Python抓取，网页不存在，但网站重定向到另一个页面

Question

我试图找到一种方法来知道网页是否存在。有很多方法，如httlib2、urlparse和using请求。但在我的情况下，如果网页不存在，网站会将我重定向到主页 例如 https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/category/sports/2015-09-21

有什么方法可以抓住它吗

Answer 1

您提到的URL提供了一个重定向返回代码（307），您可以捕获该代码。请看这里：

$ curl -i https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/category/sports/2015-09-21
HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect

Answer 2

您可以检查最后的url是否是您被重定向到的那个，以及是否有任何history的重定向

>>> import requests
>>> target_url = "https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/category/sports/2015-09-21"
>>> response = requests.get(target_url)
>>> response.history[0].url
u'https://www.thenews.com.pk/latest/category/sports/2015-09-21'
>>> response.url
u'https://www.thenews.com.pk/'
>>> response.history and response.url == 'https://www.thenews.com.pk/' != target_url
True
