R Scrape a list of Google + urls using purrr package

淺唱寂寞╮ 提交于 2019-12-13 02:54:34
问题 I am working on a web scraping project, which aims to extract Google + reviews from a set of children's hospitals. My methodology is as follows: 1) Define a list of Google + urls to navigate to for review scraping. The urls are in a dataframe along with other variables defining the hospital. 2) Scrape reviews, number of stars, and post time for all reviews related to a given url. 3) Save these elements in a dataframe, and name the dataframe after another variable in the dataframe

Here is a similar question, but I think it is better to post mine as it contains more details: Webscraping content across multiple pages using rvest package library(rvest) library(lubridate) library(dplyr) urls <- list("http://simple.ripley.com.pe/tv-y-video/televisores/ver-todo-tv", "http://simple.ripley

问题 This is a follow up to a prior thread. The code works fantastic for a single value but I get the following error when trying to pass more than 1 value I get an error based on the length of the function. Error in vapply(elements, encode, character(1)) : values must be length 1, but FUN(X[1]) result is length 3 Here is a sample of the code. In most instances I have been able just to name an object and scrape that way. library(httr) library(rvest) library(dplyr) b<-c('48127','48180','49504')
