在 R 中重新格式化 table

Question

我正在努力从网站上的 table 中提取信息。 table 的输出如下所示（见下文）。

1. Saturday
2. 4:00 PM
3. 5:30 PM
4. Sunday
5. 8:30 AM
6. 10:00 AM

我真的需要它像这样通过（见下文）。我不认为我可以用 html_table() 函数转换它，但我希望有人知道如何在 R 中重新格式化它。

1. Saturday    4:00 PM
2. Saturday    5:30 PM
3. Sunday      8:30 AM
4. Sunday      10:00 AM

这是我使用的代码：

urls <- 'https://www.life.church/edmond/'

times <- function(x){ 
  try( x %>%
         read_html()%>%
         html_table(header = F)%>%
         data.frame(x))

}


#Apply function to the urls
m <- lapply(urls, times)

#Convert to a dataframe 
data <-data.frame(unnest(tibble(m)))

Answer 1

这就是我会做的：

library(dplyr)
library(xml2)
library(rvest)
library(tidyr)
library(purrr)

times <- function(x){ 
  try(
    x %>%
      read_html() %>%
      html_table(header = FALSE) %>% 
      flatten() %>% 
      as_tibble()
  )
}

urls <- c('https://www.life.church/edmond/', 'https://www.life.church/fortworth/')

lapply(urls, times) %>% 
  set_names(urls) %>% 
  bind_rows(.id = "URL") %>% 
  separate(X1, into = c("Time", "Day"), sep = "(?=^\D)") %>% 
  fill(Day) %>% 
  filter(Time != "") %>% 
  select(URL, Day, Time)

# A tibble: 16 x 3
   URL                                Day       Time    
   <chr>                              <chr>     <chr>

separate() 使用前瞻性正则表达式将而非以数字开头的条目分隔到新列 Day
