这里有新鲜出炉的Python教程,程序狗速度看过来!

Python编程语言

Python 是一种面向对象、解释型计算机程序设计语言,由Guido van Rossum于1989年底发明,第一个公开发行版发行于1991年。Python语法简洁而清晰,具有丰富和强大的类库。它常被昵称为胶水语言,它能够把用其他语言制作的各种模块(尤其是C/C++)很轻松地联结在一起。


这篇文章主要介绍了Python实现简单HTML表格解析的方法,涉及Python基于libxml2dom模块操作html页面元素的技巧,需要的朋友可以参考下

本文实例讲述了Python实现简单HTML表格解析的方法。分享给大家供大家参考。具体分析如下:

这里依赖libxml2dom,确保首先安装!导入到你的脚步并调用parse_tables() 函数。

1. source = a string containing the source code you can pass in just the table or the entire page code

2. headers = a list of ints OR a list of strings
If the headers are ints this is for tables with no header, just list the 0 based index of the rows in which you want to extract data.
If the headers are strings this is for tables with header columns (with the tags) it will pull the information from the specified columns

3. The 0 based index of the table in the source code. If there are multiple tables and the table you want to parse is the third table in the code then pass in the number 2 here

It will return a list of lists. each inner list will contain the parsed information.

具体代码如下:

#The goal of table parser is to get specific information from specific
#columns in a table.
#Input: source code from a typical website
#Arguments: a list of headers the user wants to return
#Output: A list of lists of the data in each row
import libxml2dom
def parse_tables(source, headers, table_index):
  """parse_tables(string source, list headers, table_index)
    headers may be a list of strings if the table has headers defined or
    headers may be a list of ints if no headers defined this will get data
    from the rows index.
    This method returns a list of lists
    """
  #Determine if the headers list is strings or ints and make sure they
  #are all the same type
  j = 0
  print 'Printing headers: ',headers
  #route to the correct function
  #if the header type is int
  if type(headers[0]) == type(1):
    #run no_header function
    return no_header(source, headers, table_index)
  #if the header type is string
  elif type(headers[0]) == type('a'):
    #run the header_given function
    return header_given(source, headers, table_index)
  else:
    #return none if the headers aren't correct
    return None
#This function takes in the source code of the whole page a string list of
#headers and the index number of the table on the page. It returns a list of
