design of ants-go

ants

I wrote a crawler engine named ants in python base on scrapy. But sometimes, dynamic language is chaos. So I start to write it in a compile language.

scrapy

I design the crawler framework by imitating scrapy. such as downloader,scraper,and the way user write customize spider, but in a compile way

elasticsearch

I design my distributed architecture by imitating elasticsearch. it spire me to do a engine for distributed crawler
