ibis VS changedetection.io

I really don't understand the appeal of dbt vs a proper programming language. The templating approach leads to massive spaghetti. I look forward to trying out something like Ibis [0]

ibis – portable Python dataframe library

The main benefit is that you get a Python (or R, Julia or Rust) interpreter. So you can evaluate code. A good example of the value of this is the Ibis docs which use Quarto: https://ibis-project.org/

Ive found polars quite intuitive, though for python, I lean more towards [ibis](https://ibis-project.org/). The interface is nearly identical, but ibis has the benefit if building sql queries before pulling any actual data (like dbplyr) — whereas polars requires the data to be in-memory (at least for rdb’s, though correct me if Im wrong)

this to me seems like a good argument for only using ibis, but Im happy to be convinced otherwise

Please add Ibis Birdbrain https://ibis-project.github.io/ibis-birdbrain/ to the list. Birdbrain is an AI-powered data bot, built on Ibis and Marvin, supporting more than 18 database backends.

See https://github.com/ibis-project/ibis and https://ibis-project.org for more details.

changedetection.io just donated to the awesome crew over at ntfy.sh

I used a business to business website that lists every single company in this industry by location and has a link for each to generate a list of companys and URLS. I monitor this for changes with changedetection.io

0.45.8 is out! Support for xPath2.0/3.0 means you can use logic in your selectors (for example, give the count of the number of divs that contain certain text, and much more). UI improvements, Selectable browser (plug it into Bright Data's scraping browser!) and more, check it out! Much ❤ from the changedetection team. https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io / changedetection.io

The wiki is pretty easy to follow. The instructions here are the ones I followed. Simply uncommented the lines mentioned.

Hello, Is there a free alternative to this website changedetection.io ?

hey all - I noticed after showing our homepage ( changedetection.io ) to a lot of friends at the bar, they all click on the picture/screenshot at the top expecting a short video, but theres nothing there :) I remember there was some service that can build one for you? Or is it better to make it your self.. ? if so.. which tech do you use? (linux here)

Love from the changedetection.io crew ❤❤❤

You can use an open-source tool like this one: https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io
