My new tutorial – Web Scraping with NodeJS – is up on Nettuts+. I go through basic scraping methods but the real gold is in the second half, where I talk about using PhantomJS to scrape dynamic pages (pages with AJAX content). Check it out!

Saw on tutsplus lots of comments about “No path or port provided”. I had this problem too and found a solution to fix it. As i have no account at Tutsplus i will post it here:
– Go to the phantomjs version (the node.js version).
– Remove node_modules/dnode + node_modules/dnode-protocol
– open package.json
– change :
“dependencies”: {
“dnode-protocol”: “*”,
“dnode”: “*”,
“express”: “*”
},
to
“dependencies”: {
“dnode-protocol”: “~0.2.2”,
“dnode”: “~0.9.12”,
“express”: “*”
},
– in the phantomjs folder excecute: “npm install phantom”
– The error is gone
Thanks so much! I’ll post it there and credit you.
