GPT Crawler

Crawl a site to generate knowledge files to create your own custom GPT from one or multiple URLs

Gif showing the crawl run

Example

Here is a custom GPT that I quickly made to help answer questions about how to use and integrate Builder.io by simply providing the URL to the Builder docs.

This project crawled the docs and generated the file that I uploaded as the basis for the custom GPT.

Try it out yourself by asking questions about how to integrate Builder.io into a site.

Note that you may need a paid ChatGPT plan to access this feature

Get started

Running locally

Clone the repository

Be sure you have Node.js >= 16 installed.

git clone https://github.com/builderio/gpt-crawler

Install dependencies

npm i

Configure the crawler

Open config.ts and edit the url and selectors properties to match your needs.

E.g. to crawl the Builder.io docs to make our custom GPT you can use:

export const defaultConfig: Config = {
  url: "https://www.builder.io/c/docs/developers",
  match: "https://www.builder.io/c/docs/**",
  selector: `.docs-builder-container`,
  maxPagesToCrawl: 50,
  outputFileName: "output.json",
};

See config.ts for all available options. Here is a sample of the common configu options:

type Config = {
  /** URL to start the crawl, if sitemap is provided then it will be used instead and download all pages in the sitemap */
  url: string;
  /** Pattern to match against for links on a page to subsequently crawl */
  match: string;
  /** Selector to grab the inner text from */
  selector: string;
  /** Don't crawl more than this many pages */
  maxPagesToCrawl: number;
  /** File name for the finished data */
  outputFileName: string;
  /** Optional resources to exclude
   *
   * @example
   * ['png','jpg','jpeg','gif','svg','css','js','ico','woff','woff2','ttf','eot','otf','mp4','mp3','webm','ogg','wav','flac','aac','zip','tar','gz','rar','7z','exe','dmg','apk','csv','xls','xlsx','doc','docx','pdf','epub','iso','dmg','bin','ppt','pptx','odt','avi','mkv','xml','json','yml','yaml','rss','atom','swf','txt','dart','webp','bmp','tif','psd','ai','indd','eps','ps','zipx','srt','wasm','m4v','m4a','webp','weba','m4b','opus','ogv','ogm','oga','spx','ogx','flv','3gp','3g2','jxr','wdp','jng','hief','avif','apng','avifs','heif','heic','cur','ico','ani','jp2','jpm','jpx','mj2','wmv','wma','aac','tif','tiff','mpg','mpeg','mov','avi','wmv','flv','swf','mkv','m4v','m4p','m4b','m4r','m4a','mp3','wav','wma','ogg','oga','webm','3gp','3g2','flac','spx','amr','mid','midi','mka','dts','ac3','eac3','weba','m3u','m3u8','ts','wpl','pls','vob','ifo','bup','svcd','drc','dsm','dsv','dsa','dss','vivo','ivf','dvd','fli','flc','flic','flic','mng','asf','m2v','asx','ram','ra','rm','rpm','roq','smi','smil','wmf','wmz','wmd','wvx','wmx','movie','wri','ins','isp','acsm','djvu','fb2','xps','oxps','ps','eps','ai','prn','svg','dwg','dxf','ttf','fnt','fon','otf','cab']
   */
  resourceExclusions?: string[];
  /** Optional maximum file size in megabytes to include in the output file */
  maxFileSize?: number;
  /** Optional maximum number tokens to include in the output file */
  maxTokens?: number;
};

Run your crawler

npm start

Alternative methods

To obtain the output.json with a containerized execution. Go into the containerapp directory. Modify the config.ts same as above, the output.jsonfile should be generated in the data folder. Note : the outputFileName property in the config.ts file in containerapp folder is configured to work with the container.

Upload your data to OpenAI

The crawl will generate a file called output.json at the root of this project. Upload that to OpenAI to create your custom assistant or custom GPT.

Create a custom GPT

Use this option for UI access to your generated knowledge that you can easily share with others

Note: you may need a paid ChatGPT plan to create and use custom GPTs right now

  1. Go to https://chat.openai.com/
  2. Click your name in the bottom left corner
  3. Choose "My GPTs" in the menu
  4. Choose "Create a GPT"
  5. Choose "Configure"
  6. Under "Knowledge" choose "Upload a file" and upload the file you generated
  7. if you get an error about the file being too large, you can try to split it into multiple files and upload them separately using the option maxFileSize in the config.ts file or also use tokenization to reduce the size of the file with the option maxTokens in the config.ts file

Create a custom assistant

Use this option for API access to your generated knowledge that you can integrate into your product.

  1. Go to https://platform.openai.com/assistants
  2. Click "+ Create"
  3. Choose "upload" and upload the file you generated
