一、正则表达式
文档地址：https://scrapy-chs.readthedocs.io/zh_CN/latest/intro/overview.html
例如：
在XPath的 starts-with() 或 contains() 无法满足需求时， test() 函数可以非常有用。
例如：
在列表中选择有”class”元素且结尾为一个数字的链接:
>>> from scrapy import Selector
>>> doc = """
... <div>
... <ul>
... <li class="item-0"><a href="link1.html">first item</a></li>
... <li class="item-1"><a href="link2.html">second item</a></li>
... <li class="item-inactive"><a href="link3.html">third item</a></li>
... <li class="item-1"><a href="link4.html">fourth item</a></li>
... <li class="item-0"><a href="link5.html">fifth item</a></li>
... </ul>
... </div>
... """
>>> sel = Selector(text=doc, type="html")
>>> sel.xpath('//li//@href').extract()
[u'link1.html', u'link2.html', u'link3.html', u'link4.html', u'link5.html']
>>> sel.xpath('//li[re:test(@class, "item-\d$")]//@href').extract()
[u'link1.html', u'link2.html', u'link4.html', u'link5.html']
>>>
二、集合操作
集合操作可以方便地用于在提取文字元素前从文档树中去除一些部分。
例如：
使用itemscopes组和对应的itemprops来提取微数据(来自http://schema.org/Product的样本内容):
>>> doc = """
... <div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Product">
... <span itemprop="name">Kenmore White 17" Microwave</span>
... <img src="kenmore-microwave-17in.jpg" alt='Kenmore 17" Microwave' />
... <div itemprop="aggregateRating"
... itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/AggregateRating">
... Rated <span itemprop="ratingValue">3.5</span>/5
... based on <span itemprop="reviewCount">11</span> customer reviews
... </div>
...
... <div itemprop="offers" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Offer">
... <span itemprop="price">$55.00</span>
... <link itemprop="availability" href="http://schema.org/InStock" />In stock
... </div>
...
... Product description:
... <span itemprop="description">0.7 cubic feet countertop microwave.
... Has six preset cooking categories and convenience features like
... Add-A-Minute and Child Lock.</span>
...
... Customer reviews:
...
... <div itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review">
... <span itemprop="name">Not a happy camper</span> -
... by <span itemprop="author">Ellie</span>,
... <meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2011-04-01">April 1, 2011
... <div itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">
... <meta itemprop="worstRating" content = "1">
... <span itemprop="ratingValue">1</span>/
... <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span>stars
... </div>
... <span itemprop="description">The lamp burned out and now I have to replace
... it. </span>
... </div>
...
... <div itemprop="review" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Review">
... <span itemprop="name">Value purchase</span> -
... by <span itemprop="author">Lucas</span>,
... <meta itemprop="datePublished" content="2011-03-25">March 25, 2011
... <div itemprop="reviewRating" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Rating">
... <meta itemprop="worstRating" content = "1"/>
... <span itemprop="ratingValue">4</span>/
... <span itemprop="bestRating">5</span>stars
... </div>
... <span itemprop="description">Great microwave for the price. It is small and
... fits in my apartment.</span>
... </div>
... ...
... </div>
... """
>>>
>>> for scope in sel.xpath('//div[@itemscope]'):
... print "current scope:", scope.xpath('@itemtype').extract()
... props = scope.xpath('''
... set:difference(./descendant::*/@itemprop,
... .//*[@itemscope]/*/@itemprop)''')
... print " properties:", props.extract()
... print
...
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Product']
properties: [u'name', u'aggregateRating', u'offers', u'description', u'review', u'review']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/AggregateRating']
properties: [u'ratingValue', u'reviewCount']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Offer']
properties: [u'price', u'availability']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Review']
properties: [u'name', u'author', u'datePublished', u'reviewRating', u'description']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Rating']
properties: [u'worstRating', u'ratingValue', u'bestRating']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Review']
properties: [u'name', u'author', u'datePublished', u'reviewRating', u'description']
current scope: [u'http://schema.org/Rating']
properties: [u'worstRating', u'ratingValue', u'bestRating']
>>>
在这里，我们首先在 itemscope 元素上迭代，对于其中的每一个元素，我们寻找所有的 itemprops 元素，并排除那些本身在另一个 itemscope 内的元素。
示例：
>>> from scrapy import Selector
>>> sel = Selector(text='<a href="#">Click here to go to the <strong>Next Page</strong></a>')
>>> sel.xpath('//a//text()').extract() # take a peek at the node-set
[u'Click here to go to the ', u'Next Page']
>>> sel.xpath("string(//a[1]//text())").extract() # convert it to string
[u'Click here to go to the ']
>>> sel.xpath("//a[1]").extract() # select the first node
[u'<a href="#">Click here to go to the <strong>Next Page</strong></a>']
>>> sel.xpath("string(//a[1])").extract() # convert it to string
[u'Click here to go to the Next Page']
