Web Miner

Overview

Web Miner is a Chrome Extension currently under active development, designed to simplify the creation of automated web interaction scripts. Leveraging a library of basic commands, users can easily craft scripts for a wide range of purposes—from scraping web page data to automating repetitive tasks such as form submissions. Our vision extends to enabling script creation and visualization through the extension, with capabilities to save and execute scripts offline.

Development Setup

1. Install Dependencies: Execute npm install to download and install the necessary dependencies.
2. Production Build: Run npm run build to compile all essential files into the dist/ directory, ready for deployment in production environments.
3. Watch Mode: Activate watch mode with npm run watch to automatically recompile files in src/ upon any changes, facilitating rapid development iterations.
4. Content Script Development: For focused development on the content script, utilize npm run watch:content to exclusively recompile changes within the src/content/ directory, ideal for modifications within the modal.
5. Extension Loading: To load the extension, navigate to Chrome Extensions and select the dist/ folder as an unpacked extension. For detailed instructions, refer to the Chrome Extension Getting Started Tutorial.
