Built with ethics and efficiency in mind. Features - Website crawling with Pathik - Content analysis using LLMs (Groq, OpenAI, etc.) - Structured data extraction from web pages - PostgreSQL storage of crawled data - Kafka integration for scalable processing Ethical Crawling OpenCrawl is built with ethical web crawling in mind. Our crawler, Pathik, strictly adheres to website robots.txt files and respects website crawling policies. This means: - Only crawls websites that explicitly allow crawling through robots.txt - Respects crawl rate limits and delays between requests - Follows website-specific crawling rules - Helps maintain a sustainable and respectful web ecosystem This approach ensures: - Safe and secure crawling practices - Respect for website owners' preferences - Reduced server load on target websites - Compliance with web standards and best practices Efficient Data Processing OpenCrawl uses Kafka for high-throughput data processing, enabling efficient and ethical crawling at scale: Why Kafka? - Parallel Processing : Process multiple URLs simultaneously while respecting rate limits - Stream Processing : Real-time analysis of crawled content - Scalability : Handle large volumes of data without overwhelming target servers - Reliability : Ensure no data is lost during processing - Backpressure ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/janhq","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/janhq/OpenCrawl/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
