Is this project dead? #65

Closed sunshineo closed 9 years ago

Sorry to be so straight, but the last update is a year ago and here we have a lot of issues coming in. Has the author gave up on this project? Is there any alternative you recommend?

I found https://www.npmjs.com/package/jedi-crawler https://www.npmjs.com/package/console-crawler https://www.npmjs.com/package/spa-crawler But they also have not been updated for a while. (BTW, can this be put on NPM?)

There are a lot of stuff at https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=crawler&page=2 but I feel I should pick something built on top of phantomjs or another headless browser to not limit myself. What do you think? Thank you very much!

It's not dead, it's sleeping. It's pining for the fjords :).

In all seriousness, I've let the project lapse for a while, and don't intend to add major features, but I am intending to package it for npm and tidy up a few issues.
