Hi all :) It's a been a while and I've been super busy, but here's another super nice release (thanks for the feedback!), support for xPath2.0/3.0 means you can use logic in your selectors (for example, give the count of the number of divs that contain certain text, and much more). UI improvements, Selectable browser (plug it into Bright Data's scraping browser!) and more, check it out! Much ❤ from the changedetection team. https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io / changedetection.io
This looks amazing! What's everyone using it for? I want ideas, haha. The only thing I can think of is notifying when my small subreddits post something, since they killed rif.
Couldn't agree more with you. This is one of THE MOST important software to selfhost. Use it daily and would be impossible to keep track without it. It's just so well done without anything to "complain" about. All important features are there and it just works. :)
Wow, such a nice tool. Wonder if it could be used for detecting software releases (such as new versions of container images, opensource projects, etc) or if there's any other dedicated software for this task.
I just find new great software to tinker with every day on this sub. Luckliy I am on sickleave and have plenty of time. Othervise this sub is anxeity inducing 🤓
It's pretty awesome software. The main use case for me is tracking my home equity from different sites and also checking the status of my qBittorent. I have it integrated with Apprise and Gotify, which then sends alerts to my phone. 10/10 would recommend.
the 'export data' part is simple but works great, i'm doing something similar for graphing the number of houses that appear for sale in my area over time (some super interesting stuff over the last year!)
One thing I’d love to see is the ability to download a pdf and send that as the change. More options past that like reading the pdf would be nice but not necessary.
I tried to use playwright to do it, but most of the sites I want to do it with open the pdf in a new tab and right now the playwright instructions can’t handle that.
Is it possible to pull & compare the whole webpage source? Since I've found some websites has hidden changes that aren't made visible, both the basic and playwright fetcher won't check the underground changes. u/dgtlmoon123
