Name: shpider Version: 0.0.7 Synopsis: Web automation library in Haskell. Description: Shpider is a web automation library for Haskell. It allows you to quickly write crawlers, and for simple cases ( like following links ) even without reading the page source. . It has useful features such as turning relative links from a page into absolute links, options to authorize transactions only on a given domain, and the option to only download html documents. . It also provides a nice syntax for filling out forms. . An example: . > runShpider $ do > download "http://apage.com" > theForm : _ <- getFormsByAction "http://anotherpage.com" > sendForm $ fillOutForm theForm $ pairs $ do > "occupation" =: "unemployed Haskell programmer" > "location" =: "mother's house" . Shpider contains a patched version of the curl package ( the original package's garbage-collection caused non-deterministic behaviour ). The curl licence is therefore distributed with this package.
