Installation

Basic Installation

pip install serp-scraper

From Source

git clone https://github.com/neuronaline/serp-scraper.git
cd serp-scraper
pip install -e .

With Dependencies

pip install serp-scraper[dev]  # With dev tools
pip install serp-scraper[test] # With test dependencies
pip install serp-scraper[api]  # With REST API (FastAPI)

Requirements

• Python 3.10 or higher
• Google Chrome browser installed
• Virtual display (for non-headless mode, the default):
  • Linux/headless servers: Install Xvfb (sudo apt install xvfb) and use DISPLAY=:99 or run with xvfb-run
  • macOS: No additional setup needed (has built-in display)
  • Windows: No additional setup needed (has built-in display)

Quick Start

Recommended: Using SerpClient

import asyncio
from serp import SerpClient

async def main():
    async with SerpClient() as client:
        results = await client.search("python programming")

        for r in results:
            print(f"{r.rank}. {r.title}")
            print(f"   {r.url}")
            print(f"   {r.description[:100]}...")

asyncio.run(main())

Running on Headless Servers

By default, the browser runs in non-headless mode (visible window) which requires a display. For headless servers or CI/CD environments, use one of these approaches:

Option 1: Use xvfb-run (recommended for Linux):

xvfb-run -a python your_script.py

Option 2: Set DISPLAY environment variable:

DISPLAY=:99 python your_script.py

Option 3: Run in headless mode:

async with SerpClient(headless=True) as client:
    results = await client.search("python programming")

Or via environment variable:

SERP_HEADLESS=true python your_script.py

Note: The VirtualScreenRequiredError exception is raised when running non-headless without a display.

Google News RSS

Scrape news articles using Google News RSS feeds:

import asyncio
from serp import GoogleNewsClient

async def main():
    async with GoogleNewsClient(language="en", country="US") as client:
        news = await client.get_news("Tesla", max_results=20)

        for r in news:
            print(f"{r.title}")
            print(f"  Source: {r.source}")
            print(f"  URL: {r.url}")
            print(f"  Date: {r.published}")

asyncio.run(main())

Or use the quick function:

import asyncio
from serp import quick_news

async def main():
    news = await quick_news("Tesla", language="en", country="US", max_results=20)
    print(f"Found {len(news)} news articles")

asyncio.run(main())

URL Fetching

import asyncio
from serp import SerpClient

async def main():
    async with SerpClient() as client:
        # Fetch page content as Markdown
        content = await client.fetch("https://example.com")
        print(content)

asyncio.run(main())

Content Compression

Compress long content into head, middle, and tail portions — useful for LLM contexts where you want to retain key information while reducing token count:

from serp import compress_content, CompressionMeta

long_text = "..."  # e.g. 20,000+ characters
compressed, meta = compress_content(long_text)

if meta.was_truncated:
    print(f"Reduced from {meta.original_length:,} to {meta.compressed_length:,} chars")
    print(f"Truncated {meta.truncated_chars:,} characters")

Compression can also be enabled directly during fetch:

content = await client.fetch("https://example.com", compress=True)

The standalone compress_content() function gives you full control over thresholds and metadata, while the compress=True parameter on fetch() is a convenience shortcut.

Quick Functions

For simple use cases without creating a client:

import asyncio
from serp import quick_search, quick_fetch

async def main():
    # Search
    results = await quick_search("web scraping")
    print(f"Found {len(results)} results")

    # Fetch URL (with optional compression)
    content = await quick_fetch("https://example.com", compress=True)
    print(content[:500])

asyncio.run(main())

Using with Configuration

import asyncio
from serp import SerpClient, SerpConfig

# Create configured client
config = SerpConfig(
    log_level="DEBUG",
    max_retries=5,
    cache_ttl=3600,  # 1 hour
    cache_enabled=True,
)

async with SerpClient(config) as client:
    results = await client.search("python tutorial")

API Reference

SerpClient

The recommended high-level interface for using the library.

from serp import SerpClient

client = SerpClient(
    headless=False,              # Optional
    use_cache=True,             # Optional
    cache_ttl=86400,            # Optional
    source=None,                # Optional: "google", "bing", or None (auto)
    max_retries=3,              # Optional
    timeout=30,                 # Optional
    log_level="WARNING",        # Optional
)

Methods

client.search(query, page_num=1, source=None, use_cache=None)

Search for a query and return results.

Note: Google and Bing SERP searches always use browser (nodriver) because these search engines require JavaScript to render results. The method parameter is deprecated and ignored.

Parameters:

• query (str): Search query string
• page_num (int): Page number (1-based), defaults to 1
• source (str): Search engine - "google", "bing", or None (auto: google first, bing fallback)
• use_cache (bool): Whether to use cache. None uses client default.

Returns:

• list[SearchResult]: List of SearchResult objects

Raises:

• ProxyError: All proxies failed
• CaptchaError: CAPTCHA detected after all retries
• PageTimeoutError: Page load timeout
• ParseError: Failed to parse results

---

client.fetch(url, use_cache=None, prefer_browser=False, compress=False)

Fetch a URL and return content as Markdown.

Fetch Strategy (per docs/Scraper Strategy.md):

• Primary method: BS4 (BeautifulSoup4) + HTTP - fast, lightweight
• Fallback: Browser (nodriver) - triggered on BS4 failure (empty content, CAPTCHA, parse errors, timeouts)
• Default behavior: BS4-first, browser fallback (prefer_browser=False)
• Forced browser: Set prefer_browser=True to skip BS4 and use browser directly

Parameters:

• url (str): Target URL
• use_cache (bool): Whether to use cache. None uses client default.
• prefer_browser (bool): If True, use browser directly (legacy mode). If False (default), try BS4 first then fallback to browser.
• compress (bool): If True and content exceeds ~10K chars, compress by taking head, middle, and tail portions. (Default: False)

Returns:

• str: Page content converted to Markdown (optionally compressed)

Note: When you need metadata about the truncation (original length, etc.), use the standalone compress_content() function from the serp package instead of the compress parameter on fetch().

---

Architecture

Search Flow

1. Check cache for existing results (if use_cache=True)
2. Load proxy configuration from file or environment
3. Select random proxy (or DataImpulse if configured)
4. Create browser with stealth settings
5. Navigate to search URL
6. Wait for results to load
7. Check for CAPTCHA
8. Parse organic results
9. Cache results before returning

Fetch Strategy (per docs/Scraper Strategy.md)

For Google Scholar, Google News, and URL Fetch:

1. Primary: BS4 (BeautifulSoup4) + HTTP - fast, lightweight
2. Fallback: Browser (nodriver) - triggered on BS4 failure

For Google and Bing SERP:

• Always uses browser (nodriver) because JavaScript is required to render results

Search Methods

SERP Search (Google/Bing):

• Always uses nodriver for stealth Chrome automation
• More reliable, harder to detect
• Slower due to browser overhead

URL Fetch / Google News / Google Scholar:

• Default: BS4-first, browser fallback on failure
• BS4 method: Uses httpx for direct HTTP requests with BeautifulSoup4 parsing
• Browser fallback: Uses nodriver when BS4 fails (empty content, CAPTCHA, parse errors, timeouts)

Caching

The caching system uses a disk-based approach:

• Cache entries stored as JSON files in .cache/serp/
• Keys are SHA256 hashes of query parameters
• Automatic expiration based on TTL
• Can be disabled via cache_enabled=False or SERP_CACHE_ENABLED=false

Content Compression

The library includes a built-in content compression utility for truncating long content while preserving key information:

Algorithm:

1. If content length ≤ threshold (default: 10,000 chars), return unchanged
2. Target compressed length = 45% of threshold (~4,500 chars)
3. Extract three portions: head (35%), middle (15%), tail (50%)
4. Join with a truncation marker: \n\n-- X,XXX chars truncated --\n\n

Usage scenarios:

• LLM context optimization: Reduce token count while preserving document structure
• API responses: The REST API /fetch endpoint supports "compress": true
• Direct library use: from serp import compress_content or client.fetch(url, compress=True)

Error Handling

The library provides specific exceptions for different failure modes:

• ProxyError: All configured proxies failed or returned errors
• CaptchaError: Search engine detected automation and presented CAPTCHA
• PageTimeoutError: Page did not load within the timeout period
• ParseError: Page loaded but results could not be parsed
• VirtualScreenRequiredError: Non-headless mode selected but no virtual display available (use xvfb-run, set DISPLAY, or use headless=True)
