🚀 Features

• 🕸️ Multi-Backend Scraping: Choose between FireCrawl for robust, API-driven scraping and Crawl4AI for local, Playwright-based scraping.
• 🧠 Intelligent Extraction: Use powerful LLMs (NVIDIA or Google Gemini) to understand your query and extract specific information from scraped content.
• 📊 Structured Output: Get answers in markdown tables, JSON, or plain text, as requested.
• 📈 Full Observability: Integrated with Langfuse to trace both scraping and LLM-extraction steps.
• ✨ Interactive UI: A clean and simple interface built with Gradio.
• 🐳 Docker-Ready: Comes with Dockerfile and docker-compose configurations for easy local and production deployment.

📦 Installation

Option 1: Run Locally

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/KI-IAN/llm-web-scrapper.git
   cd llm-web-scrapper

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Install Playwright browsers (for Crawl4AI):

   playwright install

4. Create a .env file in the root directory with your API keys:

   GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_google_api_key
   NVIDIA_API_KEY=your_nvidia_api_key
   FIRECRAWL_API_KEY=your_firecrawl_api_key
   
   # Optional: For Langfuse tracing
   LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY=pk-lf-...
   LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY=sk-lf-...
   LANGFUSE_HOST=https://cloud.langfuse.com

5. Run the application:

   python app.py

---

Option 2: Run with Docker

1. For Production: This uses the standard docker-compose.yml.

   docker compose up --build

2. For Local Development (with live code reload): This uses docker-compose.dev.yml to mount your local code into the container.

   docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up --build

Access the app at http://localhost:12200.

🔑 Getting API Keys

To use this app, you'll need API keys for Google Gemini, NVIDIA NIM, and FireCrawl. For full observability, you'll also need keys for Langfuse.

🌐 Gemini API Key

Gemini is Google's family of generative AI models. To get an API key:

1. Visit the Google AI Studio.
2. Sign in with your Google account.
3. Click "Create API Key" and copy the key shown.
4. Use this key in your .env file or configuration as GEMINI_API_KEY.

Note: Gemini API access may be limited based on region or account eligibility. Check the Gemini API Rate Limits here

🌐 NVIDIA NIM API Key

NIM (NVIDIA Inference Microservices) provides hosted models via REST APIs. To get started:

1. Go to the NVIDIA API Catalog.
2. Choose a model (e.g., nim-gemma, nim-mistral, etc.) and click "Get API Key".
3. Sign in or create an NVIDIA account if prompted.
4. Copy your key and use it as NVIDIA_NIM_API_KEY in your environment.

Tip: You can test NIM endpoints directly in the browser before integrating.

🌐 FireCrawl API Key

1. Sign up at FireCrawl.
2. Find your API key in the dashboard.

🌐 Langfuse API Keys (Optional)

1. Sign up or log in at Langfuse Cloud.
2. Navigate to your project settings and then to the "API Keys" tab.
3. Create a new key pair to get your LANGFUSE_PUBLIC_KEY (starts with pk-lf-...) and LANGFUSE_SECRET_KEY (starts with sk-lf-...).
4. Add these to your .env file to enable tracing.

🧪 How to Use

1. Enter a URL: Provide the URL of the web page you want to analyze.
2. Define Your Query: Specify what you want to extract (e.g., "product name, price, and rating" or "summarize this article").
3. Scrape the Web Page: Choose a scraper (Crawl4AI or FireCrawl) and click "Scrape Website".
4. Select Model & Provider: Choose an LLM to process the scraped content.
5. Extract Info: Click "Extract Info by LLM" to get a structured answer.
