vyos-1x VS Scrapy

https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/pull/1718 suggests the syntax needed for use in vyos -- by using the command line help, you might get the specific syntax

NGFW is not a priority for the project, still, we spend a lot of effort on the firewall About T970, it was merged about half a year ago https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/pull/1633 Requires testing

It seems to me the correct place to read the definitions would be by cloning https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x and run `make interface_definitions` and look in `build/interface-definitions`. Is this correct or is it just an intermediate step and it would be better to look in `template-cfg` after running the make command?

I actually looked into this. PR #789 "upnpd: T3420: Support UPNP protocol", which is based on Phabricator T3420 was merged less than a month before my build. This feature is not yet documented, but I did implement it to no avail.

I can download 1.3 with my subscription without problems. Just want to test with one of the new 1.4 features in something a bit more stable than nightly.

Not possible as far as I know. You can see it is hard coded in the template file here: https://github.com/vyos/vyos-1x/blob/current/data/templates/vyos-hostsd/hosts.tmpl

BeautifulSoup4 Scrapy

While there is no specific library for SERP, there are some web scraping libraries that can do the Google Search Page Ranking. One of them which is quite famous is Scrapy - It is a fast high-level web crawling and web scraping framework, used to crawl websites and extract structured data from their pages. It offers rich developer community support and has been used by more than 50+ projects.

If you're looking for a turn-key solution, I'd have to dig a little. I generally write a scraper in python that dumps into a database or flat file (depending on number of records I'm hunting).

Scraping is a separate subject, but once you write one you can generally reuse relevant portions for many others. If you can get adept at a scraping framework like Scrapy you can do it fairly quickly, but there aren't many tools that work out of the box for every site you'll encounter.

Once you've written the spider, it's generally able to be rerun for updates unless the site code is dramatically altered. It really comes down to how brittle the spider is coded (i.e. hunting for specific heading sizes or fonts or something) instead of grabbing the underlying JSON/XHR that doesn't usually change frequently.

Scrapy capitalizes headers for request

Scrapy is a web scraping toolkit

I know this might not be a good answer, as it's not .NET, but we use https://scrapy.org/ (Python).
