Monitor Web page changes with Specto

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 16:00:00 GMT
There's no dearth of Web feed readers for Linux that allow you to keep tabs on new postings on a Web site. But what if the Web site or page you're interested in doesn't provide a feed? Specto is a nifty little Python application that lets you monitor changes to static or dynamic pages. You can configure Specto to monitor changes to wiki pages, blog posts, forum threads, your email inbox, and even files and folders on your own system. An unobtrusive pop-up from its system tray icon informs you of all changes, so you don't have to hop around looking for updates.

Web::Scraper::Filter(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation				 Web::Scraper::Filter(3pm)

NAME
Web::Scraper::Filter - Base class for Web::Scraper filters SYNOPSIS
package Web::Scraper::Filter::YAML; use base qw( Web::Scraper::Filter ); use YAML (); sub filter { my($self, $value) = @_; YAML::Load($value); } 1; use Web::Scraper; my $scraper = scraper { process ".yaml-code", data => [ 'TEXT', 'YAML' ]; }; DESCRIPTION
Web::Scraper::Filter is a base class for text filters in Web::Scraper. You can create your own text filter by subclassing this module. There are two ways to create and use your custom filter. If you name your filter Web::Scraper::Filter::Something, you just call: process $exp, $key => [ 'TEXT', 'Something' ]; If you declare your filter under your own namespace, like 'MyApp::Filter::Foo', process $exp, $key => [ 'TEXT', '+MyApp::Filter::Foo' ]; You can also inline your filter function without creating a filter class: process $exp, $key => [ 'TEXT', sub { s/foo/bar/ } ]; Note that this function munges $_ and returns the count of replacement. Filter code special cases if the return value of the callback is number and $_ value is updated. You can, of course, stack filters like: process $exp, $key => [ '@href', 'Foo', '+MyApp::Filter::Bar', &baz ]; AUTHOR
