    Web Crawler Security Tool

    A web crawler oriented to information security.

    Last update on tue mar 26 16:25 UTC 2012 The Web Crawler Security is a python based tool to automatically crawl a web site. It is a web crawler oriented to help in penetration testing tasks. The main task of this tool is to search and list all the links (pages and files) in a web site. The crawler has been completely rewritten in v1.0 bringing a lot of improvements: improved the data visualization, interactive option to download files, increased speed in crawling, exports list of found files into a separated file (useful to crawl a site once, then download files and analyse them with FOCA), generate an output log in Common Log Format (CLF), manage basic authentication and more! Many of the old features has been reimplemented and the most interesting one is the capability of the crawler to search for directory indexing.

    Weibo Crawler

    Weibo Crawler

    Python crawler for collecting and downloading Sina Weibo user data

    weibo-crawler is a Python-based data collection tool designed to retrieve information from Sina Weibo user accounts. It automates the process of gathering posts, user profile details, and engagement metrics from one or more target accounts. weibo-crawler can extract comprehensive information about users, including profile attributes such as nickname, follower count, following count, and account metadata. It also captures detailed data about each post, including the content, publishing time, topics, mentions, likes, reposts, and comments. In addition to textual data, the project can download original media from posts, such as images, videos, and Live Photo content. Collected data can be exported to structured formats such as CSV or JSON or stored in databases for further analysis and research. It supports incremental crawling so users can periodically collect only newly published posts, making it useful for ongoing monitoring or dataset updates.

    bilili

    Command-line Bilibili video and danmaku downloader with batch support

    bilili is a command-line tool designed to download videos and related content from the Bilibili video platform. It focuses on enabling users to retrieve user-uploaded videos as well as serialized content such as bangumi episodes directly from the terminal environment. It provides automated downloading capabilities that handle video streams and associated data efficiently while minimizing manual interaction. bilili supports retrieving both the video files and danmaku comments, which are the scrolling overlay comments commonly associated with the platform’s videos. These danmaku comments can be automatically converted into ASS subtitle format for playback compatibility with media players. bilili also implements multi-threaded and segmented downloading techniques to improve download performance and reliability. Additionally, it supports resuming interrupted downloads so partially downloaded content can continue without restarting from the beginning.

    crawler

    crawler

    Collection of JS reverse engineering examples for web scraping study

    crawler is a collection of web scraping and JavaScript reverse engineering examples designed for learning how modern websites protect their data and how those protections can be analyzed. It contains many case studies that demonstrate how to analyze and replicate request parameters, cookies, and encryption logic used by real websites. Each directory in the project focuses on a specific target service or scenario, showing how browser network requests and JavaScript code can be studied to reproduce API calls programmatically. Many examples illustrate techniques such as debugging scripts, intercepting requests, analyzing encrypted parameters, and understanding authentication flows. crawler also explores common anti-scraping defenses and demonstrates how developers can examine them through debugging tools and reverse engineering techniques.

    grab-site

    grab-site

    Web crawler for archiving and backing up sites into WARC archives

    grab-site is an open source web crawling tool designed to archive and back up websites by recursively downloading their content. It works by taking a starting URL and systematically following links across the site, capturing pages and resources and saving them into WARC archive files for long-term preservation. Internally, the crawler uses a fork of the wpull engine to fetch and process web pages efficiently during large-scale crawls. grab-site includes a built-in dashboard that displays real-time crawl activity, including which URLs are currently being processed and how many remain in the queue. Users can dynamically apply ignore patterns during an active crawl, allowing them to skip problematic or unnecessary URLs that could slow down or block the archiving process. grab-site also provides predefined ignore sets for common site structures such as forums and other complex web platforms. Additional mechanisms like duplicate page detection help avoid re-crawling identical content.

    Distributed proxy IP pool for web crawlers using Scrapy and Redis

    HAipproxy is a distributed proxy IP pool system designed to collect, manage, and provide large numbers of proxy addresses for web crawling tasks. It automatically crawls proxy resources from the internet and aggregates them into a centralized pool that can be accessed by distributed spiders and scraping systems. It is built using Python and relies on Scrapy for high-performance crawling while Redis is used for data storage, communication, and task coordination between components. It includes crawlers that discover proxy servers, validators that test proxy availability and performance, and schedulers that manage crawling and validation tasks. HAipproxy aims to maintain a high availability proxy pool with low latency so that scraping frameworks can rotate proxies efficiently and avoid blocking during large-scale data collection. Its architecture supports distributed deployment, allowing multiple crawler workers and validators to run across different machines.

    newspaper4k

    Python library for scraping and analyzing online news articles easily

    Newspaper4k is a Python library designed for extracting, processing, and analyzing news articles from websites. It is a continuation and active fork of the original newspaper3k library, which had stopped receiving updates, with the goal of keeping the ecosystem maintained while adding improvements and bug fixes. It provides developers with tools to automatically download web pages, extract the main article content, and collect associated metadata such as titles, authors, images, and publication dates. Newspaper4k also includes natural language processing capabilities that can generate summaries and identify keywords from extracted article text. Newspaper4k supports both single-article extraction and full news site processing, allowing users to build sources representing entire publications and iterate through their articles. It maintains compatibility with the original project so that existing code written for newspaper3k can continue working with minimal changes.

    pyspider

    pyspider

    A powerful Spider(Web Crawler) system in Python

    pyspider is a powerful Spider(Web Crawler) system in Python. Components are connected by message queue. Every component, including message queue, is running in their own process/thread, and replaceable. That means, when process is slow, you can have many instances of processor and make full use of multiple CPUs, or deploy to multiple machines. This architecture makes pyspider really fast. benchmarking. Since pyspider has various components, you can just run pyspider to start a standalone and third service free instance. Or using MySQL or MongoDB and RabbitMQ to deploy a distributed crawl cluster. To deploy pyspider in product environment, running component in each process and store data in database service is more reliable and flexible. To deploy pyspider components in each single processes, you need at least one database service. pyspider now supports MySQL, MongoDB and PostgreSQL. You can choose one of them.
