ruia-pyppeteer

A Ruia plugin for loading javascript

Notice: Works on ruia >= 0.8.0

Installation

pip install ruia_pyppeteer
# New features
pip install git+https://github.com/ruia-plugins/ruia-pyppeteer

Usage

ruia_pyppeteer will load js by using pyppeteer.

You need to pay attention when you use load_js, it will download a recent version of Chromium (~100MB). This only happens once.

Load JavaScript

import asyncio

from ruia_pyppeteer import PyppeteerRequest as Request

request = Request("https://www.jianshu.com/", load_js=True)
response = asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(request.fetch())
print(response)

Complete example

from ruia import AttrField, Item, TextField

from ruia_pyppeteer import PyppeteerSpider as Spider

class JianshuItem(Item):
    target_item = TextField(css_select="ul.list>li")
    author_name = TextField(css_select="a.name")
    author_url = AttrField(attr="href", css_select="a.name")

    async def clean_author_name(self, author_name):
        return author_name.strip()

    async def clean_author_url(self, author_url):
        return f"https://www.jianshu.com{author_url}"

class JianshuSpider(Spider):
    start_urls = ["https://www.jianshu.com/"]
    concurrency = 10

    async def parse(self, response):
        html = await response.page.content()
        async for item in JianshuItem.get_items(html=html):
            # Loading js by using PyppeteerRequest
            print(item)
        await response.browser.close()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    JianshuSpider.start()

Enjoy it :)
