Just a simple lil web scraper for the Heathcliff webcomic. An improved verison of a similar project I made a few years ago, this time without requiring AWS Lambda, and all nice and dockerised.

Setup

Docker is recommended:

Clone the repo (or just download the compose file), then run:

docker compose up -d

Sidenote, the image is just hosted on this gitea instance running on a thin client. If it's slow, just build the image yourself sorry!!

Or if you just want to run the python file,

clone the repo
create and activate a virtualenv: virtualenv .venv; source .venv/bin/activate
install the requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt
run the app: fastapi run main.py
