Technical Implementation

Core Features Complete

  • Incremental Updates: All scrapers support state-based incremental fetching
  • Archive Management: Previous files automatically archived with timestamps
  • Markdown Conversion: All content properly converted to markdown format
  • HTML Cleaning: WordPress content now cleaned during extraction (no HTML/XML contamination)
  • Rate Limiting: Instagram optimized to 200 posts/hour (100% speed increase)
  • Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling and logging
  • Testing: 68+ passing tests across all components

Advanced Features

  • Backlog Processing: Full historical content fetching capability
  • Parallel Processing: 5 scrapers run in parallel (TikTok separate due to GUI)
  • Session Persistence: Instagram maintains login sessions
  • Anti-Bot Detection: TikTok uses advanced browser stealth techniques
  • NAS Synchronization: Automated rsync to network storage (media + markdown)
  • Caption Fetching: TikTok enhanced with individual video caption extraction

Deployment Strategy

Production Ready

  • Deployment Method: systemd services (revised from Kubernetes due to TikTok GUI requirements)
  • Scheduling: systemd timers for 8AM and 12PM ADT execution
  • Environment: Ubuntu with DISPLAY=:0 for TikTok headed browser
  • Dependencies: All packages managed via UV
  • Service Files: Complete systemd configuration provided

Configuration Files
