To run the scraper

bundle exec ruby scraper.rb

Set MORPH_AUSTRALIAN_PROXY to the url for an Australian proxy

Error handling

The scraper will * warn if it was unable to extract the council reference and skip to the next page * warn if it was unable to extract the address from the details page and skip to the next entry on the same page * stop retrieving pages if no records where found or no next page link is present * Return a non-zero status at the end of run if any warnings occurred during the run so morph can alert the scaper owner
