基于crawler4j、jsoup、javacsv的爬虫实践

1. crawler4j基础

crawler4j是一个基于Java的爬虫开源项目，其官方地址如下：

http://code.google.com/p/crawler4j/

crawler4j的使用主要分为两个步骤：

1. 实现一个继承自WebCrawler的爬虫类；
2. 通过CrawlController调用实现的爬虫类。

WebCrawler是一个抽象类，继承它必须实现两个方法：shouldVisit和visit。其中：

• shouldVisit是判断当前的URL是否已经应该被爬取（访问）；
• visit则是爬取该URL所指向的页面的数据，其传入的参数即是对该web页面全部数据的封装对象Page。

另外，WebCrawler还有其它一些方法可供覆盖，其方法的命名规则类似于Android的命名规则。如getMyLocalData方法可以返回WebCrawler中的数据；onBeforeExit方法会在该WebCrawler运行结束前被调用，可以执行一些资源释放之类的工作。

相对而言，CrawlController的调用就比较格式化了。一般地，它的调用代码如下：

            String crawlStorageFolder = "data/crawl/root";
            int numberOfCrawlers = 7;

            CrawlConfig config = new CrawlConfig();
            config.setCrawlStorageFolder(crawlStorageFolder);

            /*
             * Instantiate the controller for this crawl.
             */
            PageFetcher pageFetcher = new PageFetcher(config);
            RobotstxtConfig robotstxtConfig = new RobotstxtConfig();
            RobotstxtServer robotstxtServer = new RobotstxtServer(robotstxtConfig, pageFetcher);
            CrawlController controller = new CrawlController(config, pageFetcher, robotstxtServer);

            /*
             * For each crawl, you need to add some seed urls. These are the first
             * URLs that are fetched and then the crawler starts following links
             * which are found in these pages
             */
            controller.addSeed("http://www.ics.uci.edu/~welling/");
            controller.addSeed("http://www.ics.uci.edu/~lopes/");
            controller.addSeed("http://www.ics.uci.edu/");

            /*
             * Start the crawl. This is a blocking operation, meaning that your code
             * will reach the line after this only when crawling is finished.
             */
            controller.start(MyCrawler.class, numberOfCrawlers);   

另外，由于CrawlController对WebCrawler特殊的调用方式——反射（上述代码最后一行），因此WebCrawler的实现类必须拥有无参的构造方法，且有参的构造方法不会生效。对WebCrawler的实现类的私有成员的赋值需要通过静态方法来实现，示例参见crawler4j提供的例子：Image Crawler

更多信息请参见crawler4j的代码和示例。

2. jsoup基础

jsoup是一个基于Java的开源HTML解析器，其官网地址如下：

http://jsoup.org/

jsoup最大的特点，或者说，它比使用DOM4J进行HTML解析更好的原因，是它可以采用jQuery选择器的语法。

例如：

Document doc = Jsoup.connect("http://en.wikipedia.org/").get();
Elements newsHeadlines = doc.select("#mp-itn b a");

上述代码就是获取了http://en.wikipedia.org/页面中id为mp-itn的元素下的<b>标签中的<a>标签，与jQuery选择器的结果一致。

更多jsoup的使用方法请参见jsoup的示例（在主页的右侧Cookbook Content中）。

需要特别说明的是，jsoup中主要有三种操作对象：Document、Elements及Element。其中：

• Document继承自Element类，它包含页面中的全部数据，通过Jsoup类的静态方法获得；
• Elements是Element的集合类；
• Element是页面元素的实体类，包含了诸多操作页面元素的方法，其中除了类似于jQuery选择器的select方法外，还有大量类似于JS和jQuery的对DOM元素进行操作的方法，如getElementById，text，addClass，等等。
  

3. javacsv基础

javacsv是一个基于Java的开源CSV文件读写工具，其官方地址如下：

http://www.csvreader.com/java_csv.php

CSV文件的读写其实很简单，可以自己实现，网上也有诸多示例。使用javacsv的原因在于其代码简洁易用。

javacsv的使用示例参见其官方示例：

http://www.csvreader.com/java_csv_samples.php

需要说明的是，读写CSV文件时，若存在中文，请尽量使用FileReader（读）及FileWriter（写），而非FileInputStream和FileOutputStream，以免出现乱码。

4. 爬虫实践

下面的实践的目标是爬取搜车网的全部二手车信息，并作为CSV文件输出。代码如下：
