The package htmldf contains a single function
html_df() which accepts a vector of urls as an input and
from each will attempt to download each page, extract and parse the
html. The result is returned as a tibble where each row
corresponds to a document, and the columns contain page attributes and
metadata extracted from the html, including:
To install the CRAN version of the package:
install.packages('htmldf')To install the development version of the package:
remotes::install_github('alastairrushworth/htmldf')First define a vector of URLs you want to gather information from.
The function html_df() returns a tibble where
each row corresponds to a webpage, and each column corresponds to an
attribute of that webpage:

column tables. html_df will attempt to coerce
each table to tibble - where that isn’t possible, the raw
