This project aims to gather headlines from main newspapers webpages from Perú using git actions.

You can setup your own headline scrapper by modifying settings.json

{
  "out_path": "data",
  "sources": [
    {
      "name": "some_name",
      "url": "https://some_url",
      "selector": "css selector here"
    }
  ]
}

• out_path: this will be the path where the data is stored.
• source.name: for each source, this will become the name of the file (eg: some_name.json).
• source.selector: the css selector to get the headlines (SelectorGadget extension in chrome is a nice tool for this).

The scrapper is very simple, for each element the selector obtains, it will try to get the href and text values to store it in a json file.

The output data will have the format: {out_path}/YYYYMMDD/{source.name}.json
