gocrawl is a polite, slim and concurrent web crawler library written in Go. It respects robots.txt rules, applies per-host crawl delays, and offers customizable hooks into the crawling logic via an Extender interface.
Use cases
- crawl a website politely respecting robots.txt
- scrape pages from multiple hosts concurrently
- build a site indexer in Go
- extract data from web pages with per-host crawl delays
- harvest links from a domain with configurable user agent
When to choose
- you need a Go crawler that obeys robots.txt and rate-limits per host
- you want fine-grained control over which URLs are visited via hooks
- you need concurrent crawling with goroutines
When to avoid
- you want a simpler, more idiomatic modern Go crawler (consider fetchbot)
- you need a full-featured scraping framework with JavaScript rendering
- you need a actively developed project with recent releases
