如何从网站获取 table(scrappin)

Question

我想把这个网站的 table 放到 Rstudio 中： “https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries”

我从零开始学习 R 一个月了，这就是我所做的：

library(XML)     
library(rvest)
library(xml2)

url<-("https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries")

covid<-readHTMLTable(url,which=1)

head(covid)

输出错误信息

url<-("https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries")
> covid<-readHTMLTable(url,which=1)
Error in (function (classes, fdef, mtable)  : 
  unable to find an inherited method for function ‘readHTMLTable’ for signature ‘"NULL"’
In addition: Warning message:
XML content does not seem to be XML: ''

我需要帮助

我们可以使用 rvest 来获取数据。

library(rvest)
url <- "https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries"

url %>% 
  read_html() %>%
  html_table() %>%
  .[[1]] %>%
  replace(., . == '', NA)

您可以查看 readr::parse_number 以将 TotalCases、NewCases 等列转换为数字格式。
