Scraperjs is a Node.js web scraping library offering two scrapers: a lightweight StaticScraper using cheerio for static HTML, and a DynamicScraper using PhantomJS for JavaScript-rendered content. Both expose a similar promise-based API for extracting data from web pages.
Use cases
- scrape titles and links from a static web page
- extract data from pages that render content with JavaScript
- build a simple web crawler in Node.js
- parse HTML with jQuery-like selectors
- collect data from websites into JSON
When to choose
- you need a simple promise-based scraper for static pages
- you want to scrape JavaScript-rendered content via PhantomJS
- you prefer jQuery-style selectors (cheerio) for extraction
When to avoid
- you need a maintained, actively updated library (last release 2020)
- you want headless Chrome/Playwright-based scraping instead of PhantomJS
- you need large-scale distributed crawling
