If I need to scroll through, say 10 LinkedIn profile URLs, the crawler after successfully crawling through the 10 URL links provided into the rootProfiles, keep on executing. It keeps on returning the logger as:

2020-05-15T19:53:36.399Z info: starting scraping: undefined show urls undefined 2020-05-15T19:53:36.401Z error: error on crawling profile: undefined TypeError: Cannot read property 'indexOf' of undefined 2020-05-15T19:53:37.400Z info: starting scraping: undefined show urls undefined 2020-05-15T19:53:37.401Z error: error on crawling profile: undefined TypeError: Cannot read property 'indexOf' of undefined 2020-05-15T19:53:38.400Z info: starting scraping: undefined show urls undefined
again and again even after profiles has been saved.

Is there any mechanism to stop the script automatically after the number of profile matching and fetching has been done?

Because this infinite crawling might consume up the resource much more than required.

Yes, you could implement code on crawler.js to check if it has more profiles to crawl

PR is welcomed, thanks
