NCodebase

NCodebase is a .NET/Angular application built for scraping, parsing, and delivering structured data from a wide range of websites. Its architecture includes multiple backend services and a modular Angular frontend. The system is designed for extensible parsing logic and a flexible configuration layer that makes onboarding new data sources straightforward.

Key Features

• Multi‑Website Support

  • Clean architecture enables seamless onboarding of new website parsers. Currently supported websites:
    • Alternate
    • Hobauer
    • Kaufland
    • Mueller
    • Otto
    • In development (ebay, amazon, bricklink, brickowl, proshop)

• Modular Service Architecture

  • Clear separation of concerns with dedicated services for article search, blog management, database operations, and sandbox testing

• Background Processing

  • The background service executes asynchronous scraping tasks in the background without blocking the main application

• Extensible Design

  • Interface‑driven abstractions allow rapid extension of functionality and new integrations

• Comprehensive Data Models

  • Structured DTOs for blog articles, website metadata, and article information across all services

• Smart Configuration System

  • Centralized configuration (timeout parameters, XPath constants, and flexible static & dynamic parsing rules, ...)

• Robust Logging Framework

  • Dedicated logging utilities ensure consistent error tracking and debugging across all services

• AI‑Powered Data Intelligence (coming soon)

  • An upcoming AI analysis layer will evaluate scraped data, detect patterns, and generate enriched insights beyond the raw information
