Ask HN: Tools to make an API from *any* website?

3 pointsby Trindazabout 13 years ago
I'm searching for tools that let you automate the extraction of data from <i>any</i> website, which might mean making an API or RSS Feed out of <i>any</i> website. I'm thinking something similar to the old Dapper[1] or Mozenda[2]. Also, what I'm not searching for are scraping libraries and frameworks to use in an application that I would have to develop myself.<p>What are the tools available?<p>[1] http://www.crunchbase.com/company/dapper [2] http://www.mozenda.com/

Perhaps <a href="http://www.scraperwiki.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.scraperwiki.com</a> unless you need it to be real time. Scraping: yes, develop or yourself: no.
