I am new to python and I am confused as to why when I try to
concatenate 3 strings, it isn't working properly.
Here is the code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
import string
import sys
import re
import urllib
linkArray = []
srcArray = []
website = sys.argv[1]
urllib.urlretrieve(website, 'getfile.txt')
filename = "getfile.txt"
input = open(filename, 'r')
reg1 = re.compile('href=".*"')
reg3 = re.compile('".*?"')
reg4 = re.compile('http')
Line = input.readline()
while Line:
searchstring1 = reg1.search(Line)
if searchstring1:
rawlink = searchstring1.group()
link = reg3.search(rawlink).group()
link2 = link.split('"')
cleanlink = link2[1:2]
fullink = reg4.search(str(cleanlink))
if fullink:
linkArray.append(cleanlink)
else:
cleanlink2 = str(website) + "/" + str(cleanlink)
linkArray.append(cleanlink2)
Line = input.readline()
print linkArray
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I get this:
["http://www.slugnuts.com/['index.html']",
"http://www.slugnuts.com/['movies.html']",
"http://www.slugnuts.com/['ramblings.html']",
"http://www.slugnuts.com/['sluggies.html']",
"http://www.slugnuts.com/['movies.html']"]
instead of this:
["http://www.slugnuts.com/index.html]";,
"http://www.slugnuts.com/movies.html]";,
"http://www.slugnuts.com/ramblings.html]";,
"http://www.slugnuts.com/sluggies.html]";,
"http://www.slugnuts.com/movies.html]";]
The concatenation isn't working the way I expected it to. I suspect
that I am screwing up by mixing types, but I can't see where...
I would appreciate any advice or pointers.
Thanks.
