- Another thing this commit introduces is the concept of the Relevance Content Filter. This is an improvement over Fit Markdown. This class of strategies aims to extract the main content from a given page - the part that really matters and is useful to be processed. One strategy has been created using the BM25 algorithm, which finds chunks of text from the web page relevant to its title, descriptions, and keywords, or supports a given user query and matches them. The result is then returned to the main engine to be converted to Markdown. Plans include adding approaches using language models as well.
- The cache database was updated to hold information about response headers and downloaded files.
• Add smart overlay removal system for handling popups and modals
• Improve screenshot functionality with configurable timing controls
• Implement URL normalization and enhanced link processing
• Add custom base directory support for cache storage
• Refine external content filtering and social media domain handling
This commit significantly improves the crawler's ability to handle modern
websites by automatically removing intrusive overlays and providing better
screenshot capabilities. URL handling is now more robust with proper
normalization and duplicate detection. The cache system is more flexible
with customizable base directory support.
