# WWW-Crawler-Mojo WWW::Crawler::Mojo is a web crawling framework written in Perl on top of mojo toolkit, allowing you to write your own crawler rapidly. ***This software is considered to be alpha quality and isn't recommended for regular usage.*** ## Features * Easy to rule your crawler. * Allows to use [Mojo::URL] for URL manipulations, [Mojo::Message::Response] for response manipulation and [Mojo::DOM] for DOM inspection. * Internally uses [Mojo::UserAgent] which supports non-blocking I/O HTTP and WebSocket with IPv6, TLS, SNI, IDNA, HTTP/SOCKS5 proxy, Comet (long polling), keep-alive, connection pooling, timeout, cookie, multipart, gzip compression. * Throttle the connection with max connection and max connection per host options. * Depth detection. * Tracks 301 HTTP redirects. * Network error detection. * Retry with your own rules. * Shuffling the queue periodically. * Peeping server for crawler development. * Crawl beyond basic authentication. * Form submitting emulation. [Mojo::URL]:http://mojolicio.us/perldoc/Mojo/URL [Mojo::DOM]:http://mojolicio.us/perldoc/Mojo/DOM [Mojo::Message::Response]:http://mojolicio.us/perldoc/Mojo/Message/Response [Mojo::UserAgent]:http://mojolicio.us/perldoc/Mojo/UserAgent ## Requirements * Perl 5.14 * Mojolicious 5.75 ## Synopsis use WWW::Crawler::Mojo; my $bot = WWW::Crawler::Mojo->new; $bot->on(res => sub { my ($bot, $scrape, $job, $res) = @_; $scrape->() if (...); # collect URLs from this document }); $bot->on(refer => sub { my ($bot, $enqueue, $job, $context) = @_; $enqueue->() if (...); # enqueue this job }); $bot->enqueue('http://example.com/'); $bot->crawl; ## Installation $ cpanm WWW::Crawler::Mojo ## Documentation * [WWW::Crawler::Mojo](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?WWW%3A%3ACrawler%3A%3AMojo) * [WWW::Crawler::Mojo::Job](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?WWW%3A%3ACrawler%3A%3AMojo%3A%3AJob) * [WWW::Crawler::Mojo::UserAgent](http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?WWW%3A%3ACrawler%3A%3AMojo%3A%3AUserAgent) ## Examples Restrict enqueuing URLs by depth. $bot->on(refer => sub { my ($bot, $enqueue, $job, $context) = @_; $enqueue->() if ($job->depth < 5); }); Restrict enqueuing URLs by host. $bot->on(refer => sub { my ($bot, $enqueue, $job, $context) = @_; $enqueue->() if $job->resolved_uri->host eq 'example.com'; }); Restrict enqueuing URLs by referrer's host. $bot->on(refer => sub { my ($bot, $enqueue, $job, $context) = @_; $enqueue->() if $job->referrer->resolved_uri->host eq 'example.com'; }); Excepting enqueuing URLs by path. $bot->on(refer => sub { my ($bot, $enqueue, $job, $context) = @_; $enqueue->() unless ($job->resolved_uri->path =~ qr{^/foo/}); }); Restricting following URLs by host on response event. $bot->on(res => sub { my ($bot, $scrape, $job, $res) = @_; $scrape->() if ($job->resolved_uri->host eq 'example.com'); }); Speed up. $bot->max_conn(5); $bot->max_conn_per_host(5); Authentication. The user agent automatically reuses the credential for the host. $bot->enqueue('http://jamadam:password@example.com'); You can fulfill any prerequisites such as login form submittion so that a login session will be established with cookie or something. my $bot = WWW::Crawler::Mojo->new; $bot->ua->post('http://example.com/admin/login', form => { username => 'jamadam', password => 'password', }); $bot->enqueue('http://example.com/admin/'); $bot->crawl By peeping server, you can peep into the crawler attributes such as queue during crawling. $bot->peeping_port(3030); # Following URL will be available # http://127.0.0.1:3030//dumper/queue ## Other examples * [WWW-Flatten](https://github.com/jamadam/WWW-Flatten) * See the scripts under the example directory. ## Copyright Copyright (C) jamadam This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself.
