Fundamental Techniques - Import (R): htm2txt
Package:
htm2txt
Functionality:
Convert Html into Text.
Description:
Convert a html document to simple plain texts by removing all html tags. This package utilizes regular expressions to strip off html tags. It also offers gettxt() and browse() function, which enables you to get or browse texts at a certain web page.
Demonstration:
The input data is a html file and examples of html code.
At the end of this demonstration, you will what options should be specified in order to import data from website in R.
Function to test (default settings):
browse(URL, ...)
gettxt(URL, encoding = "UTF-8", ...)
htm2txt(htm, list = "\n• ", pagebreak = "\n\n----------\n\n")
Input file:
https://cydalytics.blogspot.com/
and some html codes
browse can only be used for displaying the plain text of a url. You cannot store the data in the displayed structure into R. Still, it is good for checking whether the scraped data is correct or not
Summary:
From the above examples, all the html markups and tags are removed and the outputs are stored in a string form. The original struture of the data is also kept. For exmaple, the order list structure of text3 can still be found but in the form of different rows with the expression, "\n". This imported data is very beautiful and good for using after some text preprocessing.

text4 = htm2txt("Page 1<hr>Page 2", pagebreak = "\n\n[NEW PAGE]\n\n") text4
