Web crawler that can interpret JavaScript [closed]

by

Ruby’s Capybara is an integration test library, but it can also be used to write stand-alone web-crawlers. Given that it uses backends like Selenium or headless WebKit, it interprets javascript out-of-the-box:

require 'capybara/dsl'
require 'capybara-webkit'

include Capybara::DSL
Capybara.current_driver = :webkit
Capybara.app_host = "http://www.google.com"
page.visit("https://stackoverflow.com/")
puts(page.html)
