xpath - Scrapy - Get all data within selector -

if have html in response looks like:

<body>     body text     <div>         div text     </div> </body>

if response.xpath('//body/text()').extract() [body text]

i want everything inside <body> including tags i.e. whole thing:

body text <div>     div text </div>

how can accomplish that?

thank you.

try it:

response.xpath('//body/node()/text()')

or if want tags too:

response.xpath('//body/node()')
