Python Xpath：lxml.etree.XPathEvalError：谓词无效

Question

我正在尝试学习如何抓取网页，在教程中我正在使用下面的代码抛出此错误：

lxml.etree.XPathEvalError: Invalid predicate

我要查询的网站是（不要评判我，这是训练视频中使用的那个：/）：https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/candy-crush-saga/id553834731

导致错误的xpath字符串位于：

links = tree.xpath('//div[@class="center-stack"//*/a[@class="name"]/@href')

我正在使用LXML并请求库。

如果您需要任何其他信息，我很乐意提供！

Answer 1

print(tree.xpath('//div[@class="center-stack"]//*/a[@class="name"]/@href'))

您在]之后错过了结束"center-stack"。

您也可以从a[@class="name"]

中提取div[@class="content"]代码

 tree.xpath('//div[@class="content"]//a[@class="name"]/@href')

两者都会给你你想要的href：

In [19]: import  requests

In [20]: from lxml.html import fromstring


In [21]: r = requests.get("https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/candy-crush-saga/id553834731")

In [22]: tree = fromstring(r.content)

In [23]: a = tree.xpath('//div[@class="content"]//a[@class="name"]/@href')

In [24]: b =  tree.xpath('//div[@class="center-stack"]//*/a[@class="name"]/@href')

In [25]: print(a == b)
True

In [26]: print(a)
