It's clear to me, that my recipe isn't complete. It was done to show you, that Calibre is expecting a HTML-page as URL. You passed the address of a GIF-image to calibre, which was interpredet as a HTML-page an produced the character garbage you've seen.
The good point is, that the keep_only_tags member is a
list of dictionaries. You may add any other expression you need to parse other pages. If i take a look at an article, e. g.
http://www.pagina12.com.ar/diario/el...011-09-22.html, i see that the actual article is embedded into a <div class="nota top12"> tag.
A modified keep_only_tags may be:
Code:
keep_only_tags = [dict(name='div', attrs={'id':'rudy_paz'}), dict(name='div', attrs={'class':'nota top12'})]
With this code, calibre will keep
- all <div> with id="rudy_paz' AND
- all <div> with class='nota top12'
It's no matter if they dont appear on the same page. But if you pass one page with the comic strip and a list of pages with articles, it will work on both of them.
By the way: For convenience, you may replace the second part of a dictionary entry of the keep_only_tags by a compiled regular expression, e. g. attrs={'class':re.compile('top.*')}
But don't forget to add a
at the top of the recipe.
