HTML scraping script that gets some online web comics and displays them on a single page, because i am lazy.

  • Copy web/ files to your webserver folder.
  • edit config.py and set the correct webserver folder.
  • pip install -r requirements.txt
  • python main.py

Todo

Donezell Washington

  • Make all current comics as plugins in the comics/ directory
  • Actually output HTML (currently it just prints the scraped html)
  • Discard old.py
  • Config parser so that OUTPUT_FILE and OUTPUT_DIR are not defined in 2 files.
  • Do not stop when one comic fails to scrape, just ignore that comic.
  • Make instagram scraper for instagram comics

To be done

  • Make it possible to scrape 1 comic for testing purposes
  • Add index generator
  • Check when a comic has been updated and display that (or put it on the top of the page, so you dont have to scroll so much)

General life todo

  • Drink beer
  • Raise hell
  • Pet dogs
