colly VS google-search-results-php

SerpApi focuses on scraping search results. That's why we need extra help to scrape individual sites. We'll use GoColly package.

Interesting. Can you compare it to colly? [0]

Last time I looked it was the most popular choice for scraping in Go and I have some projects using it.

Is it similar? Does it have more/less features or is it more suited for a different use case? (Which one?)

Sounds cool, but how is this different from Colly: https://github.com/gocolly/colly?

We could write some snippets mixing all these, but the best option in real life is to use a tool with it all, like Scrapy, pyspider, node-crawler (Node.js), or Colly (Go).

Unless you're specifically trying to do it using net/http, I recommend using colly. I've used it in a few scrappers and I love it!

In this blog, we will be covering the basics of web scraping in Go using the Fiber and Colly frameworks. Colly is an open-source web scraping framework written in Go. It provides a simple and flexible API for performing web scraping tasks, making it a popular choice among Go developers. Colly uses Go's concurrency features to efficiently handle multiple requests and extract data from websites. It offers a wide range of customization options, including the ability to set request headers, handle cookies, follow redirects, and more

github.com/gocolly/colly - popular and widely-used library for web scraping in Go. It provides a higher-level API than net/http and makes it easier to extract information from websites. It also provides features such as concurrency, automatic request retries, and support for cookies and sessions.

automatic-images-classifier-generator is a machine learning tool written in Python using SerpApi, Pytorch, FastAPI, and Couchbase to provide automated large dataset creation, automated training and testing of deep learning models with the ability to tweak algorithms, storing the structure and results of neural networks all in one place.

In previous weeks, we have created an object in the database, and stored machine learning training, testing, and dataset information within it. This week we will do the final step necessary to release the source code to the public, unit testing machine learning tool. The metrics in these tests will give an idea about which ml models can be created, and which ones cannot be. These unit tests should not be confused with testing machine learning models themselves. These tests are checking the scalability aspect of machine learning and not the individual ML Models. I will talk about the source code release next week in the conclusion part.

We've built https://serpapi.com

We've invented the industry what you referring as "data type specific APIs"; APIs that abstract away all proxies issues, captcha solvings, various layouts support, even scrapping-related legal issues, and much more to a clean JSON response every single call. It was a lot of work but our success rate and response times are now rivaling non-scraping commercial APIs: https://serpapi.com/status

I think the next battle will be still legal despite all the wins in favor of scrapping public pages and common sense understanding this is the way to go. The EFF has been doing an amazing work in this world and we are proud to be a significant yearly contributor to the EFF.

This week, we will explore the combined capabilities of SerpApi’s powerful Google Images Results Scraper API on top of FastAPI’s fast to build web framework. We will start by creating a simple image database creator with sync method, and build up from there.

If you test the search here https://serpapi.com/ you have a JSON output to the right, does this contains everything you need? If so then you can get this with a fairly easy script. But as this is a business question it looks like something for this site.
