# changedetection.io
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Self-hosted change monitoring of web pages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
_Why?_ Many years ago I had used a couple of web site change detection/monitoring services,
|
|
|
|
but they got bought up by larger media companies, after this, whenI logged in they
|
|
|
|
wanted _even more_ private data about me.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
All I simply wanted todo was to know which pages were changing and when (and maybe see
|
|
|
|
some basic information about what those changes were)

$ git clone https://github.com/dgtlmoon/changedetection.io.git

|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now visit http://127.0.0.1:5000 , The interface will now expose the UI, you can change this in the `docker-compose.yml`

### 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.
|

|
|
|
- Use a graphic/rendered page difference instead of text (see the experimental `selenium-screenshot-diff` branch)
