Curseforge Parsing

I'm sick of not being able to filter by 2 different criteria when searching mods or modpacks on curseforge.

so this is the first part of my attempt at some sort of workaround


Using selenium I'm going to scrape the curseforge site and pull all the information I can about the modpacks and use that my own database. Don't know what happens after this. I'll deal with that once I get there.

using

  • java
  • Selenium
  • Selenium Webdriver manager
  • SLF4J as my logger.

I haven't decided a database tech yet, leaning towards MySQL since I know it, but also considering MongoDB. I am also open to suggestions.

Open to other ideas, and contributions,

Still learning GitHub, so I apologize if I don't get to merge requests quickly
