先发一下官方文档地址。http://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/
建议有时间可以看一下python包的文档。
Beautiful Soup 相比其他的html解析有个非常重要的优势。html会被拆解为对象处理。全篇转化为字典和数组。
相比正则解析的爬虫，省略了学习正则的高成本。
相比xpath爬虫的解析，同样节约学习时间成本。虽然xpath已经简单点了。（爬虫框架Scrapy就是使用xpath）
安装
linux下可以执行
apt-get install python-bs4也可以用python的安装包工具来安装
easy_install beautifulsoup4
pip install beautifulsoup4
使用简介
下面说一下BeautifulSoup 的使用。
解析html需要提取数据。其实主要有几点
1：获取指定tag的内容。
<p>hello, watsy</p><br><p>hello, beautiful soup.</p>2：获取指定tag下的属性。
<a href="http://blog.csdn.net/watsy">watsy's blog</a>
使用示例采用官方
html_doc = """
<html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head>
<body>
<p class="title"><b>The Dormouse's story</b></p>
<p class="story">Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were
<a href="http://example.com/elsie" class="sister" id="link1">Elsie</a>,
<a href="http://example.com/lacie" class="sister" id="link2">Lacie</a> and
<a href="http://example.com/tillie" class="sister" id="link3">Tillie</a>;
and they lived at the bottom of a well.</p>
<p class="story">...</p>
"""from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html_doc)
print(soup.prettify())
# <html>
# <head>
# <title>
# The Dormouse's story
# </title>
# </head>
# <body>
# <p class="title">
# <b>
# The Dormouse's story
# </b>
# </p>
# <p class="story">
# Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/elsie" id="link1">
# Elsie
# </a>
# ,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/lacie" id="link2">
# Lacie
# </a>
# and
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/tillie" id="link2">
# Tillie
# </a>
# ; and they lived at the bottom of a well.
# </p>
# <p class="story">
# ...
# </p>
# </body>
# </html>获取指定tag的内容
soup.title
# <title>The Dormouse's story</title>
soup.title.name
# u'title'
soup.title.string
# u'The Dormouse's story'
soup.title.parent.name
# u'head'
soup.p
# <p class="title"><b>The Dormouse's story</b></p>
soup.a
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/elsie" id="link1">Elsie</a>上面示例给出了4个方面
1：获取tag
soup.title
2：获取tag名称
soup.title.name
3：获取title tag的内容
soup.title.string
4：获取title的父节点tag的名称
soup.title.parent.name
怎么样，非常对象化的使用吧。
提取tag属性
下面要说一下如何提取href等属性。
soup.p['class']
# u'title'获取属性。方法是
soup.tag['属性名称']
<a href="http://blog.csdn.net/watsy">watsy's blog</a>代码是
soup.a['href']
查找与判断
接下来进入重要部分。全文搜索查找提取.
soup提供find与find_all用来查找。其中find在内部是调用了find_all来实现的。因此只说下find_all
def find_all(self, name=None, attrs={}, recursive=True, text=None,
limit=None, **kwargs):看参数。
第一个是tag的名称，第二个是属性。第3个选择递归，text是判断内容。limit是提取数量限制。**kwargs 就是字典传递了。。
举例使用。
tag名称
soup.find_all('b')
# [<b>The Dormouse's story</b>]
正则参数
import re
for tag in soup.find_all(re.compile("^b")):
print(tag.name)
# body
# b
for tag in soup.find_all(re.compile("t")):
print(tag.name)
# html
# title
列表
soup.find_all(["a", "b"])
# [<b>The Dormouse's story</b>,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/elsie" id="link1">Elsie</a>,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/lacie" id="link2">Lacie</a>,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/tillie" id="link3">Tillie</a>]
函数调用
def has_class_but_no_id(tag):
return tag.has_attr('class') and not tag.has_attr('id')
soup.find_all(has_class_but_no_id)
# [<p class="title"><b>The Dormouse's story</b></p>,
# <p class="story">Once upon a time there were...</p>,
# <p class="story">...</p>]
tag的名称和属性查找
soup.find_all("p", "title")
# [<p class="title"><b>The Dormouse's story</b></p>]
tag过滤
soup.find_all("a")
# [<a class="sister" href="http://example.com/elsie" id="link1">Elsie</a>,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/lacie" id="link2">Lacie</a>,
# <a class="sister" href="http://example.com/tillie" id="link3">Tillie</a>]
tag属性过滤
soup.find_all(id="link2")
# [<a class="sister" href="http://example.com/lacie" id="link2">Lacie</a>]
text正则过滤
import re
soup.find(text=re.compile("sisters"))
# u'Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were\n'获取内容和字符串
获取tag的字符串
title_tag.string
# u'The Dormouse's story'注意在实际使用中应该使用 unicode(title_tag.string)来转换为纯粹的string对象
使用strings属性会返回soup的构造1个迭代器，迭代tag对象下面的所有文本内容
for string in soup.strings:
print(repr(string))
# u"The Dormouse's story"
# u'\n\n'
# u"The Dormouse's story"
# u'\n\n'
# u'Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were\n'
# u'Elsie'
# u',\n'
# u'Lacie'
# u' and\n'
# u'Tillie'
# u';\nand they lived at the bottom of a well.'
# u'\n\n'
# u'...'
# u'\n'
获取内容
.contents会以列表形式返回tag下的节点。
head_tag = soup.head
head_tag
# <head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head>
head_tag.contents
[<title>The Dormouse's story</title>]
title_tag = head_tag.contents[0]
title_tag
# <title>The Dormouse's story</title>
title_tag.contents
# [u'The Dormouse's story']总结
其实使用起主要是
soup = BeatifulSoup(data)
soup.title
soup.p.['title']
divs = soup.find_all('div', content='tpc_content')
divs[0].contents[0].string
