watchdogs

Keep an eye on the change of web world.

Such as post articles / news on the web portal / server api health / binge-watching / steam price fluctuation / github events / updates of comic and novel, and so on...

Intro

中文文档

This is a web app based on fastapi, databases, uniparser, torequests.
Smoothly deploy it by pip: pip install -U watchdogs;python3 -m watchdogs
Simple to create a new crawler with the Web UI, not like old ways to write duplicate code.
All the crawlers keep runing in the async environment.
Almost all the elements have a title attribute to describe the features in the Web UI, which means docs lay on the UI.
Release your hands from repetitive refreshing pages on the browser.
1. Subscribe the change events with RSS reminder extensions, such as Feedbro or RSS Feed Reader.
2. Implement a class which inherits from watchdogs.callbacks.Callback.
