    haipproxy

    haipproxy

    Distributed proxy IP pool for web crawlers using Scrapy and Redis

    HAipproxy is a distributed proxy IP pool system designed to collect, manage, and provide large numbers of proxy addresses for web crawling tasks. It automatically crawls proxy resources from the internet and aggregates them into a centralized pool that can be accessed by distributed spiders and scraping systems. It is built using Python and relies on Scrapy for high-performance crawling while Redis is used for data storage, communication, and task coordination between components. It includes crawlers that discover proxy servers, validators that test proxy availability and performance, and schedulers that manage crawling and validation tasks. HAipproxy aims to maintain a high availability proxy pool with low latency so that scraping frameworks can rotate proxies efficiently and avoid blocking during large-scale data collection. Its architecture supports distributed deployment, allowing multiple crawler workers and validators to run across different machines.

    Educational Python web scraping case collection for many sites

    lxSpider is a collection of web scraping examples designed primarily for learning and experimentation with data extraction techniques. It gathers numerous crawler implementations that demonstrate how to collect data from a wide range of websites and online services. It focuses heavily on practical cases that illustrate how different platforms handle requests, authentication parameters, and anti-scraping protections. lxSpider includes examples targeting areas such as e-commerce platforms, social media services, content sites, research databases, and information portals. Many of the cases explore techniques related to request analysis, signature generation, and reverse engineering that are often needed when interacting with modern web applications. It also provides supplementary materials and tools used in crawling workflows, such as debugging utilities and reverse-engineering aids.

    newspaper4k

    newspaper4k

    Python library for scraping and analyzing online news articles easily

    Newspaper4k is a Python library designed for extracting, processing, and analyzing news articles from websites. It is a continuation and active fork of the original newspaper3k library, which had stopped receiving updates, with the goal of keeping the ecosystem maintained while adding improvements and bug fixes. It provides developers with tools to automatically download web pages, extract the main article content, and collect associated metadata such as titles, authors, images, and publication dates. Newspaper4k also includes natural language processing capabilities that can generate summaries and identify keywords from extracted article text. Newspaper4k supports both single-article extraction and full news site processing, allowing users to build sources representing entire publications and iterate through their articles. It maintains compatibility with the original project so that existing code written for newspaper3k can continue working with minimal changes.

    pyspider

    pyspider

    A powerful Spider(Web Crawler) system in Python

    pyspider is a powerful Spider(Web Crawler) system in Python. Components are connected by message queue. Every component, including message queue, is running in their own process/thread, and replaceable. That means, when process is slow, you can have many instances of processor and make full use of multiple CPUs, or deploy to multiple machines. This architecture makes pyspider really fast. benchmarking. Since pyspider has various components, you can just run pyspider to start a standalone and third service free instance. Or using MySQL or MongoDB and RabbitMQ to deploy a distributed crawl cluster. To deploy pyspider in product environment, running component in each process and store data in database service is more reliable and flexible. To deploy pyspider components in each single processes, you need at least one database service. pyspider now supports MySQL, MongoDB and PostgreSQL. You can choose one of them.

    xsrfprobe

    xsrfprobe

    Advanced toolkit for detecting and exploiting CSRF vulnerabilities

    XSRFProbe is an advanced security auditing toolkit designed to detect and analyze Cross Site Request Forgery (CSRF/XSRF) vulnerabilities in web applications. It uses an automated crawling engine that continuously scans a target application, collects forms and endpoints, and evaluates them for potential CSRF weaknesses. XSRFProbe performs numerous systematic checks to determine whether a web endpoint is vulnerable, including inspection of anti-CSRF tokens, cookie validation behavior, and request forgery scenarios. It also analyzes the strength and randomness of security tokens using algorithms such as entropy calculations to determine whether tokens can be predicted or forged. When a vulnerability is discovered, it can automatically generate proof-of-concept payloads that demonstrate how the flaw could be exploited in a real attack scenario. XSRFProbe provides a highly automated workflow while still allowing users to customize scanning behavior and configuration settings.
