Crawls websites using raw HTTP requests, parses the HTML with the Cheerio library, and extracts data from the pages using a Node.js code. Supports both recursive crawling and lists of URLs. This actor is a high-performance alternative to apify/web-scraper for websites that do not require JavaScript.

Tried migrating from Web Crawler but `cheerio().map()` doesn't seem to work the same
Closed
I got most of the original logic working, but the 2 fields I generate by mapping over elements and returning a property of that element doesn't seem to be working. I can't tell if the mapping is broken or if the element doesn't actually contain a property in this worker.
The fields that are showing up empty are details and categories, whereas details was a large block of HTML, categories was actually a couple of strings and should be trivial
Figured it out. Man the cheerio documentation is kind of a headache. Thanks for pointing this idea out to me, it works great!
