defmodule Crawlie do @moduledoc """ The simple Elixir web crawler. """ require Logger alias Experimental.GenStage alias Experimental.Flow alias Crawlie.Options alias Crawlie.Page alias Crawlie.Response alias Crawlie.Stage.UrlManager @spec crawl(Stream.t, module, Keyword.t) :: Flow.t @doc """ Crawls the urls provided in `source`, using the `Crawlie.ParserLogic` provided in `parser_logic`. The `options` are used to tweak the crawler's behaviour. You can use most of the options for [HttPoison](https://hexdocs.pm/httpoison/HTTPoison.html#request/5), as well as Crawlie specific options. ## arguments - `source` - a `Stream` or an `Enum` containing the urls to crawl - `parser_logic`- a `Crawlie.ParserLogic` behaviour implementation - `options` - a Keyword List of options ## Crawlie specific options - `:http_client` - module implementing the `Crawlie.HttpClient` behaviour to be used to make the requests. If not provided, will default to `Crawlie.HttpClient.HTTPoisonClient`. - `:mock_client_fun` - If you're using the `Crawlie.HttpClient.MockClient`, this would be the `url -> {:ok, body :: String.t} | {:error, term}` function simulating making the requests. for details - `:max_depth` - maximum crawling "depth". `0` by default. - `:max_retries` - maximum amount of tries Crawlie should try to fetch any individual page before giving up. By default `3`. - `:fetch_phase` - `Flow` partition configuration for the fetching phase of the crawling `Flow`. It should be a Keyword List containing any subset of `:min_demand`, `:max_demand` and `:stages` properties. For the meaning of these options see [Flow documentation](https://hexdocs.pm/gen_stage/Experimental.Flow.html) - `:process_phase` - same as `:fetch_phase`, but for the processing (page parsing, data and link extraction) part of the process - `:pqueue_module` - One of [pqueue](https://github.com/okeuday/pqueue) implementations: `:pqueue`, `:pqueue2`, `:pqueue3`, `:pqueue4`. Different implementation have different performance characteristics and allow for different `:max_depth` values. Consult [docs](https://github.com/okeuday/pqueue) for details. By default using `:pqueue3` - good performance and allowing arbitrary `:max_depth` values.
