Updated CSS selector for upvote & downvote
Due to changes in the layout of LIHKG, this package is no longer able to fetch the upvote and downvote counts. The following code with the updated CSS selector works with the new interface:
##get_upvote
upvote <- html %>% html_nodes("._36ZEkSvpdj_igmog0nluzh") %>%
html_node("._3imUf8qB9LmLpk_t5PjDm4 > div:nth-child(1) > label") %>%
html_text()
##get_downvote
downvote <- html %>% html_nodes("._36ZEkSvpdj_igmog0nluzh") %>%
html_node("._3imUf8qB9LmLpk_t5PjDm4 > div:nth-child(2) > label") %>%
html_text()
Interestingly, it is possible to fetch the supposedly hidden upvote and downvote counts of newly published posts, since the numbers are present in the HTML and only hidden by CSS.
