Hello instead of scraping you can use their API

im new to r and Webscraping. I'm currently scraping a realestate website (https://www.immobilienscout24.de/Suche/S-T/Wohnung-Miete/Rheinland-Pfalz/Koblenz?enteredFrom=one_step_search) but i don't manage to scrape the links of the specific offers.
When using the code below, i get every link attached to the Website, and im not quite sure how i can filter it in a way that it only scrapes the links of the 20 estate offers. Maybe you can help me.
Viewing the source code / inspecting the elements didn't help me so far...
url <- immo_webp %>%
html_nodes("a") %>%
html_attr("href")
You can target the article tags and then construct the urls from the data-obid attribute by concatenating with a base string
library(rvest)
library(magrittr)
base = 'https://www.immobilienscout24.de/expose/'
urls <- lapply(read_html("https://www.immobilienscout24.de/Suche/S-T/Wohnung-Miete/Rheinland-Pfalz/Koblenz?enteredFrom=one_step_search")%>%
html_nodes('article')%>%
html_attr('data-obid'), function (url){paste0(base, url)})
print(urls)
i'm using xpath and rvest for scraping an htm page. Other examples of rvest work well with pipelines, but for this particular script nothing is returned.
webpage <- read_html("https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/34-45135.htm")
whomst <- webpage %>% html_nodes(xpath = '/html/body/table[2]/tbody/tr/td[3]/font/p[1]/table/tbody/tr/td[1]/p[2]')
What is returned is :
{xml_nodeset (0)}
Here is a screenshot of the page and the corresponding html
And here's the page that I'm on: https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/34-45135.htm. I'm trying to extract the words, "PINNACLE HOLDINGS, INC."
Sometimes chrome tool doesn't give accurate xpath or css, you need to try by yourself, this selector works:
webpage %>% html_nodes("td > p:nth-child(3)") %>% html_text()
result:
[1] "PINNACLE HOLDINGS, INC., \n
I have this website which has a table of many pages. Can someone help me read all pages of that table into R?
Website:
https://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/banklist.html
You can scrape the entire HTML table using the rvest package. See the code below. The code automatically identifies the entire table and reads in all 555 entries.
require(rvest)
URL <- "https://www.fdic.gov/bank/individual/failed/banklist.html"
failed_banks <- URL %>%
read_html() %>%
html_table() %>%
as.data.frame()
I want to scrape information from this page for each month with a few parameters, download all returning articles and look for some information.
Scraping works fine with css selector, for example getting the article names:
library(rvest)
browseURL("http://www.sueddeutsche.de/news")
#headings Jan 2015
url_parsed1 <- read_html("http://www.sueddeutsche.de/news?search=Fl%C3%BCchtlinge&sort=date&dep%5B%5D=politik&typ%5B%5D=article&sys%5B%5D=sz&catsz%5B%5D=alles&time=2015-01-01T00%3A00%2F2015-12-31T23%3A59&startDate=01.01.2015&endDate=31.01.2015")
headings_nodes1 <- html_nodes(url_parsed1, css = ".entrylist__title")
headings1 <- html_text(headings_nodes1)
headings1 <- str_replace_all(headings1, "\\n|\\t|\\r", "") %>% str_trim()
head(headings1)
headings1
But now i want to download the articles for every entrylist_link that the search returns ( for example here).
How can i do that? I followed advices here , because the URLs aren´t regular and have different numbers for each article at the end, but it doesnt work.
Somehow i´m not able to get the entrylist_link information with the href information.
I think getting all the links together in a vector is the biggest problem
Can someone give me suggestions on how to get this to work?
Thank you in advance for any help.
If you right click on the page and click inpect (I'm using a Chrome Web Browswer), you can see more detail for the underlying xml. I was able to pull all the links under the headings:
library(rvest)
browseURL("http://www.sueddeutsche.de/news")
url_parsed1 <- read_html("http://www.sueddeutsche.de/news?search=Fl%C3%BCchtlinge&sort=date&dep%5B%5D=politik&typ%5B%5D=article&sys%5B%5D=sz&catsz%5B%5D=alles&time=2015-01-01T00%3A00%2F2015-12-31T23%3A59&startDate=01.01.2015&endDate=31.01.2015")
headings_nodes1 <- html_nodes(url_parsed1, ".entrylist__link, a")
html_links <- html_attr(headings_nodes1, "href")
I've got problem with rvest on Facebook. I've webscraped many things by R earlier, so I understand how for example html_nodes works. I always use SelectorGadget and everything workes. This time, SelectorGadget doesn't work on Facebook site so I have to cope with html.
Let's say I've got this site https://www.facebook.com/avanti/posts/1017920341583065 and I want to extract article title ('Karnawałowe stylizacje F&F'). How can I do it?
I've tried so far:
library("rvest")
link_fb <- "http://www.fb.com/103052579736517_1017920341583065"
html_strony <- read_html(link_fb)
html_text(html_nodes(html_strony, "mbs _6m6"))
but it doesn't work. I'd be really greatfull for any help.
PS I have to have this title, not after clicking the link, because it could be different there.
I think you should USE Facebook API to download content and information from Facebook: Rfacebook R package and Facebook API: https://developers.facebook.com/
You can write your own R-Facebook-API conection with httr package. Good luck
