Chromium / Puppeteer site crawler

styled with prettier

This crawler does a BFS starting from a given site entry point. It will not leave the entry point domain and it will not crawl a page more than once. Given a shared redis host/cluster this crawler can be distributed across multiple machines or processes. Discovered pages will be stored in mongo collection, each with a url, outbound urls, and a radius from the origin.
