Introduction
The spiders reviewed here range from relatively simple to vastly complex and versatile. Because of this projects' requirement for GPL licencing, some spiders have been discounted from the original long list, see excluded spiders for details. What remains can be classified as follows.
- Simple spiders
- Basic single- and multi-threaded spiders designed for limited purposes, includes HouseSpider, Spindle and Arachnid.
- Advanced spiders
- Complex spiders that support multiple content types, variable post-processing options and advanced HTTP handling, includes Metis and Heretrix.
