Scrap websites with nodejs!
I really wanted to experiment a little bit with nodejs. So some days ago a friend of mine told me that he used a cool python library in order to scrap from a site the information he wanted to! So that sounded to me like a very good exercise!
The idea is to use jQuery powerful selectors to extract whatever I wanted to from an html page. If I can do that, I can also extract the url of the next page and the put the mechanism to work again for the that page! The code I finally had to write was about 50 lines!
