Chuscraper v0.18.0 🚀 - The "Easy Syntax" Update

This major update transforms Chuscraper into the most developer-friendly and intuitive web scraping framework in the Python ecosystem. We've removed boilerplate and added natural aliases for a "Zero Friction" experience.

✨ What's New?

🎮 Zero-Boilerplate Startup

You can now start a stealthy browser session directly with keyword arguments. No need to manualy create Config objects.

browser = await zd.start(headless=False, stealth=True, proxy="...")

🔗 Intuitive Aliases & One-Liners

We've added aliases that match popular libraries like Playwright/Puppeteer and helpful one-liners for common tasks.

• page.goto(url): Alias for get().
• await page.title(): Quickly get the page title.
• await page.select_text(selector): Get element text in a single call.

⚡ Browser-Level Shortcuts

Control the browser directly for simple tasks.

• await browser.goto(url): Shortcuts the main tab navigation.
• await browser.scrape(selector): Quickly finds an element.

🛡️ Hardened Navigation

• Anti-Hang Engine: Internal get() logic now includes a 15s default timeout for idle waits, preventing scripts from getting stuck on "noisy" analytics-heavy sites.

📦 Installation

pip install chuscraper --upgrade
