Portia is a tool that allows you to visually scrape websites without any programming knowledge required. With Portia you can annotate a web page to identify the data you wish to extract, and Portia will understand based on these annotations how to scrape data from similar pages.
To try Portia for free without needing to install anything sign up for an account at scrapinghub and you can use our hosted version.
The easiest way to run Portia is using Docker.
You can run Portia using docker by running:
docker run -v ~/portia_projects:/app/data/projects:rw -p 9001:9001 scrapinghub/portia
For more detailed instructions, and alternatives to using Docker, see the Installation docs.
