extruct is a library for extracting embedded metadata from HTML markup.
It also has a built-in HTTP server to test its output as JSON.
Currently, extruct only supports W3C's HTML Microdata and embedded JSON-LD.
- support for RDFa Lite (e.g. Facebook Open Graph protocol metadata)
pip install extruct

extruct also ships with a REST API service to test its output from URLs.
python -m extruct.service
launches an HTTP server listening on port 10005.
/extruct/<URL>
method = GET
/extruct/batch
method = POST
params:
urls - a list of URLs separted by newlines
urlsfile - a file with one URL per line
E.g. http://localhost:10005/extruct/http://www.sarenza.com/i-love-shoes-susket-s767163-p0000119412
will output something like this:
