Description:

• A scraper that searches the web and returns structured results including the page title, URL, and description.
• Supports both ES5 and ES6 JavaScript, plus TypeScript.
• Zero external runtime dependencies — built with Node's native https module and Cheerio.
• Scraping a website is not always allowed by the website owners. This project is made for educational purposes only.

Installation:

npm i @fantox01/search-it

yarn add @fantox01/search-it

Usage:

• For ES5 Javascript

const { searchit } = require("@fantox01/search-it");

const main = async () => {
  const data = await searchit("cloudflare", 5);
  console.log(data);
};
main();

• For ES6 Javascript / Typescript

import { searchit } from "@fantox01/search-it";

const main = async () => {
  const data = await searchit("cloudflare", 5);
  console.log(data);
};
main();

Output:

• Returns an array of result objects, each with index, page, url, and desc.

[
  {
    index: 0,
    page: 'Connect, protect, and build everywhere | Cloudflare',
    url: 'https://www.cloudflare.com/',
    desc: 'Agents are the future of AI, and Cloudflare is the best place to get started...'
  },
  {
    index: 1,
    page: 'Cloudflare - Wikipedia',
    url: 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloudflare',
    desc: 'Cloudflare, Inc. is an American technology company...'
  },
  ...
