How to implement a simple crawler using Node.js

Why choose to use node to write a crawler? It’s because the cheerio library is fully compatible with jQuery syntax. If you are familiar with it, it is really fun to use

Dependency selection

• cheerio: Node .js version of jQuery

• http: encapsulates an HTTP server and a simple HTTP client

• iconv-lite: Solve the problem of garbled characters when crawling gb2312 web pages

Initial implementation

Since we want to crawl the website content, we should first take a look at the basic structure of the website
We selected Movie Paradise as the target website and want to crawl all the latest movie download links

Analysis page

The page structure is as follows:

We can see that the title of each movie is under a <a href="http://www.php.cn/wiki/164.html" target="_blank">class</a>ulinka tag. Moving up, we can See that the outermost box class is co_content8

ok, you can start work

Get a page of movie titles

First Introduce dependencies and set the url to be crawled

var cheerio = require('cheerio');
var http = require('http');
var iconv = require('iconv-lite');

var url = 'http://www.ygdy8.net/html/gndy/dyzz/index.html';

Core codeindex.js

http.get(url, function(sres) {
  var chunks = [];
  sres.on('data', function(chunk) {
    chunks.push(chunk);
  });
  // chunks里面存储着网页的 html 内容，将它zhuan ma传给 cheerio.load 之后
  // 就可以得到一个实现了 jQuery 接口的变量，将它命名为 `$`
  // 剩下就都是 jQuery 的内容了
  sres.on('end', function() {
    var titles = [];
    //由于咱们发现此网页的编码格式为gb2312，所以需要对其进行转码，否则乱码
    //依据：“<meta>”
    var html = iconv.decode(Buffer.concat(chunks), 'gb2312');
    var $ = cheerio.load(html, {decodeEntities: false});
    $('.co_content8 .ulink').each(function (idx, element) {
      var $element = $(element);
      titles.push({
        title: $element.text()
      })
    })    
    console.log(titles);     
  });
});

Runnode index

The results are as follows

Successfully obtained the movie title. If I want to obtain the titles of multiple pages, it is impossible to change the URLs one by one. Of course there is a way to do this, please read on!

Get multi-page movie titles

We only need to encapsulate the previous code into a functionand recursivelyexecute it and we are done

Core Codeindex.js

var index = 1; //页面数控制
var url = 'http://www.ygdy8.net/html/gndy/dyzz/list_23_';
var titles = []; //用于保存title

function getTitle(url, i) {
  console.log("正在获取第" + i + "页的内容"); 
  http.get(url + i + '.html', function(sres) {
    var chunks = [];
    sres.on('data', function(chunk) {
      chunks.push(chunk);
    });
    sres.on('end', function() {
      var html = iconv.decode(Buffer.concat(chunks), 'gb2312');
      var $ = cheerio.load(html, {decodeEntities: false});
      $('.co_content8 .ulink').each(function (idx, element) {
        var $element = $(element);
        titles.push({
          title: $element.text()
        })
      })

The operation here is very simple, there is no need to use mongoose

Run again
node index

This is the crawler implemented by Node.js. I hope everyone can crawl the data you want;)
