alphabits v0.3.0

Alphabits

Scrape a number of pages asynchronously and write out your data in one file when done. It generally assumes that you are scraping a series of webpages whose urls vary by a different parameter.

Can output json (default) or csv if json is properly formatted, i.e. one dimensional.

See the example for an example setup. Better documentation to come.

I used to use node-scraper but its dependency on jsdom made it heavy and had memory-leak issues on large jobs. Cheerio is a much lighter alternative.
