Osmosis is an HTML/XML parser and web scraper library for Node.js built on native libxml C bindings. It offers a chainable, promise-like interface for crawling pages, following links, paginating, and extracting structured data with CSS and XPath selectors.
Use cases
- scrape product listings from e-commerce sites
- extract structured data from html pages
- crawl paginated search results
- parse html with css and xpath selectors
- submit login forms and scrape behind auth
- scrape through rotating proxies with retries
When to choose
- you need fast, low-memory scraping in Node.js without jsdom or jQuery
- you want a fluent chainable API for follow/paginate/set extraction flows
- you need proxy rotation, cookies, and form login built into the scraper
When to avoid
- you need a modern, actively maintained scraper with current ecosystem support
- you are scraping JavaScript-heavy SPAs that require a headless browser
- you need TypeScript types or a promise/async-await native API
