BrowserBackend.CHROMIUMOXIDE |
Browser backend used to render JavaScript-heavy pages. |
endpoint |
str \| None |

extra_wait |
float \| None |
None |
Extra time to wait after the wait condition is met. |
stealth |

None |
Proxy for browser fetches. Overrides CrawlConfig.proxy when set. Native backend supports http/https only (no SOCKS5). |
block_url_patterns |
list[str] |
[] |
URL patterns to block before the network request fires. Supports * wildcards. Useful for skipping ads/analytics/large images. Honored by BrowserBackend.Native; chromiumoxide ignores this field today. |
eval_script |
str \| None |
None |
JavaScript snippet evaluated after navigation completes. Scraping captures the native backend result in ScrapeResult.browser.eval_result. Interactions run this script before page actions on both browser backends but do not include the script result in InteractionResult. |

User-agent used when fetching robots.txt. Defaults to BrowserConfig.user_agent (or kreuzcrawl's default) if unset. Native only. |
capture_network_events |
bool |
False |
Capture the full network event stream into the result. Default false (only the document event is captured). Native only. |
session_affinity |

CrawlConfig¶

soft_http_errors |
bool |
False |
When true, HTTP-level error responses (404 NotFound, 403 Forbidden, WAF blocks) are surfaced as ScrapeResult records with the matching status_code rather than raised as CrawlError. Default False preserves the historical throw-on-error contract for direct fetches. Independently of this flag, 404s reached at the end of a redirect chain are always surfaced softly — the user opted into redirect-following, so receiving a 404 there is part of the normal flow rather than an unexpected error. |

Custom user-agent string. |
stay_on_domain |
bool |
False |
Whether to restrict crawling to the same domain. |

list[str] |
[] |
Allowlist of MIME types to download. If empty, uses built-in defaults. |

str \| None |
None |

Whether to save changes back to the browser profile on exit. |
dispatch |
str \| None |
None |
Pluggable dispatch components: bypass provider, escalation strategy, retry policy, WAF classifier, domain state, escalation budget, and max_total_attempts. When None, the engine uses its built-in defaults (no bypass, BrowserOnly strategy, SimpleRetryPolicy, built-in WAF classifier, no domain state, unlimited budget, 10 total attempt cap).
