我想使用Python从HTML文件中提取文本。我想从本质上得到相同的输出,如果我从浏览器复制文本,并将其粘贴到记事本。

我想要一些更健壮的东西,而不是使用正则表达式,正则表达式可能会在格式不佳的HTML上失败。我见过很多人推荐Beautiful Soup,但我在使用它时遇到了一些问题。首先,它会抓取不需要的文本,比如JavaScript源代码。此外,它也不解释HTML实体。例如,我会期望'在HTML源代码中转换为文本中的撇号,就像我将浏览器内容粘贴到记事本一样。

更新html2text看起来很有希望。它正确地处理HTML实体,而忽略JavaScript。然而,它并不完全生成纯文本;它产生的降价,然后必须转换成纯文本。它没有示例或文档,但代码看起来很干净。

安装html2text using

PIP安装html2text

然后,

>>> import html2text
>>>
>>> h = html2text.HTML2Text()
>>> # Ignore converting links from HTML
>>> h.ignore_links = True
>>> print h.handle("<p>Hello, <a href='http://earth.google.com/'>world</a>!")
Hello, world!

你可以用BeautifulSoup从HTML中提取文本

url = "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/extracting-email-addresses-using-regular-expressions-python/"
con = urlopen(url).read()
soup = BeautifulSoup(con,'html.parser')
texts = soup.get_text()
print(texts)

我推荐一个名为goose-extractor的Python包 Goose将尝试提取以下信息:

文章的正文 文章主图 任何Youtube/Vimeo电影嵌入文章 元数据描述 元标记

如果你想从网页中自动提取文本段落,有一些可用的python包,如Trafilatura。作为基准测试的一部分,比较了几个python包:

@PeYoTIL使用BeautifulSoup并删除样式和脚本内容的回答对我来说并不管用。我尝试用分解代替提取,但它仍然没有工作。所以我创建了自己的格式文本使用<p>标签和替换<a>标签与href链接。也处理文本内的链接。可在此主旨与测试文档嵌入。

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup, NavigableString

def html_to_text(html):
    "Creates a formatted text email message as a string from a rendered html template (page)"
    soup = BeautifulSoup(html, 'html.parser')
    # Ignore anything in head
    body, text = soup.body, []
    for element in body.descendants:
        # We use type and not isinstance since comments, cdata, etc are subclasses that we don't want
        if type(element) == NavigableString:
            # We use the assumption that other tags can't be inside a script or style
            if element.parent.name in ('script', 'style'):
                continue

            # remove any multiple and leading/trailing whitespace
            string = ' '.join(element.string.split())
            if string:
                if element.parent.name == 'a':
                    a_tag = element.parent
                    # replace link text with the link
                    string = a_tag['href']
                    # concatenate with any non-empty immediately previous string
                    if (    type(a_tag.previous_sibling) == NavigableString and
                            a_tag.previous_sibling.string.strip() ):
                        text[-1] = text[-1] + ' ' + string
                        continue
                elif element.previous_sibling and element.previous_sibling.name == 'a':
                    text[-1] = text[-1] + ' ' + string
                    continue
                elif element.parent.name == 'p':
                    # Add extra paragraph formatting newline
                    string = '\n' + string
                text += [string]
    doc = '\n'.join(text)
    return doc

Beautiful soup可以转换html实体。考虑到HTML经常有bug并且充满unicode和HTML编码问题,这可能是您最好的选择。这是我用来将html转换为原始文本的代码:

import BeautifulSoup
def getsoup(data, to_unicode=False):
    data = data.replace("&nbsp;", " ")
    # Fixes for bad markup I've seen in the wild.  Remove if not applicable.
    masssage_bad_comments = [
        (re.compile('<!-([^-])'), lambda match: '<!--' + match.group(1)),
        (re.compile('<!WWWAnswer T[=\w\d\s]*>'), lambda match: '<!--' + match.group(0) + '-->'),
    ]
    myNewMassage = copy.copy(BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup.MARKUP_MASSAGE)
    myNewMassage.extend(masssage_bad_comments)
    return BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup(data, markupMassage=myNewMassage,
        convertEntities=BeautifulSoup.BeautifulSoup.ALL_ENTITIES 
                    if to_unicode else None)

remove_html = lambda c: getsoup(c, to_unicode=True).getText(separator=u' ') if c else ""
