Handling Dynamic Content

Some websites load their content dynamically using JavaScript. The default html2rss strategy might not see this content.

Solution

Section titled “Solution”

Use the browserless strategy to render JavaScript-heavy websites with a headless browser.

When to Use Browserless

Section titled “When to Use Browserless”

The browserless strategy is necessary when:

  • Content loads after page load - JavaScript fetches data from APIs
  • Single Page Applications (SPAs) - React, Vue, Angular apps
  • Infinite scroll - Content loads as you scroll
  • Dynamic forms - Content changes based on user interaction

Performance Considerations

Section titled “Performance Considerations”

The browserless strategy is slower than the default faraday strategy because it:

  • Launches a headless Chrome browser
  • Renders the full page with JavaScript
  • Takes more memory and CPU resources

Use faraday for static content and only switch to browserless when necessary.
