处理BeautifulSoup的错误链接的最佳方法是什么?

标签: python parsing beautifulsoup

我正在研究从美味中提取网址的内容,然后使用这些网址发现相关的供稿。

然而,一些美味的书签不是HTML链接,导致BS到barf。基本上,如果BS取出它并且看起来不像html,我想扔掉一个链接。

现在,这就是我所得到的。

更新

杰赫的答案就是诀窍。作为参考,这里有一些代码来获取内容类型:

def check_for_html(link):
    out = urllib.urlopen(link)
    return out.info().getheader('Content-Type')

答案 0 :(得分:3)

我只需封装我的BeautifulSoup处理并查找HTMLParser.HTMLParseError异常

import HTMLParser,BeautifulSoup
try:
    soup = BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup(raw_html)
    for a in soup.findAll('a'):
        href = a.['href']
        ....
except HTMLParser.HTMLParseError:
    print "failed to parse",url

但除此之外,您可以在抓取网页时检查回复的内容类型,并确保在您尝试解析之前找到类似text/htmlapplication/xml+xhtml之类的内容它。这应该可以避免大多数错误。
