"""Knowledge base reader.
Crawls and reads articles from a knowledge base/help center with Playwright.
Tested on Zendesk and Intercom CMS, may work on others.
Can be run in headless mode but it may be blocked by Cloudflare. Run it headed to be safe.
Times out occasionally, just increase the default time out if it does.
Requires the `playwright` package.
Args:
root_url (string): the base url of the knowledge base, with no trailing slash
e.g. 'https://support.intercom.com'
link_selectors (list): list of css selectors to find links to articles while crawling
e.g. ['.article-list a', '.article-list a']
article_path (string): the url path of articles on this domain so the crawler knows when to stop
e.g. '/articles'
title_selector (string): css selector to find the title of the article
e.g. '.article-title'
subtitle_selector (string): css selector to find the subtitle/description of the article
e.g. '.article-subtitle'
body_selector (string): css selector to find the body of the article
e.g. '.article-body'
