🛠️ 安装方法

Windows安装

bash 复制代码 
# 使用pip安装（推荐）
pip install lxml

# 如果遇到编译问题，使用预编译版本
pip install --only-binary=lxml lxml

Linux/macOS安装

bash 复制代码 
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev python3-dev
pip install lxml

# CentOS/RHEL
sudo yum install libxml2-devel libxslt-devel python3-devel
pip install lxml

# macOS
brew install libxml2 libxslt
pip install lxml

验证安装

python 复制代码 
import lxml
from lxml import etree, html
print(f"lxml版本: {lxml.__version__}")
print("安装成功！")

🚀 快速入门

基本使用流程

python 复制代码 
from lxml import html, etree
import requests

# 1. 获取网页内容
url = "https://example.com"
response = requests.get(url)
html_content = response.text

# 2. 解析HTML
tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

# 3. 使用XPath提取数据
title = tree.xpath('//title/text()')[0]
print(f"网页标题: {title}")

# 4. 查找所有链接
links = tree.xpath('//a/@href')
for link in links:
    print(f"链接: {link}")

HTML vs XML解析

python 复制代码 
from lxml import html, etree

# HTML解析（容错性强，适合网页）
html_content = "<html><body><p>Hello World</p></body></html>"
html_tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

# XML解析（严格模式，适合结构化数据）
xml_content = "<?xml version='1.0'?><root><item>Data</item></root>"
xml_tree = etree.fromstring(xml_content)

# 从文件解析
html_tree = html.parse('page.html')
xml_tree = etree.parse('data.xml')

🔍 核心功能详解

1. XPath选择器

XPath是lxml的核心优势，提供强大的元素选择能力：
python 复制代码 
from lxml import html

html_content = """
<html>
<body>
    <div class="container">
        <h1 id="title">主标题</h1>
        <div class="content">
            <p class="text">第一段文本</p>
            <p class="text highlight">重要文本</p>
            <ul>
                <li>项目1</li>
                <li>项目2</li>
                <li>项目3</li>
            </ul>
        </div>
        <a href="https://example.com" class="external">外部链接</a>
        <a href="/internal" class="internal">内部链接</a>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
"""

tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

# 基本XPath语法
print("=== 基本选择 ===")
# 选择所有p标签
paras = tree.xpath('//p')
print(f"p标签数量: {len(paras)}")

# 选择特定class的元素
highlight = tree.xpath('//p[@class="text highlight"]')
print(f"高亮文本: {highlight[0].text if highlight else 'None'}")

# 选择第一个li元素
first_li = tree.xpath('//li[1]/text()')
print(f"第一个列表项: {first_li[0] if first_li else 'None'}")

print("\n=== 属性选择 ===")
# 获取所有链接的href属性
links = tree.xpath('//a/@href')
for link in links:
    print(f"链接: {link}")

# 获取外部链接
external_links = tree.xpath('//a[@class="external"]/@href')
print(f"外部链接: {external_links}")

print("\n=== 文本内容 ===")
# 获取所有文本内容
all_text = tree.xpath('//text()')
clean_text = [text.strip() for text in all_text if text.strip()]
print(f"所有文本: {clean_text}")

# 获取特定元素的文本
title_text = tree.xpath('//h1[@id="title"]/text()')
print(f"标题: {title_text[0] if title_text else 'None'}")

print("\n=== 复杂选择 ===")
# 选择包含特定文本的元素
contains_text = tree.xpath('//p[contains(text(), "重要")]')
print(f"包含'重要'的段落数: {len(contains_text)}")

# 选择父元素
parent_div = tree.xpath('//p[@class="text"]/parent::div')
print(f"父元素class: {parent_div[0].get('class') if parent_div else 'None'}")

# 选择兄弟元素
sibling = tree.xpath('//h1/following-sibling::div')
print(f"兄弟元素数量: {len(sibling)}")

2. CSS选择器支持

python 复制代码 
from lxml import html
from lxml.cssselect import CSSSelector

html_content = """
<div class="container">
    <h1 id="main-title">标题</h1>
    <div class="content">
        <p class="intro">介绍段落</p>
        <p class="detail">详细内容</p>
    </div>
    <ul class="nav">
        <li><a href="#home">首页</a></li>
        <li><a href="#about">关于</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>
"""

tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

# 使用CSS选择器
print("=== CSS选择器 ===")

# 创建CSS选择器对象
title_selector = CSSSelector('#main-title')
class_selector = CSSSelector('.intro')
complex_selector = CSSSelector('ul.nav li a')

# 应用选择器
title_elements = title_selector(tree)
intro_elements = class_selector(tree)
link_elements = complex_selector(tree)

print(f"标题: {title_elements[0].text if title_elements else 'None'}")
print(f"介绍: {intro_elements[0].text if intro_elements else 'None'}")
print(f"导航链接数量: {len(link_elements)}")

# 直接使用cssselect方法
detail_paras = tree.cssselect('p.detail')
print(f"详细段落: {detail_paras[0].text if detail_paras else 'None'}")

3. 元素操作

python 复制代码 
from lxml import html, etree

# 创建新文档
root = etree.Element("root")
doc = etree.ElementTree(root)

# 添加子元素
child1 = etree.SubElement(root, "child1")
child1.text = "第一个子元素"
child1.set("id", "1")

child2 = etree.SubElement(root, "child2")
child2.text = "第二个子元素"
child2.set("class", "important")

# 插入元素
new_child = etree.Element("inserted")
new_child.text = "插入的元素"
root.insert(1, new_child)

# 修改元素
child1.text = "修改后的文本"
child1.set("modified", "true")

# 删除元素
root.remove(child2)

# 输出XML
print("=== 创建的XML ===")
print(etree.tostring(root, encoding='unicode', pretty_print=True))

# 解析现有HTML并修改
html_content = "<div><p>原始文本</p></div>"
tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

# 修改文本内容
p_element = tree.xpath('//p')[0]
p_element.text = "修改后的文本"
p_element.set("class", "modified")

# 添加新元素
new_p = etree.SubElement(tree, "p")
new_p.text = "新添加的段落"
new_p.set("class", "new")

print("\n=== 修改后的HTML ===")
print(etree.tostring(tree, encoding='unicode', pretty_print=True))

🛡️ 高级技巧与最佳实践

1. XPath高级用法

python 复制代码 
from lxml import html

# 复杂的XPath示例
html_content = """
<html>
<body>
    <div class="container">
        <article class="post" data-id="1">
            <h2>文章标题1</h2>
            <p class="meta">作者: 张三 | 时间: 2024-01-01</p>
            <div class="content">
                <p>这是第一段内容。</p>
                <p>这是第二段内容。</p>
            </div>
            <div class="tags">
                <span class="tag">Python</span>
                <span class="tag">爬虫</span>
            </div>
        </article>
        <article class="post" data-id="2">
            <h2>文章标题2</h2>
            <p class="meta">作者: 李四 | 时间: 2024-01-02</p>
            <div class="content">
                <p>另一篇文章的内容。</p>
            </div>
        </article>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
"""

tree = html.fromstring(html_content)

print("=== XPath高级技巧 ===")

# 1. 使用位置谓词
first_article = tree.xpath('//article[1]/h2/text()')
print(f"第一篇文章标题: {first_article}")

last_article = tree.xpath('//article[last()]/h2/text()')
print(f"最后一篇文章标题: {last_article}")

# 2. 使用属性条件
specific_article = tree.xpath('//article[@data-id="2"]/h2/text()')
print(f"ID为2的文章标题: {specific_article}")

# 3. 文本内容条件
author_zhang = tree.xpath('//p[@class="meta"][contains(text(), "张三")]/following-sibling::div[@class="content"]//p/text()')

# 4. 多条件组合
python_articles = tree.xpath('//article[.//span[@class="tag" and text()="Python"]]/h2/text()')

# 5. 轴操作
# following-sibling: 后续兄弟节点
# preceding-sibling: 前面兄弟节点
# parent: 父节点
# ancestor: 祖先节点
# descendant: 后代节点

# 获取标题后的所有段落
content_after_title = tree.xpath('//h2/following-sibling::div[@class="content"]//p/text()')
print(f"所有内容段落: {content_after_title}")

# 6. 函数使用
# normalize-space(): 标准化空白字符
# substring(): 字符串截取
# count(): 计数

clean_meta = tree.xpath('//p[@class="meta"]/normalize-space(text())')
print(f"清理后的meta信息: {clean_meta}")

tag_count = tree.xpath('count(//span[@class="tag"])')
print(f"标签总数: {tag_count}")

# 7. 变量和表达式
# 查找包含特定数量标签的文章
articles_with_multiple_tags = tree.xpath('//article[count(.//span[@class="tag"]) > 1]/h2/text()')
print(f"有多个标签的文章: {articles_with_multiple_tags}")

2. 命名空间处理

python 复制代码 
from lxml import etree

# XML with namespaces
xml_content = """
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root xmlns:book="http://example.com/book" xmlns:author="http://example.com/author">

            <book:price currency="CNY">129.00</book:price>
        </book:item>
    </book:catalog>
</root>
"""

tree = etree.fromstring(xml_content)

# 定义命名空间映射
namespaces = {
    'book': 'http://example.com/book',
    'author': 'http://example.com/author'
}

print("=== 命名空间处理 ===")

# 使用命名空间查询
titles = tree.xpath('//book:title/text()', namespaces=namespaces)
print(f"书籍标题: {titles}")

authors = tree.xpath('//author:name/text()', namespaces=namespaces)
print(f"作者: {authors}")

# 获取特定货币的价格
cny_prices = tree.xpath('//book:price[@currency="CNY"]/text()', namespaces=namespaces)
print(f"人民币价格: {cny_prices}")

# 复杂查询：获取价格超过100的书籍信息
expensive_books = tree.xpath('//book:item[book:price > 100]', namespaces=namespaces)
