Question

我正在尝试使用rvest从this site.下载文件列表文件名是常规的，但下载网址与模式不匹配（只有几十位），所以我无法根据任何条件构建下载URL列表。如何使用链接名称下载实际文件？

到目前为止，我可以获得感兴趣的文件列表（基于CSS选择器），我可以获得网站上所有链接的列表，但我不确定如何匹配它们。我需要能够检查站点的更改并下载任何名称已更改的文件，因此使用文件名访问该文件非常重要。我对HTML / CSS不是很熟悉，所以这可能就是为什么我无法弄清楚这个可能很简单的任务。

library(rvest)

# url with list of download files

url <- "http://www-air.larc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/ArcView/actamerica.2016?C130=1"
doc <- read_html(url)

# getting everything within the CSS selector "td a"

all <- html_text(html_nodes(doc, "td a"))

# getting list of certain file names

filetype <- "PICARRO"
files <- all[grep(filetype, all)]

# this returns a list of all links on the page, 
# but I'm not sure how to match the links up with their names

html_attr(html_nodes(doc, "a"), "href")

提前感谢您的帮助。

Answer 1

如何使用map2中的purrr来合并两个向量all和html_attr(html_nodes(doc, "a"), "href")，然后根据文件类型名称进行过滤

 url <- "http://www-air.larc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/ArcView/actamerica.2016?C130=1"
doc <- read_html(url)
all <- html_text(html_nodes(doc, "td a"))
href <- html_attr(html_nodes(doc, "a"), "href")

z <- purrr::map2(all, href, function(x, y) data.frame(x, y)) 
z <- do.call(rbind, z)
filetype <- "PICARRO"
z[grep(filetype, z[,1]),]

Answer 2

略有不同的方法。

抓取所有可下载的文件名和网址：

library(httr)
library(rvest)
library(tidyverse)

pg <- read_html("http://www-air.larc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/ArcView/actamerica.2016?C130=1")

fils <- html_nodes(pg, xpath=".//a[contains(@href, 'cgi-bin/enzFile')]")

data_frame(
  filename = html_text(fils),
  link = sprintf("http://www-air.larc.nasa.gov%s", html_attr(fils, "href"))
) -> xdf
