changedetection.io

Self-hosted change monitoring of web pages.

Know when web pages change! Stay ontop of new information!

Example use cases

Know when ...

• Government department updates (changes are often only on their websites)
• Local government news (changes are often only on their websites)
• New software releases, security advisories when you're not on their mailing list.
• Festivals with changes
• Realestate listing changes

Get monitoring now! super simple, one command!

docker run -d --restart always -p "127.0.0.1:5000:5000" -v datastore-volume:/datastore --name changedetection.io dgtlmoon/changedetection.io

Now visit http://127.0.0.1:5000 , You should now be able to access the UI.

Updating to latest version

Highly recommended :)

docker pull dgtlmoon/changedetection.io
docker kill $(docker ps -a|grep changedetection.io|awk '{print $1}')
docker rm $(docker ps -a|grep changedetection.io|awk '{print $1}')
docker run -d --restart always -p "127.0.0.1:5000:5000" -v datastore-volume:/datastore --name changedetection.io dgtlmoon/changedetection.io

Screenshots

Examining differences in content.

Future plans

• Greater configuration of check interval times, page request headers.
• General options for timeout, default headers
• On change detection, callout to another API (handy for notices/issue trackers)
• Explore the differences that were detected
• Add more options to explore versions of differences
• Use a graphic/rendered page difference instead of text (see the experimental selenium-screenshot-diff branch)
