Welcome to the MetaDataScraper documentation!#

MetaDataScraper is a Python package designed to automate the extraction of information like follower counts, and post details & interactions from a public Facebook page, in the form of a list. It uses Selenium WebDriver for web automation and scraping. The module provides two classes: LoginlessScraper and LoggedInScraper. The LoginlessScraper class does not require any authentication or API keys to scrape the data. However, it has a drawback of being unable to access some Facebook pages. The LoggedInScraper class overcomes this drawback by utilising the credentials of a Facebook account (of user) to login and scrape the data.
