Hello Brandon, hello Alexey and hello Jim,
I love this place - it is agreat place for newbies like me:
@ Jim: i trim my replies and eliminate old material! Thx for the hints!
@ Brandon: the path is really strange... but this was a very quick prove of
concept
Again: many thanks to all of you!
in the meantime i provide some first results i have gained so far: you remeber
the script that i have introduced further above: (see also below) i tried
replacing the "in" to look in the same directory as the script assuming it's in
the same directory ->in( '.' );
That means: i changed from ...
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use File::Find::Rule;
my @files = File::Find::Rule->file()
->name('einzelergebnis*.html')
->in( '/home/usr/perl/htmlfiles' );
foreach my $file(@files) {
print $file, "\n";
}
to this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use File::Find::Rule;
my @files = File::Find::Rule->file()
->name('einzelergebnis*.html')
->in( '.' );
foreach my $file(@files) {
print $file, "\n";
}
and then i got the following output:
htmlfiles/einzelergebnis80b5.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnisa0ef.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnis1b42.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnis5960.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnise523.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnis2c7e.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnisdf57.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnis2b53-2.html
htmlfiles/einzelergebnisb1c0-2.html
....and 22 thousand lines further... ;-)
This seems to be the starting point! now i can continue figuring out how i have
to configure the script of - see more below. So after having nailed down the
I-O handle-issues and the path names in General the parser-script (see below)
has to be configured. All following ideas should be regarding this
HTML-parser-script: (/below)
Well, this means i have:
a. to define the paths in $file the file/directory incl. path and furthermore
...
b. to define a path in $html_dir
In other words - i need to define the paths to
a. the directory that contains the files that need to be parsed - see above.
b. the path to the file that has to be created.
The first task can be solved if i take some gained knowledge out of the
preliminary-tasks - see above. That means: i have to look for the files in the
directory that is called "htmlfiles"
Does that mean i have to change this following line!?
my $file = 'school.html';
BTW – what does the Array @html_files do?
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use HTML::TokeParser;
my $file = 'school.html';
my $p = HTML::TokeParser->new($file) or die "Can't open: $!";
my %school;
while (my $tag = $p->get_tag('div', '/html')) {
# first move to the right div that contains the information
last if $tag->[0] eq '/html';
next unless exists $tag->[1]{'id'} and $tag->[1]{'id'} eq 'inhalt_large';
$p->get_tag('h1');
$school{'location'} = $p->get_text('/h1');
while (my $tag = $p->get_tag('div')) {
last if exists $tag->[1]{'id'} and $tag->[1]{'id'} eq 'fusszeile';
# get the school name from the heading
next unless exists $tag->[1]{'class'} and $tag->[1]{'class'} eq
'fm_linkeSpalte';
$p->get_tag('h2');
$school{'name'} = $p->get_text('/h2');
# verify format for school type
$tag = $p->get_tag('span');
unless (exists $tag->[1]{'class'} and $tag->[1]{'class'} eq 'schulart_text') {
warn "unexpected format: parsing stopped";
last;
}
$school{'type'} = $p->get_text('/span');
# verify format for address
$tag = $p->get_tag('p');
unless (exists $tag->[1]{'class'} and $tag->[1]{'class'} eq 'einzel_text') {
warn "unexpected format: parsing stopped";
last;
}
$school{'address'} = clean_address($p->get_text('/p'));
# find the description
$tag = $p->get_tag('p');
$school{'description'} = $p->get_text('/p');
}
}
print qq/$school{'name'}\n/;
print qq/$school{'location'}\n/;
print qq/$school{'type'}\n/;
foreach (@{$school{'address'}}) {
print "$_\n";
}
print qq/\nDescription: $school{'description'}\n/;
sub clean_address {
my $text = shift;
my @lines = split "\n", $text;
foreach (@lines) {
s/^\s+//;
s/\s+$//;
}
return \...@lines;
}
Brandon, Alexey and Jim, i look forward to any and all help! I really
appreciate a helping hand here...
Many many thanks for all you did so far! This mailinglist is a great place for
knowledge sharing!!
BTW i can provide you with more information about the parser-job that has to
be done. If this is whished just let me know!
regards
