Dude (dude uncomplicated data extraction) is a very simple framework for writing web scrapers using Python decorators.
The design, inspired by Flask, was to easily build a web scraper in just a few lines of code. Dude has an easy-to-learn syntax.
The simplest web scraper will look like this:
```python
from dude import select
@select(css="a")
def get_link(element):
return {"url": element.get_attribute("href")}
```
dude supports multiple parser backends:
- playwright
- lxml
- parsel
- beautifulsoup
- pyppeteer
- selenium
PHPScraper is a universal web-util for PHP.
The main goal is to get stuff done instead of getting distracted with selectors, preparing &
converting data structures, etc.
Instead, you can just go to a website and get the relevant information for your project.
PHPScraper is a minimalistic scraper framework that is built on top of other popular scraping tools.
Features:
- Direct access to page basic features like: Meta data, Links, Images, Headings, Content, Keywords etc.
- File downloading.
- RSS, Sitemap and other feed processing.
- CSV, XML and JSON file processing.
```python
from dude import select
"""
This example demonstrates how to use Parsel + async HTTPX
To access an attribute, use:
selector.attrib["href"]
You can also access an attribute using the ::attr(name) pseudo-element, for example "a::attr(href)", then:
selector.get()
To get the text, use ::text pseudo-element, then:
selector.get()
"""
@select(css="a.url", priority=2)
async def result_url(selector):
return {"url": selector.attrib["href"]}
# Option to get url using ::attr(name) pseudo-element
@select(css="a.url::attr(href)", priority=2)
async def result_url2(selector):
return {"url2": selector.get()}
@select(css=".title::text", priority=1)
async def result_title(selector):
return {"title": selector.get()}
@select(css=".description::text", priority=0)
async def result_description(selector):
return {"description": selector.get()}

$web->go('https://test-pages.phpscraper.de/content/selectors.html');
// elements can be found using XPath:
echo $web->filter("//*[@id='by-id']")->text(); // "Content by ID"
// or pre-defined variables covering basic page data:
