A Guide to Scraping with Go & GitHub Actions

Automating web scraping using Go, chromedp, and GitHub Actions.

How It Works

  1. A Go script (main.go) uses chromedp to open quotes.toscrape.com.
  2. The script scrapes the first 10 quotes rendered with JavaScript.
  3. The data is saved to a file: public/data.json.
  4. A GitHub Actions workflow (.github/workflows/scrape.yml) runs the Go script on a schedule.
  5. The workflow automatically commits data.json if new data is found.
  6. This page loads and displays the scraped results below.
