Using Puppeteer to interact with dropdowns and filters ensures I capture all menu items, even those hidden behind dynamic elements.
-
To handle anti-scraping measures, I rotate proxies and add delays between requests. This reduces the likelihood of my scraper being flagged or blocked.
-
For dynamic updates, I use modular code that isolates the scraping logic for each section of the menu. This makes it easy to update when the platform changes its layout.
-
Using network traffic inspection, I rely on APIs whenever possible. It’s more reliable and avoids the need to constantly adapt to layout changes.
-
For large-scale projects, I use multithreading to download multiple images simultaneously. This speeds up the process significantly compared to sequential downloads.
-
I use rotating proxies and headers to mimic human behavior. This helps avoid detection when scraping multiple movie details across a site.
-
For inconsistent metadata, I write conditional logic in my scraper to handle different cases. For example, I check for multiple possible class names or fallback values if the author name is missing.
-
I use WebSocket libraries like websocket-client in Python to directly connect to live data streams. This avoids the need for repeated page refreshes.
-
When dealing with large datasets, I use pagination to systematically scrape all pages. This ensures no listings are missed, even if they’re spread across multiple pages.
