pepeScraper - 4chan scraper

A complete scraper for 4chan (Now that's fast.)

pepeScraper is a scraper that uses context for your searches and returns exactly what you want. (I'm learning how to make an item look cooler than it actually is)

• Enter keywords, anything you can think of (just be careful what you search for 👀)
• Control the results by date and exclude what you don't want to appear.
• Control the search speed of this program (do not confuse the processing thread with the 4chan thread)

Weird stuff

Installation

If you use Windows, just go to releases and download the latest version and then install the dependencies. If you want to help and have access to the source code, use the code below.

    git clone https://github.com/JuaanReis/pepeScraper.git
    cd ./pepeScraper
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    py main.py --help

Example

I don't even know what this meme means (and fuck you if you do).

Privacy and Data Storage

PepeScraper does NOT automatically store anything.
it only uses the API and creates a direct link to 4chan.
No logs, no history, no databases, no Facebook copy (maybe you understand).
You have the option to save images of the boards, logs, and output results, but nothing is automatic (unless you choose this option in the configuration file)

Everything is stored in RAM and deleted when the program finishes. (That's right, your mom won't find out what you searched for.)

Please don't sue me, I don't have the money to pay a lawyer. (Sometimes there isn't even enough money to buy food.)

Careful with NSFW Content

I'm serious, pornography can destroy your brain, your body, and your family (no matter how many times I write this, you'll ignore it).

    python main.py --keyword "pepe" --date 01/01/2025

This can make your research perhaps safer (I don't know if I programmed this right).
