🇳🇬 Punch News Scraper

Want Punch Nigeria articles — full text, not just headlines — in a spreadsheet? This scraper makes it easy.

Use structured filters (topic) — better for AI agents — or paste an input_url. When input_url is set it overrides the filters.

Each row opens the public article (WordPress JSON, HTML fallback) so you get the body, author, and publish time. max_results is capped at 200 so a run stays under a few minutes.

💡 Perfect for...

Editors: Export News, Politics, Sports, and Business archives with the article text.
Dashboards: Track new Punch stories without paging by hand.
Market research: Slice by topic slug (news, politics, sports, …).
Data analysts: Export structured Punch rows with public article URLs and body text.
🤖 AI Agents: Power Claude, Cursor, Codex, the Hermes Agent, and OpenClaw workflows with live Punch results.
📚 RAG Systems: Feed titles and full article text into retrieval pipelines.
🔗 AI Workflows: Plug into LangChain, AutoGPT, CrewAI, and similar stacks.

✨ Why you'll love this scraper

🔗 Input URL or Filters: Paste /topics/news/ (input_url) or pick a topic. input_url always wins when set.
🎯 Website-Matched Filters: Same /topics/{slug}/ sections as punchng.com.
📰 Full article text: content is the body, not the archive card.

📦 What's inside the data?

Every row includes all of these fields:

Core: id, url, title, topic
Byline: author, published_at, excerpt, image_url
Body: content (HTML-stripped article text)

🚀 Quick start

Option A: paste https://punchng.com/topics/politics/. Option B: pick topic news and set max_results.

  "image_url": "https://cdn.punchng.com/wp-content/uploads/..."
}

Output fields:

Field	Description
`id`	Article slug.
`url`	Public Punch article URL.
`title`	Headline.
`topic`	Topic filter used for the run.
`author`	Byline when Punch publishes one.
`published_at`	Publish timestamp (GMT when the API sends it).
`excerpt`	Short standfirst.
`content`	Full article body, HTML stripped.
`image_url`	Featured / Open Graph image.

📋 Input reference

Parameter	Type	Required	Default	Description
`input_url`	string	No	—	`/topics/{slug}/` URL; overrides topic.
`topic`	string enum	No	`news`	Same `/topics/{slug}/` sections as the site.
`max_results`	integer	No	`20`	Full articles to return (`1`–`200`).

Notes

Rows without a body are skipped; the actor keeps reading cards until it has max_results articles with content.
The cap is 200 because each row fetches the article page.
