Mechanize
Mechanize هي مكتبة Ruby لأتمتة متصفح الويب ومحاكاة المتصفح بدون واجهة رسومية (headless). تسمح بالتنقل برمجياً في المواقع الإلكترونية ومحاكاة سلوك الإنسان دون الحاجة إلى واجهة مستخدم رسومية.
توفر المكتبة واجهة آلية لملء وإرسال نماذج الويب، بما في ذلك حقول النصوص، ومربعات الاختيار، ورفع الملفات. تدير الجلسات ذات الحالة عن طريق تخزين وإرسال ملفات تعريف الارتباط (cookies) تلقائياً عبر طلبات متعددة للحفاظ على مصادقة المستخدم وهويته.
تشمل القدرات الإضافية كشط بيانات الويب (web scraping)، والقدرة على تنزيل محتوى الويب البعيد، والحفاظ على سجل تنقل زمني لتتبع الصفحات التي تمت زيارتها. تقوم المكتبة بتحليل استجابات HTML إلى نموذج كائن منظم لتمكين الاستعلام البرمجي والتفاعل مع عناصر الصفحة.
