每个网站都应该提供API,以结构化的格式共享数据。但现实情况下,虽然有提供,但是通常会限制可以抓取的数据,以及访问这些数据的频率。对于网站开发者而言,维护前端界面比维护后端API接口优先级更高。所以应该学习网络爬虫的相关知识。
前期准备:
1.检查robots.txt文件,了解限制,减少爬虫被封禁的可能性。
2.检查网站地图(Sitemap文件),帮助定位网站最新的内容。
3.估算网站大小(使用串行还是分布式)
4.识别网站所用技术(builtwith模块)
import builtwith
print(builtwith.parse('http://example.webscraping.com'))
#{'web-servers': ['Nginx'], 'web-frameworks': ['Web2py', 'Twitter Bootstrap'], 'programming-languages': ['Python'], 'javascript-frameworks': ['jQuery', 'Modernizr', 'jQuery UI']}
5.寻找网站所有者,用WHOIS协议查询域名的注册者是谁
import whois
print(whois.whois('appspot.com'))
{
“domain_name”: [
“APPSPOT.COM”,
“appspot.com”

“registrar”: “MarkMonitor, Inc.”,

重试下载功能:
import urllib3
#num_retries,限制重试次数
def downlaod(url,num_retries=2):
print('Downloading:',url)
try:
html=urllib3.urlopen(url).read()
except urllib3.URLERROR as e:
print('Download error:',e.reason)
html=None
if num_retries>0:
if(hasattr(e,'code') and 500<=e.code<600):
return downlaod(url,num_retries-1)
return html
设置用户代理:
import urllib3
#num_retries,限制重试次数
def downlaod(url,user_agent='wswp',num_retries=2):
print('Downloading:',url)
headers={'User_agent':user_agent}
request=urllib3.Request(url,headers=headers)
try:
html=urllib3.urlopen(request).read()
except urllib3.URLError as e:
print('Download error:',e.reason)
html=None
if num_retries>0:
if(hasattr(e,'code') and 500<=e.code<600):
#retry 5XX HTTP errors
return downlaod(url,user_agent,num_retries-1)
return html
网站地图爬虫
sitemap
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import re
from common import download
def crawl_sitemap(url):
# download the sitemap file
sitemap = download(url)
# extract the sitemap links
links = re.findall('(.*?) ', sitemap)
# download each link
for link in links:
html = download(link)
# scrape html here
# ...
if __name__ == '__main__':
crawl_sitemap('http://example.webscraping.com/sitemap.xml')
ID遍历爬虫
URL包含页面别名,对优化搜索引擎有帮助,同时这是网站结构的弱点,一般情况下,Web服务器会忽略这个字符串,只使用ID来匹配数据库中的相关记录。
