| 27 | + - `indexFile:` filename for index page *(optional, default: 'index.html')* |
| 28 | + - `srcToLoad:` array of objects to load, specifies selectors and attribute values to select files for loading *(optional, see example below)* |
| 29 | + - `directories:` array of objects, specifies relative directories for extensions. If `null` all files will be saved to `path` *(optional, see example below)* |
| 30 | + |

| 39 | +##Examples |
| 40 | +Let's scrape [http://nodejs.org/](http://nodejs.org/) with images, css, js files and save them to `/path/to/save/`. Index page will be named 'myIndex.html', files will be separated into directories: |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | + - `img` for .jpg, .png (full path `/path/to/save/img`) |
| 43 | + - `js` for .js (full path `/path/to/save/js`) |
| 44 | + - `css` for .css (full path `/path/to/save/css`) |
| 45 | + - `font` for .ttf, .woff, .eot, .svg (full path `/path/to/save/font`) |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +```javascript |
| 48 | +scraper.scrape({ |
| 49 | + url: 'http://nodejs.org/', |
| 50 | + path: '/path/to/save', |
| 51 | + indexFile: 'myIndex.html', |
| 52 | + srcToLoad: [ |
| 53 | + {selector: 'img', attr: 'src'}, |
| 54 | + {selector: 'link[rel="stylesheet"]', attr: 'href'}, |
| 55 | + {selector: 'script', attr: 'src'} |
| 56 | + ], |
| 57 | + directories: [ |
| 58 | + {directory: 'img', extensions: ['.jpg', '.png']}, |
| 59 | + {directory: 'js', extensions: ['.js']}, |
| 60 | + {directory: 'css', extensions: ['.css']}, |
| 61 | + {directory: 'fonts', extensions: ['.ttf', '.woff', '.eot', '.svg']} |
| 62 | + ] |
| 63 | +}, function (error, result){ |
| 64 | + console.log(result); |
| 65 | +}); |
| 66 | +``` |
