Open Source Rust Web Scrapers

rnet is an ergonomic and modular Python HTTP client designed for developers who need advanced control over network requests and protocol behavior. It provides a flexible API for making HTTP requests while supporting both asynchronous and blocking workflows, allowing it to integrate easily into different Python applications and runtimes. rnet focuses on low-level protocol customization, giving users fine-grained control over TLS and HTTP/2 configuration in order to emulate specific browser behaviors. This includes support for TLS fingerprinting techniques such as JA3 and JA4 as well as detailed HTTP/2 settings, enabling more accurate simulation of real client network traffic. It is powered by the underlying wreq engine and is built with performance and modularity in mind. rnet also supports advanced networking capabilities such as proxy rotation, connection pooling, and streaming transfers, which make it suitable for automation, scraping, and high-performance network.

Spider is a high-performance web crawler and web scraping library written in Rust that enables developers to crawl and index websites efficiently. It focuses on speed, concurrency, and reliability by using asynchronous and multi-threaded processing to handle large volumes of web pages. It can rapidly crawl websites to collect links, retrieve page content, and extract structured information from HTML documents. Spider can operate concurrently across many pages, allowing it to gather large datasets in a short period of time. Spider also provides mechanisms for subscribing to crawl events so developers can process page data such as URLs, status codes, or HTML content as it is discovered. It supports advanced capabilities such as headless browser rendering, background crawling tasks, and configurable rules that control crawl depth or ignored paths. These capabilities make the project suitable for building search indexers, data extraction pipelines, & SEO analysis tools.
