README

Surf

Build Status GoDoc Documentation MIT License

Surf is a Go (golang) library that implements a virtual web browser that you control programmatically. Surf isn't just another Go solution for downloading content from the web. Surf is designed to behave like web browser, and includes: cookie management, history, bookmarking, user agent spoofing (with a nifty user agent builder), submitting forms, DOM selection and traversal via jQuery style CSS selectors, scraping assets like images, stylesheets, and other features.

Installation

Download the library using go. go get gopkg.in/headzoo/surf.v1

Import the library into your project. import "gopkg.in/headzoo/surf.v1"

Quick Start
package main

import (
	"gopkg.in/headzoo/surf.v1"
	"fmt"
)

func main() {
	bow := surf.NewBrowser()
	err := bow.Open("http://golang.org")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	// Outputs: "The Go Programming Language"
	fmt.Println(bow.Title())
}
