通过Xpath循环错误Selenium Python获取元素

标签: python selenium web-scraping

我正在尝试为Pinterest制作网络抓取工具。我几乎可以获取所有数据,但是每个引脚都有一个名为“查看更多”的按钮,该按钮生成:“板名”和“作者名”数据。

逻辑:

  1. 将所有按钮元素保存在数组中
  2. 浏览它们并单击每个按钮
  3. 页面上的总针脚数量
  4. 根据引脚数进行递增查找以增加“板名” xpath

按钮单击循环代码:

moreButtons = driver.find_elements_by_xpath('//button[@data-test-id="seemoretoggle"]')
    for moreBtn in moreButtons:
        moreBtn.click()

    source_data = driver.page_source

获取委员会名称代码

# Pin Length - Total Pins
total_pins = []
total_pins = driver.find_elements_by_class_name("Grid__Item")

# Pin Board Names
i = 1
while i <= len(total_pins):
    temp_xpath = "/html/body/div[1]/div[1]/div[1]/div/div/div/div/div[1]/div/div/div/div[" + str(i) + "]/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/h4/a[1]"
    temp = driver.find_element_by_xpath(temp_xpath)
    #pin_Board_Names.append(temp)
    print(temp.text)
    i += 1

种类很多。

它为我找到了3个董事会名称,但以错误结尾。我尝试编辑循环和按钮单击,但是它们似乎都可以工作。 有谁知道是什么原因引起的,或者可能有建议去探索?

编辑1 :看到错误,提示无法通过xpath找到元素。但是该元素位于网页上。

编辑2 :添加了try:except进行检查。这里的代码:

try:
            temp = driver.find_element_by_xpath(temp_xpath)
        except:
            print('no element at pin number: ' + str(i))

输出:

检查了找不到输出的引脚号,但是网页上有板名。

编辑3 :注意,在第47号针脚之后,始终表示未找到任何元素。无论列表多大。还检查了moreButtons中是否存在所有按钮xpath,并且它们是有效的。

谢谢您的帮助

在@AnkDasCo的评论帮助下,找到了解决方案。这里有两个问题:

  1. Pinterest中同一元素有2个不同的xpath。在某些地方,他们为相同的元素创建了2个div,而不仅仅是1个。
  2. Webdriver需要一些时间来提取元素。尽管驱动程序等待页面使用默认脚本完全加载元素,但向webdriver添加' wait '有助于确保其尝试提取元素然后在一段时间后继续运行。与“ time.sleep()”相同,但有所不同,因为它与webdriver有关。

xpaths 以下是同一项目的2个xpath:

  1. / html / body / div [1] / div [1] / div [1] / div / div / div / div / div / div [1] / div / div / div / div [4] / div / div / div [2] / div / h4 / a [1]
  2. / html / body / div [1] / div [1] / div [1] / div / div / div / div / div / div [1] / div / div / div / div [1] / div / div / div [2] / div [2] / h4 / a [1]

我们注意到,两者中的最后一个 / div 不同。

工作代码

    driver = webdriver.PhantomJS(executable_path='phantomjs.exe')
    print("Ghost Headless Driver Invoked")
    # driver.implicitly_wait(5) # if element not found, wait for (seconds) before next operation

    # Scrolling till the end of page
    print("Started Scrolling ... ")
    match=True # change to 'False' for making this work..
    lenOfPage = driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);var lenOfPage=document.body.scrollHeight;return lenOfPage;")
    while(match==False):
        lastCount = lenOfPage
        lenOfPage = driver.execute_script("window.scrollTo(0, document.body.scrollHeight);var lenOfPage=document.body.scrollHeight;return lenOfPage;")
