Basic Scraper Commands

The scrapers are used to detect and notify you of new items that are added to websites. All available commands can be viewed using: !m help scraper

Adding search terms to a scraper

The majority of scrapers require you to provide some search terms to be used when looking for new items. For example you may be interested in the latest Funko's being added to the Target website; to add search terms to a scraper you need to use the scraper add command. This command requires the name of the store and the search terms you would like to add. Example:

!m scraper add target "funko"

Now any new items which are added to the Target website and contain the word "funko" in the title, will be detected and notified. The scraper is not case sensitive so you can add all of your search terms in lowercase.

Some scrapers will automatically detect all new items added to the website and do not require any search terms to be provided; you will know which scrapers have this capability as your bot will tell you and not allow you to add any search terms of your own.

To add a Shopify website to the Shopify scraper, simply add the base URL to the scraper and all new items will be detected. Example:

!m scraper add shopify "https://ufcstore.com/"

If you are interest in being notified of new items from a specific collection only then simply add the collection to the Shopify scraper. Example: !m scraper add shopify "https://ufcstore.com/collections/ufc-apparel-mens-t-shirts"

Removing search terms from a scraper

Use this command to remove search terms from the scraper. To remove search terms you need to use the scraper remove command. This command requires the name of the store and the search terms you would like to remove. Example:

!m scraper remove target "funko"

View added search terms

You can view a list of all the search terms you have added for each store using the scraper running command. This command only requires the name of the store. Example:

!m scraper running target

View a list of all available scrapers

The scrapers command will display all of the currently available scrapers and if you have access to them or not. Example:

!m scrapers

If you have a scraper that you would like to see added then simply open a ticket in the Discord server and request it.

View a list of all command store names

The names of some stores may be altered slightly in the commands. For example to add search terms to the scraper for Taylor Made Golf the store name becomes taylormadegolf; a full command being !m scraper add taylormadegolf "drivers". Use this command to view all of the command store names. Example:

!m storenames
