Web Scraper

Fetch web page content and convert to clean markdown format.

Usage

Run the fetch script to get web content:

python3 scripts/fetch_url.py <url> [options]

Options

• --timeout <seconds>: Request timeout (default: 30)
• --max-length <chars>: Maximum output length (default: 100000)
• --raw: Output raw HTML instead of markdown

Examples

Fetch single URL:

python3 scripts/fetch_url.py "https://example.com/article"

Fetch with custom timeout:

python3 scripts/fetch_url.py "https://example.com/article" --timeout 60

Fetch multiple URLs in parallel:

for url in "https://url1.com" "https://url2.com"; do
  python3 scripts/fetch_url.py "$url" &
done
wait

Workflow

1. Single URL : Run fetch_url.py with the URL
2. Multiple URLs : Run multiple fetch commands in parallel using background processes
3. Handle errors : If a URL fails, check:
   • Network connectivity
   • URL validity
   • Website may block automated requests (try different User-Agent or use browser automation)

Output Format

The script converts HTML to clean markdown:

• Headings → #, ##, ###, etc.
• Lists → - for unordered, 1. for ordered
• Bold/Italic → **bold**, *italic*
• Code blocks preserved
• Navigation, footer, and ads removed

Troubleshooting

403 Forbidden : Website blocks automated requests. Consider:

• Some sites require JavaScript rendering (not supported by this script)
• Try accessing from a different network

Timeout errors : Increase timeout with --timeout 60

Empty content : Website may require JavaScript to render content
