Installation

composer require juyal-ahmed/web-scraper

Getting a full webpage content:

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Create a Scraper instance with only the URL specified
$scraper = new \PhpFarmer\WebScraper\Scraper('https://example.com');
$pageHtmlContent = $scraper->getPageContent('https://example.com/page.html');
?>

Getting a full webpage content:

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Create a Scraper instance with custom cache settings
$scraperWithCache = new Scraper('https://example.com', true, './custom_cache/', 600);
$pageHtmlContent = $scraper->getPageContent('https://example.com/page.html');
?>

Getting a full webpage content with Using Proxy IP:

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Create a Scraper instance with only the URL specified
$scraper = new \PhpFarmer\WebScraper\Scraper('https://example.com');
$pageHtmlContent = $scraper->curl('https://example.com/page.html', "93.118.xx.141:8800", "6USERR:8PASS1");
?>

Parsing a page html content:

<?php
$subHtmlContent =  $scraper->getHtmlContentBetweenTags($pageHtmlContent, '
', '
');
?>

How It Works:

1. Include The Class scraper.php in your Working page header.
2. Set some default settings.
3. Get the page content by its existing methods.
4. Split your content by getHtmlContentBetweenTags methods if single content you are searching for.
5. If grid data needed, split the content with a needle Ex: explode()
6. Then loop it whole and get the content by getHtmlContentBetweenTags again to make the final array of grid data.
7. That's' all
