It is versatile, allowing you to write your own specialized tasks quickly and easily. === Features * Choose the links to follow on each page with +focus_crawl+ * Multi-threaded design for high performance * Tracks +301+ HTTP redirects * Allows exclusion of URLs based on regular expressions * Records response time for each page * Obey _robots.txt_ directives (optional, but recommended) * In-memory or persistent storage of pages during crawl, provided by Moneta[https://github.com/moneta-rb/moneta] * Inherits OpenURI behavior (redirects, automatic charset and encoding detection, proxy configuration options). <b>Do you have an idea or a suggestion? {Open an issue and talk about it}[https://github.com/brutuscat/medusa-crawler/issues/new]</b> === Examples Medusa is versatile and to be used programatically, you can start with one or multiple URIs: require 'medusa' Medusa.crawl('https://www.example.com', depth_limit: 2) Or you can pass a block and it will yield the crawler back, to manage configuration or drive its crawling focus: require 'medusa' Medusa.crawl('https://www.example.com', depth_limit: 2) do |crawler| crawler.discard_page_bodies = some_flag # Persist all the pages state across crawl-runs. crawler.clear_on_startup = false crawler.storage = Medusa::Storage.Moneta(:Redis, 'redis://redis.host.name:6379/0') crawler.skip_links_like(/private/) crawler.on_pages_like(/public/) do |page| logger.debug "[public page] #{page.url} took #{page.response_time} found #{page.links.count}" end # Use an arbitrary logic, page by page, to continue customize the crawling. crawler.focus_crawl(/public/) do |page| page.links.first end end
