Project Summary

PulsarRPA is an open-source, distributed browser automation platform designed for large-scale data extraction and AI-driven web automation. It targets developers and businesses needing to automate complex, dynamic websites, offering features like LLM integration for smarter interactions and an SQL-like query language for efficient data mining.

How It Works

PulsarRPA leverages a high-performance, thread-safe architecture for "spider-grade" browser automation. Its core innovation lies in its "X-SQL" query language, an extension of SQL that allows direct manipulation and extraction of web page DOM elements and content, including natural language prompts for LLM-based data extraction and analysis. This approach aims to simplify complex web scraping tasks and enable more intelligent automation workflows.

Quick Start & Requirements

  • Install/Run: Download the executable JAR (PulsarRPA.jar) and run with java -jar PulsarRPA.jar. Docker is also available: docker run -d -p 8182:8182 galaxyeye88/pulsar-rpa:latest.
  • Prerequisites: Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is required for the JAR. Docker is needed for the containerized version. An API key for Deepseek is optional for AI features.
  • Links: Quick Start Guide, Demo Videos
