Scrapes news articles, institutional announcements, and content from Beijing Dance Academy (北京舞蹈学院, bda.edu.cn) — China's apex classical-dance institution and the only national-level university dedicated exclusively to dance education.
What it does
The actor crawls BDA's WebPlus CMS across multiple content sections, extracting article metadata and optionally the full article body. Sections include:
| Section | Chinese name | Content |
|---|---|---|
xxyw | 学校要闻 | Campus news (~3,160 articles) |
tzgg | 信息公告 | Notices & announcements (~240 articles) |
jcdt | 基层动态 | Departmental updates (~1,600 articles) |
xzdt | 行政动态 | Administrative news |
sydt | 艺术实践 | Arts practice & exchange |
mtwy | 媒体舞院 | Media coverage |
Output
Each record contains:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
id | MD5 hash of the article URL (stable dedup key) |
page_url | Full canonical URL |
title | Article title (Chinese) |
category | Section slug (xxyw, tzgg, etc.) |
publish_date | Publication date (YYYY-MM-DD) |
body_html | Full HTML body (when scrapeBody: true) |
body_text | Plain-text body (when scrapeBody: true) |
attachments | Array of PDF/document URLs found in the article |
source_url | Listing page URL that linked to this article |
scrapedAt | ISO-8601 scrape timestamp |
Input options
| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
maxItems | integer | 10 | Maximum total articles to return |
sections | array | ["xxyw","tzgg"] | BDA content sections to crawl |
scrapeBody | boolean | true | Fetch full article body (slower but richer) |
Use cases
- AI training corpus: Chinese-language dance terminology, pedagogy, and institutional content
- Competitive intelligence: Track BDA admissions, recruitment, and program announcements
- Research: Academic study of Chinese dance education and institutional communications
- Media monitoring: Track BDA in Chinese media and faculty/program news
Notes
- Some articles in the notices section (
tzgg) link to external Chinese government procurement sites — these are saved with listing metadata only (no body), as they are off-domain. - WeChat article links (mp.weixin.qq.com) are also captured as listing-only records.
- The site is served from China but is fully accessible from US datacenter IPs — no proxy required.
- Conservative concurrency (3 concurrent requests) respects the CN-hosted university server.
