爬虫笔记：BeautifulSoup详解

BeautifulSoup

Beautiful Soup提供一些简单的、python式的函数用来处理导航、搜索、修改分析树等功能。它是一个工具箱，通过解析文档为用户提供需要抓取的数据，因为简单，所以不需要多少代码就可以写出一个完整的应用程序。
Beautiful Soup自动将输入文档转换为Unicode编码，输出文档转换为utf-8编码。你不需要考虑编码方式，除非文档没有指定一个编码方式，这时，Beautiful Soup就不能自动识别编码方式了。然后，你仅仅需要说明一下原始编码方式就可以了。
Beautiful Soup已成为和lxml、html6lib一样出色的python解释器，为用户灵活地提供不同的解析策略或强劲的速度。

用法详解

解析器	使用方法	优势	劣势
Python标准库	BeautifulSoup(markup, “html.parser”)	Python的内置标准库、执行速度适中、文档容错能力强	Python 2.7.3 or 3.2.2)前的版本中文容错能力差
lxml HTML 解析器	BeautifulSoup(markup, “lxml”)	速度快、文档容错能力强	需要安装C语言库
lxml XML 解析器	BeautifulSoup(markup, “xml”)	速度快、唯一支持XML的解析器	需要安装C语言库
html5lib	BeautifulSoup(markup, “html5lib”)	最好的容错性、以浏览器的方式解析文档、生成HTML5格式的文档	速度慢、不依赖外部扩展

基本使用

html = """
<html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head>
<body>
<p class="title" name="dromouse"><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, 'lxml')#使用lxml解析库
print(soup.prettify())#格式化代码，自动补全代码。前面给的html不完整，有的只有头标签
print(soup.title.string)#打印内容

prettify美化。前面给的html不全，有的不完整，只有头标签，soup.prettify()补全代码。soup.title.string 打印内容

标签选择器
选择元素

html = """
<html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head>
<body>
<p class="title" name="dromouse"><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, 'lxml')#选择解析器
print(soup.title)#选择title标签。标签即<>
print(type(soup.title))
print(soup.head)#选择head标签
print(soup.p)#选择p标签

代码里p标签比较特殊，有多个，结果只输出了第一个p标签。意味着这种选择方式只会返回一个（第一个）

获取标签名称

html = """
<html><head><title>The Dormouse's story</title></head>
<body>
<p class="title" name="dromouse"><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, 'lxml')
print(soup.title.name)#获取title标签名

结果把标签名字输出来啦

获取标签属性

print(list(enumerate(soup.a.next_siblings)))#a标签的下一个兄弟节点
print(list(enumerate(soup.a.previous_siblings)))#上一个兄弟

sibling 翻译兄弟姐妹

标准选择器find_all
前面的选择方式是根据标签名来选择，但现实中不适合，因为一个html文档有很多相同名的标签。这时需要其他选择签
find_all( name , attrs , recursive , text , **kwargs )
可根据标签名、属性、内容查找文档

根据标签名name选择


html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
        <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">Foo</li>
            <li class="element">Bar</li>

    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all('ul'))
print(type(soup.find_all('ul')[0]))

find_all(‘ul’) 找出ul标签。找出的是所有。返回的是列表形式

标签名name嵌套选择

html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
        <ul class="list" id="list-1">
            <li class="element">Foo</li>

        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for ul in soup.find_all('ul'):#因为返回结果是列表，所以可以遍历
    print(ul.find_all('li'))

利用attrs选择

html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
        <ul class="list" id="list-1" name="elements">
            <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">Foo</li>
            <li class="element">Bar</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(attrs={
    
    'id': 'list-1'}))#查找id为list-1的标签
print('----')
print(soup.find_all(attrs={
    
    'name': 'elements'}))

attrs接收的是一个字典型参数

可以不用attrs，直接在后面添加属性值


html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
        <ul class="list" id="list-1">

        </ul>
        <ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
            <li class="element">Foo</li>
            <li class="element">Bar</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(id='list-1'))
print(soup.find_all(class_='element'))#因为classs是一个关键词，不能直接输入，所以在后面加一个下划线

根据文本内容text来选择

html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">
        <ul class="list" id="list-1">

        </ul>
        <ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
            <li class="element">Foo</li>
            <li class="element">Bar</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find_all(text='Foo'))#查找文本内容为Foo

返回的是内容。

标签选择器find
find( name , attrs , recursive , text , **kwargs )
find返回单个元素，find_all返回所有元素
用法和findall一样


html='''
<div class="panel">
    <div class="panel-heading">
        <h4>Hello</h4>
    </div>
    <div class="panel-body">

            <li class="element">Jay</li>
        </ul>
        <ul class="list list-small" id="list-2">
            <li class="element">Foo</li>
            <li class="element">Bar</li>
        </ul>
    </div>
</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
print(soup.find('ul'))
print(type(soup.find('ul')))
print(soup.find('page'))

find 其他用法

find_parents() find_parent()
find_parents()返回所有祖先节点，find_parent()返回直接父节点。
#%% md
find_next_siblings() find_next_sibling()
find_next_siblings()返回后面所有兄弟节点，find_next_sibling()返回后面第一个兄弟节点。
find_previous_siblings() find_previous_sibling()
find_previous_siblings()返回前面所有兄弟节点，find_previous_sibling()返回前面第一个兄弟节点。
find_all_next() find_next()
find_all_next()返回节点后所有符合条件的节点, find_next()返回第一个符合条件的节点
find_all_previous() 和 find_previous()
find_all_previous()返回节点后所有符合条件的节点, find_previous()返回第一个符合条件的节点

css选择器
通过select()直接传入CSS选择器即可完成选择
如果是class前加点,如果是id ，前面加#

</div>
'''
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'lxml')
for li in soup.select('li'):
    print(li.get_text())#get_text()获取文本内容

总结

推荐使用lxml解析库，必要时使用html.parser
标签选择筛选功能弱但是速度快
建议使用find()、find_all() 查询匹配单个结果或者多个结果
如果对CSS选择器熟悉建议使用select()
记住常用的获取属性和文本值的方法
