maxPages |
u64? |
null |
Maximum number of pages to crawl. |
maxLinksPerPage |

null |
Maximum links enqueued from a single page. Defaults to 10000. Bounds the work one hostile or pathological page can create; links past the cap are dropped and a warning is logged. |
maxConcurrent |
u64? |
null |
Maximum number of concurrent requests. |
respectRobotsTxt |
bool |
false |
Whether to respect robots.txt directives. |
softHttpErrors |
bool |
false |
When true, HTTP-level error responses (404 NotFound, 403 Forbidden, WAF blocks) are surfaced as ScrapeResult records with the matching status_code rather than raised as CrawlError. Default false preserves the historical throw-on-error contract for direct fetches. Independently of this flag, 404s reached at the end of a redirect chain are always surfaced softly — the user opted into redirect-following, so receiving a 404 there is part of the normal flow rather than an unexpected error. |
userAgent |
\[:0\]const u8? |
null |
Custom user-agent string. |
stayOnDomain |
bool |
false |
Whether to restrict crawling to the same domain. |
allowSubdomains |

Timeout for individual HTTP requests (in milliseconds when serialized). |
rateLimitMs |
u64? |
null |
Per-domain rate limit in milliseconds. When set, enforces a minimum delay between requests to the same domain. Defaults to 200ms when null. |
maxRedirects |
u64 |
10 |
Maximum number of redirects to follow. |
retryCount |
u64 |
0 |
Number of retry attempts for failed requests. |
retryCodes |
\[\]const u16 |
\[\] |
HTTP status codes that should trigger a retry. |
cookiesEnabled |

captureScreenshot |
bool |
false |
Whether to capture a screenshot when using the browser. Only supported by scrape() with BrowserBackend.Chromiumoxide and BrowserMode.Always or Stealth. A screenshot is 100–500 KB of PNG per page, so crawl() does not carry screenshots in CrawlPageResult/CrawlResult at all — a multi-thousand-page crawl holding one per page in memory is not a safe default. Setting this with any other configuration (a different backend, BrowserMode.Auto/Never, or during crawl()) has no effect and logs a warning rather than silently doing nothing. |
followDocumentUrls |
bool |
false |
Re-enqueue discovered LinkType.Document URLs into the crawl frontier so the crawl follows links from document pages (PDFs, etc.) as it would from HTML pages. Default: false (documents terminate at materialisation). |
documentUrlDepth |
u32? |
null |
Maximum document-depth (from the seed URL through document links only) when follow_document_urls is true. null means inherit max_depth. Independent of max_depth: a document URL is enqueued only if BOTH the outer max_depth and (if set) document_url_depth permit it. |
downloadDocuments |
bool |
true |
Whether to download non-HTML documents (PDF, DOCX, images, code, etc.) instead of skipping them. Defaults to true — unlike download_assets and capture_screenshot, which default to false. |
documentMaxSize |
u64? |
52428800 |
Maximum size in bytes for document downloads. Defaults to 50 MB. |
documentMimeTypes |
\[\]const \[:0\]const u8 |
\[\] |
Allowlist of MIME types to download. If empty, uses built-in defaults. |
documentOutputDir |
\[:0\]const u8? |
null |
Directory to stream downloaded document bytes into instead of holding them in memory on DownloadedDocument.content. When set, content is left empty and DownloadedDocument.content_path is populated with <dir>/<content_hash>.<ext>. null (default) preserves today’s in-memory-only behavior. Has no effect on wasm32, which has no filesystem — use document_content_encoding there instead. |
documentContentEncoding |
DocumentContentEncoding? |
null |
Opt-in encoding that duplicates DownloadedDocument.content into a serializable field for language bindings that need the bytes in-memory (content itself is alef(skip)ed). null (default) means no encoding is produced. Independent of document_output_dir — set both to get a file on disk and an in-memory copy. |
warcOutput |
\[:0\]const u8? |
null |
Path to write WARC output. If null, WARC output is disabled. |
browserProfile |
\[:0\]const u8? |
null |
Named browser profile for persistent sessions (cookies, localStorage). Chromiumoxide backend only. The native backend runs an in-process JavaScript engine with no Chrome process and therefore no profile directory, so this is ignored there and logs a warning. It is also ignored — with a warning — when a shared browser pool is in use (the pool launches before any per-crawl config exists) or when connecting to an external CDP endpoint whose process crawlberg does not own. |
saveBrowserProfile |
bool |
false |
Whether to save changes back to the browser profile on exit. |
ssrf |
SsrfPolicy |
— | SSRF policy for outbound network requests. Default: deny private networks, allow http/https only, max 5 redirects. deny_private, allowlist and max_redirects are exposed to all language bindings. scheme_allowlist stays Rust-only — see SsrfPolicy. wasm32 (including Node.js): deny_private does not stop hostname-based requests. There is no DNS resolution on this target, so only a literal IP host is checked against the policy — a domain name is always permitted, regardless of deny_private. Under Node, where fetch enforces no CORS, this means a service embedding the wasm binding can be driven to internal hosts by domain name even with deny_private = true. Enforce egress restrictions at the network layer for that deployment target; do not rely on this field. See crawlberg.net.validate_url. |
ssrfDenyPrivateExplicit |
bool? |
null |
Pins SsrfPolicy.deny_private to a caller-chosen value, bypassing the CRAWLBERG_ALLOW_PRIVATE_NETWORK operator override entirely for this config. ssrf.deny_private is a plain, always-serialized bool: several alef-generated bindings construct SsrfPolicy.default() (hardcoding deny_private: true) whenever their caller never touches SSRF settings at all, so true on that field alone cannot distinguish “the caller wants private networks denied” from “the binding’s own structural default landed on true”. The environment variable exists precisely to resolve that ambiguity in the common case by treating any true as inconclusive and deferring to the operator. Set this field when that default-deferral is wrong for your call — e.g. a test that must prove deny_private: true still denies even while the operator has set CRAWLBERG_ALLOW_PRIVATE_NETWORK suite-wide for every other call. null (default) preserves today’s behavior: the environment variable may still flip ssrf.deny_private to false. Some(value) pins ssrf.deny_private to value and the environment variable is not consulted for this config. |

Methods
Section titled “Methods”uniqueNormalizedUrls()
Section titled “uniqueNormalizedUrls()”Returns the count of unique normalized URLs encountered during crawling.
Computed from pages (not the deprecated normalized_urls field) so it
is correct across every binding that reconstructs CrawlResult from
pages alone. In streaming mode pages is empty, so this returns 0 on
the opaque-handle (C/Go/C#/Zig/Dart) path where it previously counted
streamed pages — a known, accepted cost of making the other ten binding
families correct.

allowlist |
\[\]const HostMatcher |
\[\] |
Hostnames and IP ranges permitted regardless of deny_private. The allowlist is an override of deny_private, not an intersection with it. Precedence, in order: 1. deny_private == false permits everything; the allowlist is not consulted. 2. A hostname matching an Exact or Suffix entry is permitted immediately, before DNS resolution — so the deny-list is never applied to it. This trusts the host string: a name that resolves into private space is still permitted. 3. A literal or resolved IP inside a Cidr entry is permitted even though it is in the default deny-list. 4. Otherwise the default deny-list decides. An empty allowlist therefore denies nothing by itself — it simply leaves deny_private and the deny-list in sole control. |
maxRedirects |
u8 |
5 |
Maximum number of HTTP redirects to follow during validation. |
Methods
Section titled “Methods”default()
Section titled “default()”Signature:
pub fn default() SsrfPolicyExample:
const result = SsrfPolicy.default();Returns: SsrfPolicy
fromEnv()
Section titled “fromEnv()”Create a policy from environment variables.
On native platforms, reads CRAWLBERG_ALLOW_PRIVATE_NETWORK — if set to “1” or “true”
(case-insensitive), sets deny_private = false. Otherwise, defaults to deny_private = true.
On wasm32 targets (browser/Node.js), environment variables are not accessible to the
compiled module. Defaults to deny_private = false because:
- Outbound requests in a browser go through the fetch API, which enforces its own network policies.
- Rust-side SSRF checking is unenforceable and redundant in a wasm32 context.
- For testing and localhost access, the host’s network sandbox is the enforcing boundary.
Node.js caveat: deny_private (whatever its value) has no effect on hostname-based
requests under wasm32. There is no DNS resolution on this target, so validate_url
only ever checks a literal IP host; a domain name falls straight through to Ok(()). In a
browser this is covered by same-origin/CORS. Node’s fetch enforces no CORS, so a Node
service embedding this wasm module can be driven to internal hosts by domain name even
though deny_private = true. Do not rely on this policy to stop that in Node — enforce
egress restrictions (network policy, firewall, proxy allowlist) outside the process.
Signature:
pub fn fromEnv() SsrfPolicyExample:
const result = SsrfPolicy.fromEnv();Returns: SsrfPolicy
BrowserMode
Section titled “BrowserMode”When to use the headless browser fallback.

Always use the browser for every request. |
Never |
Never use the browser fallback. |
Stealth |
Always use the browser with all stealth surfaces enabled. Behaves like Always for escalation purposes (every request is routed through the browser tier), but additionally enables: - browser JavaScript stealth patches - native-backend TLS fingerprint spoofing - stealth-aware default user-agent when no explicit UA is set - 1920×1080 viewport override Use this instead of setting the now-removed BrowserConfig.stealth boolean field. |

DocumentContentEncoding
Section titled “DocumentContentEncoding”Opt-in encoding applied to a downloaded document’s bytes for callers who need the content available in a serializable field rather than reading it from disk.
