crawler.rs

//! The core Crawler implementation for the `spider-lib` framework.
//!
//! This module defines the `Crawler` struct, which acts as the central orchestrator
//! for the web scraping process. It ties together the scheduler, downloader,
//! middlewares, spiders, and item pipelines to execute a crawl. The crawler
//! manages the lifecycle of requests and items, handles concurrency, supports
//! checkpointing for fault tolerance, and collects statistics for monitoring.
//!
//! It utilizes a task-based asynchronous model, spawning distinct tasks for
//! handling initial requests, downloading web pages, parsing responses, and
//! processing scraped items.
