使用Mechanize查看页面是否已更新的最简单的解决方案是什么?
我正在考虑创建一个名为pages的表。
那会:
pagename - varchar
page - text
pageupdated - boolean
我应该如何创建屏幕抓取工具并将数据保存在数据库中? 以及如何创建一个方法来比较表中的html和已删除的数据。检查页面是否已更新。

答案已更新并经过测试。
以下是使用Page模型(并使用retryable-rb)的示例:
rails generate scaffold页面名称:string remote_url:string page:text digest:text page_updated:boolean
####### app/models/page.rb
require 'digest'
require 'retryable'
class Page < ActiveRecord::Base
include Retryable
# Scrape page before validation
before_validation :scrape_content, :if => :remote_url?
# Will cause save to fail if page could not be retrieved
validates_presence_of :page, :if => :remote_url?, :message => "URL provided is invalid or inaccessible."
# Update digest if/when all validations have passed
before_save :set_digest
# ...
def update_page!
self.scrape_content
self.set_digest
self.save!
end
def page_updated?
self.page_updated
end
protected
def scrape_content
ua = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X) ' +
'AppleWebKit/535.1 (KHTML, like Gecko) ' +
'Chrome/14.0.835.186 Safari/535.1'
# Using retryable, create scraper and get page
scraper = Mechanize.new{ |i| i.user_agent = ua }
scraped_page = retryable(:times => 3, :sleep => false) do
scraper.get(URI.encode(self.remote_url))
end
self.page_updated = false
self.page = scraped_page.content
self.name ||= scraped_page.title
self.digest ||= Digest.hexencode(self.page)
end
def set_digest
# Create new digest of page content
new_digest = Digest.hexencode(self.page)
# If digest has changed, update digest and set flag
if (new_digest != self.digest) && !self.digest.nil?
self.digest = new_digest
self.page_updated = true
else
self.page_updated = false
end
true
end
end
我很确定这是一个无关紧要的问题,但在 LoadError
和我的测试应用程序中尝试require 'mechanize'
时似乎遇到了rails console
。不知道是什么导致了这个问题,但是当我能够成功测试这个解决方案时,我会更新我的答案。
请务必记住将其添加到您的应用Gemfile
:
gem 'mechanize', '2.0.1'
gem 'retryable-rb', '1.1.0'
使用示例:
p = Page.new(:remote_url => 'http://rubyonrails.org/')
p.save!
p.page_updated? # => false, since page hasn't been updated since creation
p.remote_url = 'http://www.google.com/' # for the sake of example
p.update_page!
p.page_updated? # => true
