页面下载失败。这是我收到的错误:

Error in which(value == defs) : 
  argument "code" is missing, with no default

这是我的代码:

require(RCurl)
require(XML)

ok <- "http://www.okcupid.com/match?filter1=0,34&filter2=2,22,40&filter3=3,5&filter4=5,3600&filter5=9,486&filter6=1,1&locid=4265540&lquery=San%20Francisco,%20California&timekey=1&matchOrderBy=MATCH&custom_search=0&fromWhoOnline=0&mygender=m&update_prefs=1&sort_type=0&sa=1&using_saved_search=&count=50"

okc <- getURL(ok, encoding="UTF-8") #Download the page
okcHTML <- htmlParse(okc, asText = TRUE, encoding = "utf-8")

最佳答案

如果您愿意生活在 Hadleyverse 的最前沿，rvest 可以很好地处理这个问题:

library(rvest)

ok_search <- "https://www.okcupid.com/match?filter1=0,34&filter2=2,22,40&filter3=3,5&filter4=5,3600&filter5=9,486&filter6=1,1&locid=4265540&lquery=San%20Francisco,%20California&timekey=1&matchOrderBy=MATCH&custom_search=0&fromWhoOnline=0&mygender=m&update_prefs=1&sort_type=0&sa=1&using_saved_search=&count=50"

pg <- html_session(ok_search)
pg %>% html_nodes("div.profile_info") %>% html_text()

##  [1] "  phenombom   32·San Francisco, CA  "        "  sylvea   24·San Francisco, CA  "

我将探讨为什么直接 RCurl(rvest 包装 RCurl)不起作用。

更新

更深一层并使用 httr(另一个 RCurl 抽象):

library(httr)
library(XML)

res <- GET(ok_search)
ok_html <- content(res, as="parsed")
xpathSApply(ok_html, "//div[@class='profile_info']", xmlValue)

它返回与上面相同的结果，所以它也工作正常。

更新/已解决

library(RCurl)
library(XML)

okc <- getURL(ok,  followlocation=TRUE)
ok_html <- htmlParse(okc)
xpathSApply(ok_html , "//div[@class='profile_info']", xmlValue)

您需要添加followlocation=TRUE。原始 URL 导致 302 响应(服务器正在发送重定向)并且 RCurl 默认情况下不会遵循这些响应，但似乎 httr 和 rvest 确保默认设置参数。

您可以在 getURL 上使用 verbose=TRUE 参数将响应视为控制台消息:

它在调试此类问题时非常有用。您也可以将 verbose() 参数用于 httr 或 rvest URL 检索函数。
