为什么返回NoneType?

我试图使用下面的函数从维基百科中删除信息,但我遇到了属性错误,因为函数调用正在返回。有人可以尝试解释为什么这会返回无?

import wikipedia as wp
import string

def add_section_info(search):
    HTML = wp.page(search).html().encode("UTF-8") #gets HTML source from Wikipedia

    with open("temp.xml",'w') as t: #write HTML to xml format
        t.write(HTML)

    table_of_contents = []
    dict_of_section_info = {}

    #This extracts the info in the table of contents
    with open("temp.xml",'r') as r:
        for line in r:
            if "toclevel" in line: 
                new_string = line.partition("#")[2]
                content_title = new_string.partition("\"")[0]
                tbl = string.maketrans("_"," ")
                content_title = content_title.translate(tbl)
                table_of_contents.append(content_title)

    print wp.page(search).section("Aortic rupture") #this is None, but shouldn't be

    for item in table_of_contents:
        section = wp.page(search).section(item).encode("UTF-8")
        print section
        if section == "":
            continue
        else:
            dict_of_section_info[item] = section

    with open("Section_Info.txt",'a') as sect:
        sect.write(search)
        sect.write("------------------------------------------\n")
        for item in dict_of_section_info:
            sect.write(item)
            sect.write("\n\n")
            sect.write(dict_of_section_info[item])
        sect.write("####################################\n\n")

add_section_info("Abdominal aortic aneurysm")

我不明白的是,如果我运行add_section_info("HIV"),例如,它可以完美运行。

导入的维基百科的源代码是here

上面代码的输出是:

Abdominal aortic aneurysm

add_section_info(line)
  File "/home/pharoslabsllc/Documents/wikitest.py", line 30, in add_section_info
    section = wp.page(search).section(item).encode("UTF-8")

答案 0 :(得分:2)

page方法永远不会返回None(您可以在源代码中轻松检查),但section方法 返回{{1}如果无法找到标题。请参阅documentation

  

<强> None

     

section(section_title)获取部分的纯文本内容。   如果找不到self.sections,则返回None ,否则返回空格剥离字符串。

所以答案是你所指的维基百科页面没有标题为section_title的部分,就图书馆而言

查看维基百科本身似乎页面Abdominal aortic aneurysm确实有这样的部分。

请注意,如果您尝试检查Aortic rupture的值是多少:wp.page(search).sections。即似乎图书馆没有正确解析这些部分。

从找到的库here的源代码中,您可以看到此测试:

[]

然而:

section = u"== {} ==".format(section_title)
try:
  index = self.content.index(section) + len(section)
except ValueError:
  return None

请注意In [14]: p.content.find('Aortic') Out[14]: 3223 In [15]: p.content[3220:3220+50] Out[15]: '== Aortic ruptureEdit ===\n\nThe signs and symptoms ' In [16]: p.section('Aortic ruptureEdit') Out[16]: "The signs and symptoms of a ruptured AAA may includes severe pain in the lower back, flank, abdomen or groin. A mass that pulses with the heart beat may also be felt. The bleeding can leads to a hypovolemic shock with low blood pressure and a fast heart rate. This may lead to brief passing out.\nThe mortality of AAA rupture is up to 90%. 65–75% of patients die before they arrive at hospital and up to 90% die before they reach the operating room. The bleeding can be retroperitoneal or into the abdominal cavity. Rupture can also create a connection between the aorta and intestine or inferior vena cava. Flank ecchymosis (appearance of a bruise) is a sign of retroperitoneal bleeding, and is also called Grey Turner's sign.\nAortic aneurysm rupture may be mistaken for the pain of kidney stones, muscle related back pain." 。换句话说,该库有一个错误,没有考虑到要编辑的链接。

相同的代码适用于HIV的页面,因为在该页面中,标题旁边没有Edit ==链接。我不知道为什么会这样,任何它看起来像是图书馆的错误或缺点,所以你应该在其问题跟踪器上打开一张票。

同时你可以使用一个简单的修复:

edit

并使用此函数而不是def find_section(page, title): res = page.section(title) if res is None: res = page.section(title + 'Edit') return res 方法。但是,这只能是一个临时修复。

答案 1 :(得分:0)

wp.page(search).section(item)找不到您要查找的部分,并返回None。你没有检查它并尝试将值作为字符串处理;这预计会失败。
