scrape-smith 0.1.0

Small scraping utilities for CLI and Python workflows.

scrape-smith

No-dependency Python utilities for scraping workflows.

The package exposes one main CLI command, scrape, with subcommands for each tool.

scrape tables <html-file-or-url>

The table tool extracts tables from a local HTML file or HTTP(S) URL and writes the result to a file. CSV is the default output format, and successful commands do not print table data to the screen.

scrape tables page.html
scrape tables https://example.com/page.html -o result.csv
scrape tables page.html --format json -o tables.json

Without -o, output is written to a safe source-based filename:

page.html -> page-tables.csv
https://yeiichi.github.io/claim-class-model -> claim-class-model-tables.csv

If the default filename already exists, scrape avoids overwriting it by adding a numeric suffix, such as page-tables-2.csv.

Python APIs live under scrape_smith.tools.

from scrape_smith.tools.tables import extract_tables

tables = extract_tables("page.html")
