I want to crawl an entire website , I have read several threads but I cannot manage to get data in a 2nd level.
That is, I can return the links from a starting page but then I cannot find a way to parse the links and get the content of each link...
The code I use is:
<?php
// SELECT STARTING PAGE
$url = 'http://mydomain.com/';
$html= file_get_contents($url);
// GET ALL THE LINKS OF EACH PAGE
// create a dom object
$dom = new DOMDocument();
@$dom->loadHTML($html);
// run xpath for the dom
$xPath = new DOMXPath($dom);
// get links from starting page
$elements = $xPath->query("//a/@href");
foreach ($elements as $e) {
echo $e->nodeValue. "<br />";
}
// Parse each page using the extracted links?
?>
Could somebody help me out for the last part with an example?
I will be really much appreciated!
Well , thanx for your answers!
I tried some stuff but I Haven't managet to get any results yet - I am new to programming..
Below, you can find 2 of my attempts - the 1st trying to parse the links and in the second trying to replace file_get contents with Curl:
1)
<?php
// GET STARTING PAGE
$url = 'http://www.capoeira.com.gr/';
$html= file_get_contents($url);
//GET ALL THE LINKS FROM STARTING PAGE
// create a dom object
$dom = new DOMDocument();
@$dom->loadHTML($html);
// run xpath for the dom
$xPath = new DOMXPath($dom);
// get specific elements from the sites
$elements = $xPath->query("//a/@href");
//PARSE EACH LINK
foreach($elements as $e) {
$URLS= file_get_contents($e);
$dom = new DOMDocument();
@$dom->loadHTML($html);
$xPath = new DOMXPath($dom);
$output = $xPath->query("//div[@class='content-entry clearfix']");
echo $output ->nodeValue;
}
?>
For the above code I get
Warning: file_get_contents() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given in ../example.php on line 26
2)
<?php
$curl = curl_init();
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, "http://capoeira.com.gr");
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$content= curl_exec($curl);
curl_close($curl);
$dom = new DOMDocument();
@$dom->loadHTML($content);
$xPath = new DOMXPath($dom);
$elements = $xPath->query("//a/@href");
foreach ($elements as $e) {
echo $e->nodeValue. "<br />";
}
?>
I get no results. I tried to echo $content and then I get :
You don't have permission to access / on this server.
Additionally, a 413 Request Entity Too Large error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request...
Any ideas please?? :)
You can try the following. See this thread for more details
<?php
//set_time_limit (0);
function crawl_page($url, $depth = 5){
$seen = array();
if(($depth == 0) or (in_array($url, $seen))){
return;
}
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1);
$result = curl_exec ($ch);
curl_close ($ch);
if( $result ){
$stripped_file = strip_tags($result, "<a>");
preg_match_all("/<a[\s]+[^>]*?href[\s]?=[\s\"\']+"."(.*?)[\"\']+.*?>"."([^<]+|.*?)?<\/a>/", $stripped_file, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER );
foreach($matches as $match){
$href = $match[1];
if (0 !== strpos($href, 'http')) {
$path = '/' . ltrim($href, '/');
if (extension_loaded('http')) {
$href = http_build_url($href , array('path' => $path));
} else {
$parts = parse_url($href);
$href = $parts['scheme'] . '://';
if (isset($parts['user']) && isset($parts['pass'])) {
$href .= $parts['user'] . ':' . $parts['pass'] . '@';
}
$href .= $parts['host'];
if (isset($parts['port'])) {
$href .= ':' . $parts['port'];
}
$href .= $path;
}
}
crawl_page($href, $depth - 1);
}
}
echo "Crawled {$href}";
}
crawl_page("http://www.sitename.com/",3);
?>
$doc = new DOMDocument;
$doc->load('file.htm');
$items = $doc->getElementsByTagName('a');
foreach($items as $value) {
echo $value->nodeValue . "\n";
$attrs = $value->attributes;
echo $attrs->getNamedItem('href')->nodeValue . "\n";
};
find link from website recursively with depth
<?php
$depth = 1;
print_r(getList($depth));
function getList($depth)
{
$lists = getDepth($depth);
return $lists;
}
function getUrl($request_url)
{

$brokenCount =0;
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $request_url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // We want to get the respone
$result = curl_exec($ch);
$regex = '|<a.*?href="(.*?)"|';
preg_match_all($regex, $result, $parts);
$links = $parts[1];
$lists = array();
foreach ($links as $link)
{
$url = htmlentities($link);
$result =getFlag($url);
if($result == true)
{
$UrlLists["clean"][$countValid] =$url;
$countValid++;
}
else
{
$UrlLists["broken"][$brokenCount]= "broken->".$url;
$brokenCount++;
}
}
curl_close($ch);
return $UrlLists;
}
function ZeroDepth($list)
{
$request_url = $list;
$listss["0"]["0"] = getUrl($request_url);
$lists["0"]["0"]["clean"] = array_unique($listss["0"]["0"]["clean"]);
$lists["0"]["0"]["broken"] = array_unique($listss["0"]["0"]["broken"]);
return $lists;
}
function getDepth($depth)
{
// $list =OW_URL_HOME;
$list = "https://example.com";//enter the url of website
$lists =ZeroDepth($list);
for($i=1;$i<=$depth;$i++)
{
$l= $i;
$l= $l-1;
$depthArray=1;
foreach($lists[$l][$l]["clean"] as $depthUrl)
{
$request_url = $depthUrl;
$lists[$i][$depthArray]["requst_url"]=$request_url;
$lists[$i][$depthArray] = getUrl($request_url);
}
}
return $lists;
}
function getFlag($url)
{
$url_response = array();
$curl = curl_init();
$curl_options = array();
$curl_options[CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER] = true;
$curl_options[CURLOPT_URL] = $url;
$curl_options[CURLOPT_NOBODY] = true;
$curl_options[CURLOPT_TIMEOUT] = 60;
curl_setopt_array($curl, $curl_options);
curl_exec($curl);
$status = curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_HTTP_CODE);
if ($status == 200)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
curl_close($curl);
}

Please check the code below, hope it helps you.
<?php
$html = new DOMDocument();
@$html->loadHtmlFile('http://www.yourdomain.com');
$xpath = new DOMXPath( $html );
$nodelist = $xpath->query( "//div[@class='A-CLASS-Name']/h3/a/@href" );
foreach ($nodelist as $n){
echo $n->nodeValue."\n<br>";
}
?>
Thanks,
Roger
<?php
$path='http://www.hscripts.com/';
$html = file_get_contents($path);
$dom = new DOMDocument();
@$dom->loadHTML($html);
// grab all the on the page
$xpath = new DOMXPath($dom);
$hrefs = $xpath->evaluate("/html/body//a");
for ($i = 0; $i < $hrefs->length; $i++ ) {
$href = $hrefs->item($i);
$url = $href->getAttribute('href');
echo $url.'<br />';
}
?>
you can use above code to get all possible links
