scrape-it is a Node.js web scraping library with a simple, declarative API for extracting data from HTML pages, built on top of tinyreq and cheerio. It also ships a companion CLI (scrape-it-cli) for scraping from the command line.
Use cases
- scrape data from a website in node.js
- extract structured data from html pages
- parse product prices from a web page
- collect information from sites without an api
- scrape a webpage from the command line
- extract article titles and links from a blog
When to choose
- you want a minimal, human-friendly scraping API in Node.js for static HTML pages
- you need quick declarative extraction of fields from server-rendered pages
- you prefer a small library over heavyweight headless-browser scraping frameworks
When to avoid
- you need to scrape JavaScript-rendered or ajax-heavy pages (use Puppeteer or Playwright instead)
- you need built-in request queuing, proxies, or anti-bot handling
- you are not working in the Node.js ecosystem
