Features

  • 🔥 Asynchronous Synchronous - Just change the mode property to toggle asynchronous or synchronous crawling mode.
  • ⚙️Multiple uses - Supports crawling dynamic pages, static pages, interface data, files and polling operations.
  • ⚒️ Control page - Crawling dynamic pages supports automated operations, keyboard input, event operations, etc.
  • 🖋️ Flexible writing style - The same crawling API can be adapted to multiple configurations, and each configuration method is very unique.
  • ⏱️ Interval Crawling - No interval, fixed interval and random interval to generate or avoid high concurrent crawling.
  • 🔄 Failed Retry - Avoid crawling failure due to short-term problems, and customize the number of retries.
  • ➡️ Proxy Rotation - Auto-rotate proxies with failure retry, custom error times and HTTP status codes.
  • 👀 Device Fingerprinting - Zero configuration or custom configuration, avoid fingerprinting to identify and track us from different locations.
  • 🚀 Priority Queue - According to the priority of a single crawling target, it can be crawled ahead of other targets.
  • 🧾 crawl log - Logs the crawl and uses colored string reminders at the terminal.
  • 🦾 TypeScript - Own types, implement complete types through generics.

Install

Take NPM as an example:

npm install x-crawl

Example

Take the automatic acquisition of some photos of experiences and homes around the world every day as an example:

// 1. Import module ES/CJS
import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

// 2. Create a crawler instance
const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ maxRetry: 3, intervalTime: { max: 2000, min: 1000 } })

// 3. Set the crawling task
/*
  Call the startPolling API to start the polling function,
  and the callback function will be called every other day
*/
myXCrawl.startPolling({ d: 1 }, async (count, stopPolling) => {
  // Call the crawlPage API to crawl the page
  const pageResults = await myXCrawl.crawlPage({
    targets: [
      'https://www.airbnb.cn/s/*/experiences',
      'https://www.airbnb.cn/s/plus_homes'
    ],
    viewport: { width: 1920, height: 1080 }
  })

  // Obtain the image URL by traversing the crawled page results
  const imgUrls = []
  for (const item of pageResults) {
    const { id } = item
    const { page } = item.data
    const elSelector = id === 1 ? '.i9cqrtb' : '.c4mnd7m'

    // wait for the page element to appear
    await page.waitForSelector(elSelector)

    // Get the URL of the page image
    const urls = await page.$$eval(`${elSelector} picture img`, (imgEls) =>
      imgEls.map((item) => item.src)
    )
    imgUrls.push(...urls.slice(0, 6))

    // close the page
    page.close()
  }

  // Call crawlFile API to crawl pictures
  await myXCrawl.crawlFile({ targets: imgUrls, storeDirs: './upload' })
})

running result:

Note: Please do not crawl randomly, you can check the robots.txt protocol before crawling. The class name of the website may change, this is just to demonstrate how to use x-crawl.

Core Concepts

Create Application

An Example of a Crawler Application

Create a new application instance via xCrawl():

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  // options
})

Related options can refer to XCrawlBaseConfig .

Crawl Mode

A crawler application instance has two crawling modes: asynchronous/synchronous, and each crawler instance can only choose one of them.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  mode: 'async'
})

The mode option defaults to async .

  • async: Asynchronous crawling target, no need to wait for the current crawling target to complete, then proceed to the next crawling target
  • sync: Synchronize the crawling target. You need to wait for the completion of this crawling target before proceeding to the next crawling target

If there is an interval time set, it is necessary to wait for the end of the interval time before crawling the next target.

Note: The crawling process of the crawling API is performed separately, and this mode is only valid for batch crawling targets.

Default Device Fingerprint

A property can be used to control whether to use the default random fingerprint, or you can configure a custom fingerprint through subsequent crawling.

Device fingerprinting is set up to avoid identifying and tracking us from different locations through fingerprinting.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  enableRandomFingerprint: true
})

The enableRandomFingerprint option defaults to false.

  • true: Enable random device fingerprinting. The fingerprint configuration of the target can be specified through advanced configuration or detailed target configuration.
  • false: Turns off random device fingerprinting, does not affect the fingerprint configuration specified for the target by advanced configuration or detailed target configuration.

Multiple Crawler Application Instances

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl1 = xCrawl({
  // options
})

const myXCrawl2 = xCrawl({
  // options
})

Crawl Page

Crawl a page via crawlPage() .

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com').then((res) => {
  const { browser, page } = res.data

  // Close the browser
  browser.close()
})

Browser Instance

When you call crawlPage API to crawl pages in the same crawler instance, the browser instance used is the same, because the crawlPage API of the browser instance in the same crawler instance is shared. For specific usage, please refer to Browser.

Note: The browser will keep running and the file will not be terminated. If you want to stop, you can execute browser.close() to close it. Do not call crawlPage or page if you need to use it later. Because the crawlPage API of the browser instance in the same crawler instance is shared.

Page Instance

When you call crawlPage API to crawl pages in the same crawler instance, a new page instance will be generated from the browser instance. For specific usage, please refer to Page.

The browser instance will retain a reference to the page instance. If it is no longer used in the future, the page instance needs to be closed by itself, otherwise it will cause a memory leak.

Take Screenshot

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com').then(async (res) => {
  const { browser, page } = res.data

  // Get a screenshot of the rendered page
  await page.screenshot({ path: './upload/page.png' })

  console.log('Screen capture is complete')

  browser.close()
})

life Cycle

Lifecycle functions owned by the crawlPage API:

  • onCrawlItemComplete: Call back when each crawl is complete
onCrawlItemComplete

In the onCrawlItemComplete function, you can get the results of each crawled goal in advance.

Open Browser

Disable running the browser in headless mode.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  maxRetry: 3,
  // Cancel running the browser in headless mode
  crawlPage: { puppeteerLaunch: { headless: false } }
})

myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com').then((res) => {})

Crawl HTML

Crawl interface data through crawlHTML() .

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ intervalTime: { max: 3000, min: 1000 } })

myXCrawl
  .crawlHTML([
    'https://www.example.com/html-1',
    'https://www.example.com/html-2'
  ])
  .then((res) => {
    // deal with
  })

life Cycle

Life cycle functions owned by crawlHTML API:

  • onCrawlItemComplete: Call back when each crawl is complete
onCrawlItemComplete

In the onCrawlItemComplete function, you can get the results of each crawled goal in advance.

Crawl Interface

Crawl interface data through crawlData() .

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ intervalTime: { max: 3000, min: 1000 } })

const targets = [
  'https://www.example.com/api-1',
  'https://www.example.com/api-2',
  {
    url: 'https://www.example.com/api-3',
    method: 'POST',
    data: { name: 'coderhxl' }
  }
]

myXCrawl.crawlData({ targets }).then((res) => {
  // deal with
})

life Cycle

Life cycle functions owned by crawlData API:

  • onCrawlItemComplete: Call back when each crawl is complete
onCrawlItemComplete

In the onCrawlItemComplete function, you can get the results of each crawled goal in advance.

Crawl Files

Crawl file data via crawlFile() .

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ intervalTime: { max: 3000, min: 1000 } })

myXCrawl
  .crawlFile({
    targets: [
      'https://www.example.com/file-1',
      'https://www.example.com/file-2'
    ],
    storeDirs: './upload' // storage folder
  })
  .then((res) => {
    console.log(res)
  })

life Cycle

Life cycle functions owned by crawlFile API:

  • onCrawlItemComplete: Call back when each crawl is complete

  • onBeforeSaveItemFile: Callback before saving the file

onCrawlItemComplete

In the onCrawlItemComplete function, you can get the results of each crawled goal in advance.

onBeforeSaveItemFile

In the onBeforeSaveItemFile function, you can get the Buffer type file, you can process the Buffer, and then you need to return a Promise, and the resolve is a Buffer, which will replace the obtained Buffer and store it in the file.

Resize Picture

Use the sharp library to resize the images to be crawled:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'
import sharp from 'sharp'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl
  .crawlFile({
    targets: [
      'https://www.example.com/file-1.jpg',
      'https://www.example.com/file-2.jpg'
    ],
    onBeforeSaveItemFile(info) {
      return sharp(info.data).resize(200).toBuffer()
    }
  })
  .then((res) => {
    res.forEach((item) => {
      console.log(item.data?.data.isSuccess)
    })
  })

Start Polling

Start a polling crawl with startPolling() .

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  timeout: 10000,
  intervalTime: { max: 3000, min: 1000 }
})

myXCrawl.startPolling({ h: 2, m: 30 }, async (count, stopPolling) => {
  // will be executed every two and a half hours
  // crawlPage/crawlData/crawlFile
  const res = await myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com')
  res.data.page.close()
})

Using crawlPage in polling Note: The browser instance will retain a reference to the page instance. If it is no longer used in the future, you need to close the page instance yourself, otherwise it will cause a memory leak.

Callback function parameters:

  • The count attribute records the current number of polling operations.
  • stopPolling is a callback function, calling it can terminate subsequent polling operations.

Config Priority

Some common configurations can be set in these three places:

  • Application instance configuration (global)
  • Advanced configuration (partial)
  • Detailed target configuration (separately)

The priority is: detailed target configuration > advanced configuration > application instance configuration

Take crawlPage to crawl two pages as an example:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

// Application instance configurationconst testXCrawl = xCrawl({
  proxy: {
    urls: [
      'https://www.example.com/proxy-1',
      'https://www.example.com/proxy-2',
      'https://www.example.com/proxy-3'
    ],
    switchByErrorCount: 3,
    switchByHttpStatus: [401, 403]
  }
})

// Advanced configuration
testXCrawl
  .crawlPage({
    targets: [
      'https://www.example.com/page-1',
      'https://www.example.com/page-2',
      // Detailed target configuration
      {
        url: 'https://www.example.com/page-3',
        proxy: { urls: ['https://www.example.com/proxy-5'] }
      }
    ],
    maxRetry: 10,
    proxy: {
      urls: [
        'https://www.example.com/proxy-3',
        'https://www.example.com/proxy-4'
      ],
      switchByErrorCount: 3,
      switchByHttpStatus: [401, 403]
    }
  })
  .then((res) => {})
})

In the above example, Proxy is set in Application Instance Configuration, Advanced Configuration and Detailed Target Configuration, page3 will use its own proxy configuration, page1 and page2 will use the proxy configuration of the advanced configuration.

Interval Time

The interval time can prevent too much concurrency and avoid too much pressure on the server.

The crawling interval is controlled by the crawling API itself, not by the crawler instance.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl
  .crawlData({
    targets: ['https://www.example.com/api-1', 'https://www.example.com/api-2'],
    intervalTime: { max: 2000, min: 1000 }
  })
  .then((res) => {})

The intervalTime option defaults to undefined . If there is a setting value, it will wait for a period of time before requesting, which can prevent too much concurrency and avoid too much pressure on the server.

  • number: The time that must wait before each crawl target is fixed
  • IntervalTime: Take a random value among max and min

Note: The first crawl target will not trigger the interval.

Fail Retry

It can avoid crawling failure due to temporary problems, and will wait for the end of this round of crawling targets to crawl again.

You can create crawler application instance, advanced usage, detailed target these three places Settings.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl
  .crawlData({ url: 'https://www.example.com/api', maxRetry: 9 })
  .then((res) => {})

The maxRetry attribute determines how many times to retry.

Rotate Proxy

With failed retries, custom error times and HTTP status codes, the proxy is automatically rotated for crawling targets.

You can create crawler application instance, advanced usage, detailed target these three places Settings.

Take crawlPage as an example:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const testXCrawl = xCrawl()

testXCrawl
  .crawlPage({
    targets: [
      'https://www.example.com/page-1',
      'https://www.example.com/page-2',
      'https://www.example.com/page-3',
      'https://www.example.com/page-4',
      // Undelegate for this target
      { url: 'https://www.example.com/page-6', proxy: null },
      // Set the proxy individually for this target
      {
        url: 'https://www.example.com/page-6',
        proxy: {
          urls: [
            'https://www.example.com/proxy-4',
            'https://www.example.com/proxy-5'
          ],
          switchByErrorCount: 3
        }
      }
    ],
    maxRetry: 10,
    // Set the proxy uniformly for this target
    proxy: {
      urls: [
        'https://www.example.com/proxy-1',
        'https://www.example.com/proxy-2',
        'https://www.example.com/proxy-3'
      ],
      switchByErrorCount: 3,
      switchByHttpStatus: [401, 403]
    }
  })
  .then((res) => {})

Note: This function needs to cooperate with failure retry to work normally.

Custom Device Fingerprint

Customize the configuration of device fingerprints to avoid identifying and tracking us from different locations through fingerprint recognition.

Multiple information can be passed in fingerprints through advanced usage, and internally it will help you randomly assign each target to targets. It is also possible to set a specific fingerprint for a target directly with the detailed target configuration.

Take crawlPage as an example:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ intervalTime: { max: 5000, min: 3000 } })

myXCrawl.crawlPage({
  targets: [
    'https://www.example.com/page-1',
    'https://www.example.com/page-2',
    'https://www.example.com/page-3',
    // Cancel the fingerprint for this target
    { url: 'https://www.example.com/page-4', fingerprint: null },
    // Set a separate fingerprint for this target
    {
      url: 'https://www.example.com/page-5',
      fingerprint: {
        mobile: 'random',
        platform: 'Windows',
        acceptLanguage: `zh-CN,zh;q=0.9,en;q=0.8`,
        userAgent: {
          value:

            { name: 'Safari', maxMinorVersion: 36, maxPatchVersion: 2333 }
          ]
        }
      }
    }
  ],
  // Set fingerprints uniformly for this target
  fingerprints: [
    // Device fingerprint 1

            maxMinorVersion: 36,
            maxPatchVersion: 5000
          }
        ]
      }

            minMajorVersion: 43,
            maxMinorVersion: 10,
            maxPatchVersion: 5000
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
})

For more fingerprint options, you can go to the corresponding configuration to view.

Priority Queue

A priority queue allows a crawl target to be sent first.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl
  .crawlData([
    { url: 'https://www.example.com/api-1', priority: 1 },
    { url: 'https://www.example.com/api-2', priority: 10 },
    { url: 'https://www.example.com/api-3', priority: 8 }
  ])
  .then((res) => {})

The larger the value of the priority attribute, the higher the priority in the current crawling queue.

Print information

The crawled print information consists of start (displaying mode and total number), process (displaying number and how long to wait), and result (displaying success and failure information). There will be something like 1-page-2 in front of each piece of information. The first 1 represents the first crawler instance, the middle page represents the API type, and the following 2 represents the second page of the first crawler instance. Do this The purpose is to better distinguish which API the information comes from.

When you do not want to display the crawled information in the terminal, you can control the display or hiding through the options.

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

// Only hide the process, start and result display
const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ log: { process: false } })

// Hide all information
const myXCrawl = xCrawl({ log: false })

The log option accepts an object or boolean type:

  • Boolean

    • true: show all
    • false: hide all

  • object

    • start: control the start information
    • process: control of process information
    • result: control of result information

About Results

Each crawl target will generate a detail object, which will contain the following properties:

  • id: Generated according to the order of crawling targets, if there is a priority, it will be generated according to the priority
  • isSuccess: Whether to crawl successfully
  • maxRetry: The maximum number of retries for this crawling target
  • retryCount: The number of times the crawling target has been retried
  • proxyDetails: record the proxy situation
  • crawlErrorQueue: Error collection of the crawl target
  • data: the crawling data of the crawling target

If it is a specific configuration, it will automatically determine whether the details object is stored in an array according to the configuration method you choose, and return the array, otherwise return the details object. Already fits types perfectly in TypeScript.

Details about configuration methods and results are as follows: crawlPage config, crawlHTML config, crawlData config, crawlFile config.

TypeScript

Type systems like TypeScript can detect many common errors at compile time through static analysis. This reduces runtime errors and gives us more confidence when refactoring large projects. TypeScript also improves the development experience and efficiency through type-based auto-completion in the IDE.

x-crawl itself is written in TypeScript and supports TypeScript. Comes with a type declaration file, out of the box.

API

xCrawl

Create a crawler instance by calling xCrawl. The crawl target is maintained internally by the instance method, not by the instance.

Type

The xCrawl API is a function.

function xCrawl(baseConfig?: XCrawlBaseConfig): XCrawlInstance

Parameter Type:

Return value type:

Example

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

// xCrawl API
const myXCrawl = xCrawl({
  baseUrl: 'https://www.example.com',
  timeout: 10000,
  intervalTime: { max: 2000, min: 1000 }
})

Note: To avoid repeated creation of instances in subsequent examples, myXCrawl here will be the crawler instance in the crawlPage/crawlData/crawlFile example.

crawlPage

crawlPage is the method of a crawler instance, usually used to crawl a dynamic page.

Type

The crawlPage API is a function. A type is an overloaded function which can be called (in terms of type) with different configuration parameters.

type crawlPage = {
  (
    config: string,
    callback?: (res: CrawlPageSingleResult) => void
  ): Promise<CrawlPageSingleResult>

  (
    config: CrawlPageDetailTargetConfig,
    callback?: (res: CrawlPageSingleResult) => void
  ): Promise<CrawlPageSingleResult>

  (
    config: (string | CrawlPageDetailTargetConfig)[],
    callback?: (res: CrawlPageSingleResult[]) => void
  ): Promise<CrawlPageSingleResult[]>

  (
    config: CrawlPageAdvancedConfig,
    callback?: (res: CrawlPageSingleResult[]) => void
  ): Promise<CrawlPageSingleResult[]>
}

Parameter Type:

Return value type:

Example

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

// crawlPage API
myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com').then((res) => {
  const { browser, page } = res.data

  // Close the browser
  browser.close()
})

Config

There are 4 types:

  • Simple target config - string
  • Detailed target config - CrawlPageDetailTargetConfig
  • Mixed target array config - (string | CrawlPageDetailTargetConfig)[]
  • Advanced config - CrawlPageAdvancedConfig
Simple target config - string

This is a simple target configuration. if you just want to simply crawl this page, you can try this way of writing:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl.crawlPage('https://www.example.com').then((res) => {})

The res you get will be an object.

Detailed target config - CrawlPageDetailTargetConfig

This is the detailed target configuration. if you want to crawl this page and need to retry on failure, you can try this way of writing:

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

myXCrawl
  .crawlPage({
    url: 'https://www.example.com',
    proxy: { urls: ['xxx'] },
    maxRetry: 1

FAQ

The relationship between crawlPage API and puppeteer

The crawlPage API has built-in puppeteer, you only need to pass in some configuration options to let x-crawl help you simplify the operation and get the intact Brower instance and Page instance , x-crawl does not override it.

Using crawlPage API causes the program to crash

If you need to crawl many pages in one crawlPage, it is recommended that after crawling each page, use onCrawlItemComplete life cycle function to process the results of each target and close the page instance. If no shutdown operation is performed, then The program may crash due to too many pages being opened (related to the performance of the device itself).

import xCrawl from 'x-crawl'

const myXCrawl = xCrawl()

// Use the advanced configuration mode
myXCrawl.crawlPage({
  targets: [
    'https://www.example.com/page-1',
    'https://www.example.com/page-2',
    'https://www.example.com/page-3',
    'https://www.example.com/page-4',
    'https://www.example.com/page-5',
    'https://www.example.com/page-6'
  ],
  onCrawlItemComplete(crawlPageSingleResult) {
    const { page } = crawlPageSingleResult.data

    page.close()
  }
})
