Using multiple start_urls in CrawlSpider
I am using CrawlSpider to crawl a website. I have multiple start urls and each url has a "next link" linked to another similar page. I am using the rules to work with the next page.
rules = (
Rule(SgmlLinkExtractor(allow = ('/',),
restrict_xpaths=('//span[@class="next"]')),
callback='parse_item',
follow=True),
)
When there is only url in start_urls, everything is fine. However, when there are many urls in start_urls, I got "Ignore response <404 url>: HTTP status code not processed or not allowed".
How can I start from the first url in start_urls after I figured out all the "next link" and then start from the second url in start_urls?
Here is my code
class DoubanSpider(CrawlSpider):
name = "doubanBook"
allowed_domains = ["book.douban.com"]
category = codecs.open("category.txt","r",encoding="utf-8")
start_urls = []
for line in category:
line = line.strip().rstrip()
start_urls.append(line)
rules = (
Rule(SgmlLinkExtractor(allow = ('/',),
restrict_xpaths=('//span[@class="next"]')),
callback='parse_item',
follow=True),
)
def parse_item(self, response):
sel = Selector(response)
out = open("alllink.txt","a")
sites = sel.xpath('//ul/li/div[@class="info"]/h2')
for site in sites:
href = site.xpath('a/@href').extract()[0]
title = site.xpath('a/@title').extract()[0]
out.write("***")
out.close()
