Spidy is a tool that crawl web pages from a given list of websites, it match all domains on each page and find expired domains among them.

compile the package go build . then run ./Spidy -config /path/to/setting.yaml

results will be saved in ./log folder:

errors.txt: errors while scraping will be stored here. helpful for debugging.

domains.txt: list of all unique domain checked.

found.txt: list of the available domains found.

visited.txt: list of all unique visited URLs.

main app setting:

- worker :number of threads

example: worker:10 => scrap 10 urls at once.

- depth: page scraping depth

if no proxy is added. proxy scraping will be disabled. if one proxy is added. all scraping will be through one proxy. if more then two proxies added. scraping will be rotated. example:

proxies: ["http://username:[email protected]:2345","http://username:password1.1.1.1:2345","http://username:password1.1.1.1:2345"]

to disable able proxy, use empty array, like: proxies: []
