# Search Engine Scraper
This node module supports scraping several search engines.
Right now scraping for
* Google
* Google News
* Google News New (https://news.google.com)
* Google Image
* Bing
* Baidu
* Youtube
* Infospace
* Duckduckgo
* Webcrawler
is supported.
This module uses puppeteer. It was created by the Developer of https://github.com/NikolaiT/GoogleScraper, a module with 1800 Stars on Github.
### Technical Notes
Scraping is done with a headless chromium browser using the automation library puppeteer. Puppeteer is a Node library which provides a high-level API to control headless Chrome or Chromium over the DevTools Protocol.
No multithreading is supported for now. Only one scraping worker per `scrape()` call.
If you need to deploy scraping to the cloud (AWS or Azure), you can contact me on hire@incolumitas.com
### Installation and Usage
Install with
```bash
npm install se-scraper
```
Use se-scraper by calling it with a script such as the one below.
```javascript
const se_scraper = require('se-scraper');
let config = {
// the user agent to scrape with
user_agent: 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/70.0.3538.110 Safari/537.36',
// if random_user_agent is set to True, a random user agent is chosen
random_user_agent: false,
// get meta data of scraping in return object
write_meta_data: 'true',
// how long to sleep between requests. a random sleep interval within the range [a,b]
// is drawn before every request. empty string for no sleeping.
sleep_range: '[1,1]',
// which search engine to scrape
search_engine: 'google',
// whether debug information should be printed
debug: 'true',
// whether verbose program output should be printed
verbose: 'false',
// an array of keywords to scrape
keywords: ['incolumitas.com scraping', 'best scraping framework'],
};
se_scraper.scrape(config, (err, response) => {
if (err) { console.error(err) }
/* response object has the following properties:
response.results - json object with the scraping results
response.metadata - json object with metadata information
response.statusCode - status code of the scraping process
*/
console.dir(response.results, {depth: null, colors: true});
});
```
Supported options for the `search_engine` config key:
```javascript
'google'
'google_news_old'
'google_news'
'google_image'
'bing'
'bing_news'
'infospace'
'webcrawler'
'baidu'
'youtube'
'duckduckgo_news'
'google_dr'
```
Output for the above script on my laptop:
```text
Scraper took 4295ms to scrape 2 keywords.
On average ms/keyword: 2147.5ms/keyword
