danielnieto / scrapman Goto Github PK

Hi ,
I am looking for something similar. Just wanted to know if its possible to set and use cookies in the Electron app across webviews, through the module yet?

Thanks

Using parallel requests shows erratic link counts for https://www.nytimes.com. When using 5 concurrent requests with the code below, the following link counts were generated:

358

659

Scrapman.js.txt

Scrapman appears to hang after making requests on Ubuntu 16.04. Checking the processes (ps aux | grep electron), electron still remains running (see picture below). Sending a SIGTERM to electron processes exits the scrapman script (killall electron). Please let me know if you need anymore info.

Does scrapman fully render webpages with javascript? Looks like there are about 300 more links when scraping www.nytimes.com with nightmare, even though both packages use electron:

Nightmare.js.txt

Nice idea on parallel requests btw.

Hi Daniel, I am having trouble getting Scrapman to work in Ubuntu (16.04), just hangs and doesn't provide any callback when calling scrapman.load. I noticed on a prior post you mentioned that you had not tested it on Linux (although that was back in 2017). I have checked that I have a linux electron install so that is not the issue. Thoughts welcome and thanks.
