This is a firmware scraper that aims to download firmware images and associated metadata from supported device vendor websites.

• psycopg2
• scrapy

1. Configure the firmware/settings.py file. Comment out SQL_SERVER if metadata about downloaded firmware should not be inserted into a SQL server.

2. To run a specific scraper, e.g. dlink:

scrapy crawl dlink

To run all scrapers with maximum 4 in parallel, using GNU Parallel:

parallel -j 4 scrapy crawl ::: `for i in ./firmware/spiders/*.py; do basename ${i%.*}; done`
