watchdogs

Keep an eye on the world's change.

Such as steam price fluctuation / new post articles / news on the web portal / server api health / binge-watching, and so on...

Intro

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