urllib


urllib提供了一系列用于操作URL的功能。

 

Get

 

urllib的request模块可以非常方便地抓取URL内容,也就是发送一个GET请求到指定的页面,然后返回HTTP的响应:

例如,对豆瓣的一个URLhttps://api.douban.com/v2/book/2129650进行抓取,并返回响应:

from urllib import request

with request.urlopen('https://api.douban.com/v2/book/2129650') as f:
data = f.read()
print('Status:', f.status, f.reason)
for k, v in f.getheaders():
print('%s: %s' % (k, v))
print('Data:', data.decode('utf-8'))
可以看到HTTP响应的头和JSON数据:

Status: 200 OK
Server: nginx
Date: Tue, 26 May 2015 10:02:27 GMT
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 2049
Connection: close
Expires: Sun, 1 Jan 2006 01:00:00 GMT
Pragma: no-cache
Cache-Control: must-revalidate, no-cache, private
X-DAE-Node: pidl1
Data: {"rating":{"max":10,"numRaters":16,"average":"7.4","min":0},"subtitle":"","author":["...编著"],"pubdate":"2007-6",...}


想模拟浏览器发送GET请求,就需要使用Request对象,通过往Request对象添加HTTP头,我们就可以把请求伪装成浏览器。例如,模拟iPhone 6去请求豆瓣首页:

from urllib import request

req = request.Request('http://www.douban.com/')
req.add_header('User-Agent', 'Mozilla/6.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 8_0 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/536.26 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/8.0 Mobile/10A5376e Safari/8536.25')
with request.urlopen(req) as f:
print('Status:', f.status, f.reason)
for k, v in f.getheaders():
print('%s: %s' % (k, v))
print('Data:', f.read().decode('utf-8'))
这样豆瓣会返回适合iPhone的移动版网页:

...
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no, initial-scale=1.0, minimum-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0">
<meta name="format-detection" content="telephone=no">
<link rel="apple-touch-icon" sizes="57x57" href="http://img4.douban.com/pics/cardkit/launcher/57.png" />
...


urllib提供的功能就是利用程序去执行各种HTTP请求。如果要模拟浏览器完成特定功能,需要把请求伪装成浏览器。伪装的方法是先监控浏览器发出的请求,再根据浏览器的请求头来伪装,User-Agent头就是用来标识浏览器的。
