LionScraper - Web Data Scraper

About

LionSpider – Lightweight Web Data Scraper, a visual web crawler browser extension.  
No coding is required: with point‑and‑click configuration you can perform web scraping and web data collection directly in the browser.  
If a page is accessible in the browser, LionSpider can capture its data, while naturally inheriting the browser’s behavior and anti‑bot characteristics.

In today’s era of information explosion, the ability to acquire and process data has become a core competitiveness for both individuals and organizations.

Features:

1. Visual no‑code scraper  
   LionSpider is a web scraper designed specifically for web data collection. It provides a visual, no‑code experience: configure once and start scraping with simple clicks.  
   It supports two modes – Quick Scrape (template‑free, intelligently detecting data groups) and Smart Scrape (template‑based, configurable fields and child pages) – with real‑time testing and instant effect.

2. Powerful web scraper  
   Supports list pagination as well as multi‑level recursive scraping on child pages.  
   Offers both Tab scraping (with JavaScript rendering) and Ajax scraping (fast for static pages).  
   Supports real‑time URL input and bulk URL import from files.  
   Provides three field selection modes – single field, list field, and combined field – with intelligent recognition of page structure.

3. Efficient web crawler  
   Supports multiple tasks running sequentially.  
   Supports multi‑process scraping.  
   Can run task B during the idle interval of task A.  
   Uses an intelligent queue scheduler with configurable concurrency from 1 to 20 and task prioritization.

4. Fully automated one‑click scraping  
   After configuring scraping rules, a single click starts the task and LionSpider will automatically run until all jobs are finished.  
   When combined with APIs to fetch URLs and publish content, it can run fully automated web scraping 24/7, 365 days a year.

5. Strong anti‑bot capabilities (use only within legal and compliant boundaries)  
   Supports simulating user page scrolling.  
   Supports simulating random clicks on the page.  
   Supports login‑status detection.

6. Powerful data processing  
   Supports intelligent extraction of mobile phone numbers, email addresses, landline numbers, and images.  
   Supports 7 standard field types: text, link, image, date, number, email, and phone.  
   Supports duplicate‑detection, loop matching, and length validation on collected data.  
   Supports exporting to TXT, JSON, Excel, CSV, and Markdown formats.

7. Highly customizable scraper  
   Supports fully customizable field configurations.  
   Can collect from page source, extract from URLs, or generate common derived values, with flexible combinations of data sources.  
   Supports configurable page scrolling behavior and speed.  
   Supports custom delay before scraping and configurable scrape intervals; different URL types can use different intervals.  
   Supports enforcing “login required” before scraping.
