What is it

PHPCreeper is a new generation of multi-process asynchronous event-driven spider engine based on workerman.

  • Focus on efficient agile development, and make the crawler job become more easy
  • Solve the performance and scalability bottlenecks of traditional crawler frameworks
  • Take advantage of crawling fully in Multi-Process + Distributed + Separated environment
  • Support headless browser which can execute JavaScript codes for crawling dynamic pages

爬山虎是基于workerman开发的全新一代多进程异步事件驱动型PHP爬虫引擎, 它有助于:

  • 专注于高效敏捷开发,让爬取工作变得更加简单。
  • 解决传统型PHP爬虫框架的性能和扩展瓶颈问题。
  • 充分发挥多进程+分布式+分离式部署环境下的爬取优势。
  • 支持无头浏览器即支持运行JavaScript代码及其渲染页。

Features

  • Inherit almost all features from workerman
  • Support headless browser for crawling dynamic pages
  • Support router to different parser by the task type
  • Support Crontab-Jobs similar to Linux-Crontab
  • Support distributed and separated deployment
  • Support agile development with PHPCreeper-Application
  • Use PHPQuery as the elegant content extractor
  • With high performance and strong scalability

Prerequisites

  • PHP_VERSION ≥ 7.0.0 (Better to choose PHP 7.4+ for some compatibility reasons)
  • A POSIX compatible OS (Linux、OSX、BSD)
  • POSIX  extension for PHP (Required)
  • PCNTL extension for PHP (Required)
  • REDIS  extension for PHP (Optional, note that predis will be the default redis client since v1.4.2)
  • EVENT extension for PHP (Optional, it's strongly recommended to install for better performance)
  • 简单的说:只要能跑起来workerman那就能跑起来PHPCreeper,所以安装要求和workerman完全一致。
  • POSIX扩展和PCNTL扩展是必选项:PHP发行包一般都会默认安装这两个扩展,若没有请自行编译安装。
  • EVENT扩展是可选项:建议最好安装,这是提升各路性能的一个主要支撑;另注意需要优化Linux内核
  • REDIS扩展是可选项: 注意:v1.4.2版本之后,引擎默认采用predis客户端,所以不再强依赖REDIS扩展。

Installation

The recommended way to install PHPCreeper is through Composer.

composer require blogdaren/phpcreeper

Usage: NOT Depend On The PHPCreeper Application Framework

Firstly, there is another matched Application Framework named PHPCreeper-Application which is published simultaneously for your development convenience, although this framework is not necessary, we strongly recommend that you use it which will greatly improve your job efficiency. Besides, we can also write the code which NOT depends on the framework, it is also easy to make it.

Next let's take an example to show how to capture the weather in Washington in 7 days:(See Full Demo Here)

<?php 
//Note: if this example provided by the PHPCreeper does not work as expected, 
//check to modify the crawl rules, as the source DOM is most likely updated.
require "./vendor/autoload.php";

use PHPCreeper\Producer;
use PHPCreeper\Downloader;
use PHPCreeper\Parser;
use PHPCreeper\Server;
use PHPCreeper\Crontab;
use PHPCreeper\Timer;

//switch runtime language between `zh` and `en`, default is `zh`【version >= 1.3.7】
PHPCreeper::setLang('en');

//enable the single worker mode so that we can run without redis, however, you should note 
//it will be limited to run only all the downloader workers in this case【version >= 1.3.2】
//PHPCreeper::enableMultiWorkerMode(false);

//set master pid file manually as needed【version >= 1.3.8】
//PHPCreeper::setMasterPidFile('/path/to/master.pid');

//set worker log file when start as daemon mode as needed【version >= 1.3.8】
//PHPCreeper::setLogFile('/path/to/phpcreeper.log');

//note that `predis` will be the default redis client since【version >= 1.4.2】
//but you could still switch it to be `redis` if you prefer to use ext-redis
//PHPCreeper::setDefaultRedisClient('redis');

//set default timezone, default is `Asia/Shanghai`【version >= 1.5.4】
//PHPCreeper::setDefaultTimezone('Asia/Shanghai');

//redirect all stdandard out to file when run as daemonize【version >= 1.7.0】
//PHPCreeper::setStdoutFile("/path/to/stdout.log");

//set default headless browser, default is `chrome`【version >= 1.8.7】
//PHPCreeper::setDefaultHeadlessBrowser('chrome');

//Global-Redis-Config: support array value with One-Dimension or Two-Dimension,

How to set extractor rule

//NOTE: this is new usage for【version >= v1.6.0】, strongly recommended to use.
$rule = array( 
    'field1' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
    .....................................................,
    'fieldN' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
);

//Single-Task
$task = array(
    'url'  => "https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=47.4113&lon=-120.5563",
    'rule' => $rule,
    'rule_name' =>  'r1',   
); 

//Multi-Task
$task = array(
    array(
        'url'  => "https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=47.4113&lon=-120.5563",
        'rule' => $rule,
        'rule_name' => 'r1', 
        "context" => $context,
    ),
    array(
        'url'  => "https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=47.4113&lon=-120.5563",
        'rule' => $rule,
        'rule_name' => 'r2', 
        "context" => $context,
    ),
);
  • Per URL config item match a unique rule config item, and the rule_name must be one-to-one correspondence
  • The type of rule value must be Array
  • For a single task, the depth of the corresponding rule item, that is, the depth of the array, can only be 2
  • For multi task, the depth of the corresponding rule item, that is, the depth of the array, can only be 3
//NOTE: this is outdated usage for【version < v1.6.0】, not recommended to use.
<?php
$urls = array(
    'rule_name1' => 'http://www.blogdaren.com';
    '..........' => '........................';
    'rule_nameN' => 'http://www.phpcreeper.com';
);

$rule = array( 
    'rule_name1' => array(
        'field1' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
        '......' => ['........', '....', '.....', '........'];
        'fieldN' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
    );
    .........................................................,
    'rule_nameN' => array(
        'field1' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
        '......' => ['........', '....', '.....', '........'];
        'fieldN' => ['selector', 'action', 'range', 'callback'],
    );
);
  • rule_name
    you should give an unique rule name for each task, so that we can easily index the data that we want, if you leave it empty, it will use md5($task_id) not md5($task_url) which has potential pitfalls as the unique rule name since v1.6.0

  • selector
    selector must be provided, or it will be ignored, just like jQuery selector, its value can be like #idName or .className or Html Element and so on.

  • action
    default value is text, indicates what action we should take, the value can be one of the following:
    text: used to get the inner text of html element
    html: used to get the inner text with tags of html element
    attr: used to get the attrbute value of html element
        【Attention: the real value shoud be the attribute like srchref etc, NOT attr itself
    css :  used specially to get the style attribute of html element, and return as an array form
        【Attention: support also more variant format like css:*css:prop1,prop2,...propN

  • range
    used to narrow down the entries to only those that match, just like jQuery selector, the value can be like #idName or .className or Html Element and so on.

  • callback
    you can trigger a callback string or callback function here, but remember to return the data expected.

    callback string: it is recommended to use and semantically equivalent to the PHP native callback function.
    callback function: note that you should use callback string instead of callback function, because PHP native callback function may work unexpectedly in communication across multi-process environments.

<?php
//extractor rule code example
$html = "<div><a href='http://www.phpcreeper.com' id='site' style='color:red;font-size:100px;'>PHPCreeper</a></div>";
$rule = array(
    'link_element'  => ['div',      'html'],
    'link_text '    => ['#site',    'text'],
    'link_address'  => ['a',        'href'],
    'link_css1'     => ['a',        'css'],
    'link_css2'     => ['div>a',    'css:font-size'],
    'callback_data' => ['#site',    'text', [], 'function($field_name, $data){
        return "Hello " . $data;
    }'], 
);  
$data = $parser->extractField($html, $rule, 'rule1');
pprint($data['rule1']);

//output
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [link_element] => <a href="http://www.phpcreeper.com" id="site" style="color:red;font-size:100px;">PHPCreeper</a>
            [link_text ] => PHPCreeper
            [link_address] => http://www.phpcreeper.com
            [link_css1] => Array
                (
                    [color] => red
                    [font-size] => 100px
                )

            [link_css2] => Array
                (
                    [font-size] => 100px
                )

            [callback_data] => Hello PHPCreeper
        )

)

Use Database

PHPCreeper wrappers a lightweight database like Medoo style, please visit the Medoo official site if you wanna know more about its usage. now we just need to find out how to get the DBO, as a matter of fact, it is very simple:

First configure the database.php then add the code listed below:

<?php
return array(
    'dbo' => array(
        'test' => array(
            'database_type' => 'mysql',
            'database_name' => 'test',
            'server'        => '127.0.0.1',
            'username'      => 'root',
            'password'      => 'root',
            'charset'       => 'utf8'
        ),
    ),
);

Now we can get DBO and start the query or the other operation as you like:

<?php
$downloader->onAfterDownloader = function($downloader){
    //dbo single instance and we can pass the DSN string `test`
    $downloader->getDbo('test')->select('title', '*');
    
    //dbo single instance and we can pass the configuration array
    $config = Configurator::get('globalConfig/database/dbo/test')
    $downloader->getDbo($config)->select('title', '*');

    //dbo new instance and we can pass the DSN string `test`
    $downloader->newDbo('test')->select('title', '*');

    //dbo new instance and we can pass the configuration array
    $config = Configurator::get('globalConfig/database/dbo/test')
    $downloader->newDbo($config)->select('title', '*');
};

Available commands

Note that all the commands in PHPCreeper can only run on the command line, and you must write a global entry startup script whose name assumed to be start.php before you start any crawling jobs, but if you use the PHPCreeper-Application framework for your development, it will automatically help you generate all the startup scripts including global we need.

php start.php start
php start.php start -d
php start.php stop
php start.php restart
php start.php reload
php start.php reload -g
php start.php status
php start.php connections
