Signature

reader.scrape(options: ScrapeOptions): Promise<ScrapeResult>

Minimal example

const result = await reader.scrape({
  urls: ["https://example.com"],
  formats: ["markdown"],
});

console.log(result.data[0].markdown);

Multi-URL example

const result = await reader.scrape({
  urls: [
    "https://example.com",
    "https://example.org",
    "https://example.net",
  ],
  formats: ["markdown", "html"],
  batchConcurrency: 2,
  onProgress: ({ completed, total }) => {
    console.log(`${completed}/${total}`);
  },
});

console.log(`Success: ${result.batchMetadata.successfulUrls}`);

Parameter

options: ScrapeOptions - see ScrapeOptions for the full field list.

The only required field is urls: string[]. Everything else has sensible defaults.

Return type

Promise<ScrapeResult> - see ScrapeResult for the full shape.

Key fields:

{
  data: WebsiteScrapeResult[];    // One entry per successful URL
  batchMetadata: {
    totalUrls: number;
    successfulUrls: number;
    failedUrls: number;
    totalDuration: number;
    errors?: Array<{ url: string; error: string }>;
  };
}

Single vs batch behavior

• Single URL - urls: [oneUrl]. data has one entry.
• Multiple URLs - urls: [url1, url2, ...]. Set batchConcurrency to control parallelism.

scrape() behaves the same way in both cases - the only difference is the number of URLs and the parallelism. There's no separate single-URL method.

Error behavior

scrape() does not throw on individual URL failures. Failed URLs are reported in result.batchMetadata.errors, and only successful results appear in result.data.

scrape() does throw on:

• Invalid options (ValidationError)
• All engines exhausted for a single URL (RetryBudgetExhaustedError)
• Browser pool exhausted (PoolExhaustedError)
• Client closed (ClientClosedError)
