一、介绍
Beautiful Soup 是一个可以从HTML或XML文件中提取数据的Python库.它能够通过你喜欢的转换器实现惯用的文档导航,查找,修改文档的方式.Beautiful Soup会帮你节省数小时甚至数天的工作时间.你可能在寻找 Beautiful Soup3 的文档,Beautiful Soup 3 目前已经停止开发,官网推荐在现在的项目中使用Beautiful Soup 4, 移植到BS4
#安装 Beautiful Soup pip install beautifulsoup4 #安装解析器 Beautiful Soup支持Python标准库中的HTML解析器,还支持一些第三方的解析器,其中一个是 lxml .根据操作系统不同,可以选择下列方法来安装lxml: $ apt-get install Python-lxml $ easy_install lxml $ pip install lxml 另一个可供选择的解析器是纯Python实现的 html5lib , html5lib的解析方式与浏览器相同,可以选择下列方法来安装html5lib: $ apt-get install Python-html5lib $ easy_install html5lib $ pip install html5lib 安装
二、基本使用
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> """ #基本使用:容错处理,文档的容错能力指的是在html代码不完整的情况下,使用该模块可以识别该错误。使用BeautifulSoup解析上述代码,能够得到一个 BeautifulSoup 的对象,并能按照标准的缩进格式的结构输出 from bs4 import BeautifulSoup soup=BeautifulSoup(html_doc,'lxml') #具有容错功能 res=soup.prettify() #处理好缩进,结构化显示 print(res)
三、标签选择器
#1、标签选择器:即直接通过标签名字选择,选择速度快,如果存在多个相同的标签则只返回第一个 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,'lxml') print(soup.head) print(type(soup.head)) #<class 'bs4.element.Tag'> print(soup.p) #存在多个相同的标签则只返回第一个 print(soup.a) #存在多个相同的标签则只返回第一个 #2、获取标签的名称 print(soup.p.name) #3、获取标签的属性 print(soup.p.attrs) #4、获取表的内容 print(soup.p.string) ''' 对下面的这种结构,soup.p.string 返回为None,因为里面有a <p id='list-1'> 哈哈哈哈 <a class='sss'> <span> <h1>aaaa</h1> </span> </a> <b>bbbbb</b> </p> ''' #5、嵌套选择 print(soup.head.title.string) print(soup.body.a.string) #6、子节点、子孙节点 html_doc = """ <html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head> <body> <p class="title"> <b>The Dormouse's story</b> Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were <a href="http://example.com/elsie" class="sister" id="link1"> <span>Elsie</span> </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,'lxml') print(soup.p.contents) #p下所有子节点 print(soup.p.children) #得到一个迭代器,包含p下所有子节点 for i,child in enumerate(soup.p.children): print(i,child) print(soup.p.descendants) #获取子孙节点,p下所有的标签都会选择出来 for i,child in enumerate(soup.p.descendants): print(i,child) #7、父节点、祖先节点 print(soup.a.parent) #获取a标签的父节点 print(soup.a.parents) #找到a标签所有的祖先节点,父亲的父亲,父亲的父亲的父亲... #8、兄弟节点 print(soup.a.next_siblings) #得到生成器对象 print(soup.a.previous_siblings) #得到生成器对象
四、标准选择器
#find与findall:用法完全一样,可根据标签名,属性,内容查找文档,但是find只找第一个元素 html_doc = """ <html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head> <body> <p class="title"> <b>The Dormouse's story</b> Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were <a href="http://example.com/elsie" class="sister" id="link1"> <span>Elsie</span> </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,'lxml') #1、按照标签名查找 # print(soup.find_all('a')) # print(soup.find_all('a',id='link3')) # print(soup.find_all('a',id='link3',attrs={'class':"sister"})) # # print(soup.find_all('a')[0].find('span')) #嵌套查找 #2、按照属性查找 # print(soup.p.find_all(attrs={'id':'link1'})) #等同于print(soup.find_all(id='link1')) # print(soup.p.find_all(attrs={'class':'sister'})) # # print(soup.find_all(class_='sister')) #3、按照文本内容查找 print(soup.p.find_all(text="The Dormouse's story")) # 按照完整内容匹配(是==而不是in),得到的结果也是内容 #更多:https://www.crummy.com/software/BeautifulSoup/bs4/doc/index.zh.html#find find与findall
五、CSS选择器
##该模块提供了select方法来支持css html_doc = """ <html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head> <body> <p class="title"> <b>The Dormouse's story</b> Once upon a time there were three little sisters; and their names were <a href="http://example.com/elsie" class="sister" id="link1"> <span>Elsie</span> </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>; <div class='panel-1'> <ul class='list' id='list-1'> <li class='element'>Foo</li> <li class='element'>Bar</li> <li class='element'>Jay</li> </ul> <ul class='list list-small' id='list-2'> <li class='element'><h1 class='yyyy'>Foo</h1></li> <li class='element xxx'>Bar</li> <li class='element'>Jay</li> </ul> </div> and they lived at the bottom of a well. </p> <p class="story">...</p> """ from bs4 import BeautifulSoup soup=BeautifulSoup(html_doc,'lxml') #1、CSS选择器 print(soup.p.select('.sister')) print(soup.select('.sister span')) print(soup.select('#link1')) print(soup.select('#link1 span')) print(soup.select('#list-2 .element.xxx')) print(soup.select('#list-2')[0].select('.element')) #可以一直select,但其实没必要,一条select就可以了 # 2、获取属性 print(soup.select('#list-2 h1')[0].attrs) # 3、获取内容 print(soup.select('#list-2 h1')[0].get_text())
六、总结
# 总结: #1、推荐使用lxml解析库 #2、讲了三种选择器:标签选择器,find与find_all,css选择器 1、标签选择器筛选功能弱,但是速度快 2、建议使用find,find_all查询匹配单个结果或者多个结果 3、如果对css选择器非常熟悉建议使用select #3、记住常用的获取属性attrs和文本值get_text()的方法
