I also did something similar for my spring project. The idea was to buy a used car and I was frustrated with the BS the listing sites claimed as fair price etc..

I went the browser extension route and used grease monkey to inject custom JavaScript. I patched the window.fetch and because it was a react page it did most of the work for me providing me with a slightly convolute JSON doc everytime I scrolled. Getting the data extracted was only a question of getting a flask API with correct CORS settings running.

Thanks for posting using a local proxy for even more control could be helpful in the future.

Apparently there is no web extension API to inspect the body of a fetch response and you have to override window.fetch

Seems like an omission in the spec.

If we're talking about chrome extension, yes.

But firefox extension expose API to inspect the response stream.
