24 alternatives to Pipet – CLI tool for scraping and extracting data online, with pipes
I often find myself in situations where I need to extract some data from a website, either as one time thing or periodically (and then watch for changes). Maybe I'm tracking stocks, or a delivery, or I want to know when tickets become available to the local sauna; maybe a friend called and asked "can you get me all data from that website into a spreadsheet?" (this happens surprisingly often) I used to write one-off scripts for that, often with Python or JavaScript, but I noticed I spend about one minute getting the right CSS selectors, and then another 10 minutes setting the rest of the…

Hi HN! This is CL and we’re building PipeRider[0]. PipeRider is an open source data impact analysis tool, specifically during pull requests for dbt. Why? In a previous life I worked on distributed version control systems[1] prior to git, weird data systems like in-postgres REST server with plv8, and building civic tech communities with open data. It always startled me when some new characteristics of data were uncovered, and we had to change some data schema & modeling and then recheck all downstream uses of the data (if we even could). Fast forward to the modern era of data systems, the…

How I use it myself: - Quickly generate a README.md boilerplate for a project - Ask LLMs questions about an undocumented codebase It is still very much work in progress and I plan to add many more options (file size limits, exclude patterns..) and a public API I hope this tool can help you Your feedback is very valuable to help me prioritize And…

Hi HN! Ah yes, another web scraper. There are so many out there, so why make another one? Because I wanted one that's stupid simple and stupid fast. Unlike most web scrapers, Easy Scraper doesn’t make you build a new scraper for each site or individually select fields. You just open it and bam, your data's ready to go. My favorite use case for instantly extracting data anywhere is being able to easily talk to ChatGPT about custom datasets. For example, here's a 1-minute demo of me scraping my Twitter followers to find the ones that live in San Francisco:…
