I’ve set up a few scrapers on my Raspberry Pi before, mostly using Python libraries like Beautiful Soup and lxml, and I have to agree that each website is its own beast when it comes to structure. I usually have to tweak my approach for every new site, especially when the layout changes. Sometimes the simplest thing is just to see if the site has an API, but if not, string matching and parsing with these libraries typically get the job done for one-off scripts. If you end up needing help with a bigger project, especially anything to do with website data, automation, or scraping, I recently saw an agency(redacted) that offers custom solutions for this sort of thing.
