  • Static analysis of source code for improved web crawling
    Patent number: 12681998
    Abstract: The processing logic (e.g., a web crawler program) receives a server output from a server hosting a web page and downloads content from the server output. The server output can include embedded resources, including source code files. The processing logic parses the source code and generates a plurality of elements into a data structure as elements. The data structure is made up of multiple elements, each element representing a language construct extracted from the source code. The processing logic can evaluate the elements of the data structure to identify and retrieve request components pertinent. Using the one or more request components retrieved from the data structure, the processing logic can generate server requests. The web crawler will send each server request to the server to receive a subsequent server output and continue the crawl.
