Obtaining the WeChat public account article list requires 3 special parameters:

• _biz: the id of the official account

These three parameters are obtained through the http proxy, and the rest is what ordinary crawlers do.

Save to MySql

• You need to execute the SQL statement in the /doc/mysql.sql file to create the table

• Thread configuration

  Time interval: The unit is milliseconds. Assume that the time interval is 500. A single thread will finish downloading an article and wait for 500 milliseconds before continuing to download. Multi-threading means downloading articles asynchronously every 500 milliseconds without waiting for the previous article to be downloaded.

  Single batch quantity: Assuming that the single batch quantity is 10, 10 articles will be downloaded asynchronously at the same time each time. Wait for the download of these 10 articles to be completed, and then continue to download 10 articles.

• filter rules

  Currently supports keyword filtering for titles and authors

   {"title": {"include": ["Include keyword 1", "Include keyword 2"], "exclude": ["Exclude keyword 1", "Exclude keyword 2"]
  },"auth": {"include": ["Include keyword 1", "Include keyword 2"],"exclude": ["Exclude keyword 1", "Exclude keyword 2"]
  }
  }

  For example, if the author is Zhang San and the title contains Good Guys, that would be

   {"title": {"include": ["Good Guy"]
  },"auth": {"include": ["Zhang San"]
  }
  }
