我正在尝试使用Python和Chrome作为Selenium webdriver来搜索Merriam-Webster的医学词典。到目前为止,这就是我所拥有的:
from os import path
from selenium import webdriver
# Adding an ad-blocker to Chrome to speed up page load times
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_extension(path.abspath("ublock-origin.crx"))
# Declaring the Selenium webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options = options)
# Fetching the "A" terms as a test set
driver.get("https://www.merriam-webster.com/browse/medical/a")
scraped_words = [] # The list that will hold each word
page_num = 1
while page_num < 55: # There are 54 pages of "A" terms
try:
for i in range(4): # There are 3 columns per page of words
column = "/html/body/div/div/div[5]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[3]/ul/li[" + str(i) + "]/a"
number_of_words = len(driver.find_elements_by_xpath(column))
for j in range(number_of_words):
word = driver.find_elements_by_xpath(column + "[" + str(j) + "]")
scraped_words.append(word)
driver.find_element_by_class_name("fa-angle-right").click() # Next page
page_num += 1 # Increment page number to keep track of current page
except:
driver.close()
# Write out words to a file
with open("medical_terms.dict", "w") as text_file:
for i in range(len(scraped_words)):
text_file.write(str(scraped_words[i]))
text_file.write("\n")
driver.close()
上面的代码提取了所有项目,因为len(scraped_words)
的输出是预期的数字。但是,由于我没有指定我想获取元素的文本,因此我得到元素标识符(我认为?)而不是文本。如果我决定使用word = driver.find_elements_by_xpath(column + "[" + str(j) + "]").text
来指定我想获取元素的文本,我会收到以下错误:
Traceback (most recent call last):

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):

我在这里感到奇怪的是,我在运行之间更改的唯一代码是在第22行,但错误消息指出了第20行。
任何帮助解读这里发生的事情以及我可以做些什么来修复它都会非常感激! :+)
答案 0 :(得分:3)
您只需创建一个访问元素文本的array_unshift($original,'dummy');
array_shift($original);
列表,即可更改:
words
为:
word = driver.find_elements_by_xpath(column + "[" + str(j) + "]")
由于word = [i.text for i in driver.find_elements_by_xpath(column + "[" + str(j) + "]")]
将始终返回列表,因此直接访问.find_elements_by_xpath
无法正常工作。
