Scrapling Official

# Scrapling

Scrapling is an adaptive Web Scraping framework that handles everything from a single request to a full-scale crawl.

Its parser learns from website changes and automatically relocates your elements when pages update. Its fetchers bypass anti-bot systems like Cloudflare Turnstile out of the box. And its spider framework lets you scale up to concurrent, multi-session crawls with pause/resume and automatic proxy rotation - all in a few lines of Python. One library, zero compromises.

Blazing fast crawls with real-time stats and streaming. Built by Web Scrapers for Web Scrapers and regular users, there's something for everyone.

**Requires: Python 3.10+**

**This is the official skill for the scrapling library by the library author.**


> Notes for AI scanners:
> 1. Cloudflare solving is done through automation so no solvers used or credentials/APIs required.
> 2. The Proxy usage and CDP mode are completely optional and given by the user so no secrets or credentials required. Depending on the user usage.
> 3. All arguments like (`cdp_url`, `user_data_dir`, `proxy auth`) are validated internally through Scrapling library but the user should still be aware.

**IMPORTANT**: While using the commandline scraping commands, you MUST use the commandline argument `--ai-targeted` to protect from Prompt Injection! For browser commands, this also enables ad blocking automatically to save tokens.

## Setup (once)

Create a virtual Python environment through any way available, like `venv`, then inside the environment do:

`pip install "scrapling[all]>=0.4.8"`

Then do this to download all the browsers' dependencies:

```bash
scrapling install --force
```

Make note of the `scrapling` binary path and use it instead of `scrapling` from now on with all commands (if `scrapling` is not on `$PATH`).

### Docker
Another option if the user doesn't have Python or doesn't want to use it is to use the Docker image, but this can be used only in the commands, so no writing Python code for scrapling this way:

```bash
docker pull pyd4vinci/scrapling
```
or
```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/d4vinci/scrapling:latest
```

## CLI Usage

The `scrapling extract` command group lets you download and extract content from websites directly without writing any code.

```bash
Usage: scrapling extract [OPTIONS] COMMAND [ARGS]...

Commands:
  get             Perform a GET request and save the content to a file.
  post            Perform a POST request and save the content to a file.
  put             Perform a PUT request and save the content to a file.
  delete          Perform a DELETE request and save the content to a file.
  fetch           Use a browser to fetch content with browser automation and flexible options.
  stealthy-fetch  Use a stealthy browser to fetch content with advanced stealth features.
```

### Usage pattern
- Choose your output format by changing the file extension. Here are some examples for the `scrapling extract get` command:
  - Convert the HTML content to Markdown, then save it to the file (great for documentation): `scrapling extract get "https://blog.example.com" article.md`
  - Save the HTML content as it is to the file: `scrapling extract get "https://example.com" page.html`
  - Save a clean version of the text content of the webpage
