Fix critical issue where unmatched URLs incorrectly used the first config instead of failing safely. Also clarify that configs without url_matcher match ALL URLs by design, and improve memory usage monitoring.
Bug fixes:
- Change select_config() to return None when no config matches instead of using first config
- Add proper error handling in dispatchers when no config matches a URL
- Return failed CrawlResult with "No matching configuration found" error message
- Fix is_match() to return True when url_matcher is None (matches all URLs)
- Import and use get_true_memory_usage_percent() for more accurate memory monitoring
Behavior clarification:
- CrawlerRunConfig with url_matcher=None matches ALL URLs (not nothing)
- This is the intended behavior for default/fallback configurations
- Enables clean pattern: specific configs first, default config last
Documentation updates:
- Clarify that configs without url_matcher match everything
- Explain "No matching configuration found" error when no default config
- Add examples showing proper default config usage
- Update all relevant docs: multi-url-crawling.md, arun_many.md, parameters.md
- Simplify API config examples by removing extraction_strategy
Demo and test updates:
- Update demo_multi_config_clean.py with commented default config to show behavior
- Change example URL to w3schools.com to demonstrate no-match scenario
- Uncomment all test URLs in test_multi_config.py for comprehensive testing
Breaking changes: None - this restores the intended behavior
This ensures URLs only get processed with appropriate configs, preventing
issues like HTML pages being processed with PDF extraction strategies.
