Should be optional but yes I think so!

We should add a dependency on https://github.com/ekalinin/robots.js ?

Maybe. Just a side node: Crawlers could also use a Sitemap and currently the robots.js doesn't parse them.

Hi @sylvinus,
I know that this issue is very old already, but is there any support of robots.txt files and/or sitemaps yet?

@koolma Can you provide more details?

@mike442144 I would like to know if crawlers implemented with this project respect the robots.txt files on the servers crawled, respectivley if they make use of a site map to discover URLs.

Not yet, for the crawler module is not that kind of spider to fetch web pages for search engine use. However, I think it could be another option that visit web pages respect the robots.txt. I don't have much free time now, go ahead to add this feature if you need. We could have further more discussions if any problems.What do you think of it?

This one a beast...

"A streaming parser for sitemap files. Is able to deal with deeply nested sitemaps with 100+ million urls in them."
