Git scraping is the name I’ve given a scraping technique that I’ve been experimenting with for a few years now. It’s really effective, and more people should use it. Update …

      Assuming each action takes 1 minute, it will use (assuming 30 days in the month) 2160 minutes exceeding the 2000 free tier monthly limit.

      But apparently Gitea Actions are compatible so you could go with that.

        And that’s just a single repository. Although for a single JSON scrape it shouldn’t take a full minute

          According to the Actions log for that repository it generally takes about 11-16 seconds per scrape, nowhere near a full minute. Worst case, if it’s 16 seconds every time, for a 31-day month that’s 31 days * 72 actions/day * 16 sec/action = 595.2 minutes, well within the free tier limit.

          And if it does become a problem it can easily be scaled down to once per hour or something with a single git commit.
