Webscraping with Julia?

julia, web-scraping

Solution

Something like that probably doesn't exist yet. Julia is young that way. Either write you own, based on other packages like Requests.jl, or bind to the Pthyon stuff you mention with PyCall.jl

Problem

We are having a difficult time to find a good (actually, any) web scraping library or modules for the Julia language. What we need is to have some kind of facility to make it easier to parse or find html elements and strings. Maybe even some kind of crawling on demand. Update: I'm looking for something like BeautifulSoup or pyquery (both are for Python).
