morphscrapper 0.1.2

A multi-modal web scraping package for extracting text, images, audio, and video.

🔮 morphscrapper

A sophisticated, multi-modal web scraping and media conversion suite for Python.

---

📖 Overview

morphscrapper is a modular Python package designed to extract and convert diverse content types from the web. It bridges the gap between raw web scraping and advanced media processing, allowing developers to extract text, images, audio, and video resources, and immediately perform operations like OCR (Optical Character Recognition), speech recognition, and video manipulation.

It features a robust Python API, a full-featured Command-Line Interface (CLI), and a modern, light-themed Neo-Brutalism web dashboard for interactive scraping and conversion.

💻 Usage & Quick Start

1. Python API

from morphscrapper import scrape_text, scrape_images, image_to_text

# Scrape document content from a website
result = scrape_text("https://example.com")
if result["success"]:
    print(f"Page Title: {result['title']}")
    print(result["text"])

# Scrape images
img_result = scrape_images("https://example.com")
print(f"Found {img_result['count']} images.")

# Perform local OCR (requires Tesseract)
ocr_text = image_to_text("receipt.png")
if ocr_text["success"]:
    print(ocr_text["text"])

2. Command-Line Interface (CLI)

# Scrape text from a URL and export as CSV
morph scrape text https://example.com --output csv

# Scrape and download images
morph scrape images https://example.com --download

# Extract audio track from an MP4 file
morph convert video-to-audio movie.mp4 --save-as audio.wav

# Start the Web GUI
morph web
