes.toscrape.com/page/1/"

3.1Xpath VS CSS

对比

  CSS Xpath 备注
含有属性 response.css('div[class]') response.xpath('//div[@class]') css可以简写为 div.class 甚至 .class,div#abc 或 #abc 则对应于id=abc
匹配属性值 response.css('div[class="quote"]') response.xpath('//div[@class="quote"]') response.xpath('//small[text()="Albert Einstein"]')
匹配部分属性值 response.css('div[class*="quo"]') response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"quo")]') response.xpath('//small[contains(text(),"Einstein")]')
提取属性值 response.css('small::attr(class)') response.xpath('//small/@class') css里面text排除在attr以外,所以不支持上面两个过滤text???
提取文字 response.css('small::text') response.xpath('//small/text()')  
       

使用

In [135]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]').extract_first()
In [122]: response.css('small.author').extract_first()
Out[122]: u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>'

In [136]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/text()').extract_first()
In [123]: response.css('small.author::text').extract_first()
Out[123]: u'Albert Einstein'

In [137]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/@class').extract_first()  #class也是属性
In [124]: response.css('small.author::attr(class)').extract_first()
Out[124]: u'author'

In [138]: response.xpath('//small[@class="author"]/@itemprop').extract_first()
In [125]: response.css('small.author::attr(itemprop)').extract_first()
Out[125]: u'author' 

class 是一个特殊属性,允许多值  class="row header-box"

# 匹配多值中的某一个值
In [228]: response.css('div.row') Out[228]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' row ')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box"> '>, <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' row ')]" data=u'<div class="row"> <div class="col-md'>] In [232]: response.css('div.ro') Out[232]: []
# 整个class属性值,匹配全部字符串 In [
226]: response.css('div[class="row"]') Out[226]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class = 'row']" data=u'<div class="row"> <div class="col-md'>]

 In [240]: response.xpath('//div[@class="row header-box"]')
 Out[240]: [<Selector xpath='//div[@class="row header-box"]' data=u'<div class="row header-box"> '>]


# 整个class属性值,匹配部分字符串
In [229]: response.css('div[class*="row"]')
Out[229]:
[<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'row')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box">
           '>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'row')]" data=u'<div class="row">
    <div class="col-md'>]

In [230]: response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"row")]')
Out[230]:
[<Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"row")]' data=u'<div class="row header-box">
           '>,
 <Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"row")]' data=u'<div class="row">
    <div class="col-md'>]

In [234]: response.css('div[class*="w h"]')
Out[234]: [<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::div[@class and contains(@class, 'w h')]" data=u'<div class="row header-box">
           '>]

In [235]: response.xpath('//div[contains(@class,"w h")]')
Out[235]: [<Selector xpath='//div[contains(@class,"w h")]' data=u'<div class="row header-box">
           '>]

3.2提取数据

  • 提取data

  selectorList / selector.extract(),extract_frist()

    selector.extract() 返回一个str,selector.extract_first() 报错

    selectorList.extract() 对每一个selector执行selector.extract,返回 list of str,selectorList.extract_frist() 取前面list的第一个。

  • 提取data同时过滤

  selectorList / selector.re(r'xxx'),re_frist(r'xxx')

    selector.re() 返回 list,selector.re_first() 取第一个str

    selectorList.re() 对每一个selector执行selector.re,每个list结果(注意并非每个selector都会match)合并为一个list,selectorList.re_first()取前面合并list的第一个str。。。

使用 extract

In [21]: response.css('.author')  #内部转为 xpath,返回 SelectorList 实例
Out[21]:
[<Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>,
 <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]" data=u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">'>]

In [22]: response.css('.author').extract()  #提取上面的 data 部分,对 SelectorList 中的每个 Selector 执行 extract(),
Out[22]:
[u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">J.K. Rowling</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Jane Austen</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Marilyn Monroe</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Andrxe9 Gide</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Thomas A. Edison</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Eleanor Roosevelt</small>',
 u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Steve Martin</small>']

In [23]: response.css('.author').extract_first()  #只取第一个,可能返回 None ,可能报错 response.css('.author')[0].extract()
Out[23]: u'<small class="author" itemprop="author">Albert Einstein</small>'

In [24]: response.css('.author::text').extract_first()  #定位到 tag 内部的 text
Out[24]: u'Albert Einstein'

使用 re

In [46]: response.css('.author::text')[0]
Out[46]: <Selector xpath=u"descendant-or-self::*[@class and contains(concat(' ', normalize-space(@class), ' '), ' author ')]/text()" data=u'Albert Einstein'>

In [47]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re(r'w+')
Out[47]: [u'Albert', u'Einstein']

In [48]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re_first(r'w+')
Out[48]: u'Albert'

In [49]: response.css('.author::text')[0].re(r'((w+)s(w+))')  #按照左边括号顺序输出
Out[49]: [u'Albert Einstein', u'Albert', u'Einstein']
