Hi, Is there a way to prevent crawling domains if a URL re-directs to a different URL? For me right now, if it hits a URL that redirects to a different domain it proceeds to crawl that domain as well, even using a strategy of enqueueing links. For example, www.somelink.com/github redirects to their github profile, which then leads to crawling every URL on page, which leads to endless crawling of GitHub. My code: async def main() -> None:
crawler = PlaywrightCrawler()
urls_found = []
# Define a request handler and attach it to the crawler using the decorator.
@crawler.router.default_handler
async def request_handler(context: PlaywrightCrawlingContext) -> None:
# See BeautifulSoup documentation for API docs.
url = context.request.url
context.log.info(f"On URL: {url}")
urls_found.append(url)
await context.enqueue_links(strategy=EnqueueStrategy.SAME_ORIGIN)
await crawler.run(["some url here"])
print(f"Found {len(urls_found)} URLs")Thanks in advance |

I made a workaround via putting enqueue links in a conditional block so that it will only start crawling if the domain is the same. |

Hello @jkumz, I added a test that should reproduce the bug that you're reporting, but it is passing without any changes to the code - #873. Could you share the URL that triggers the behavior that you're observing? |

Still redirects to URLs outside of original domain, but doesn't start crawling any URLs under different domains which is sufficient.
