Terminating scripting when it reaches the end of specified date

[joemkwon]

Is there an easy way for the scripting process to self-terminate when it reaches the end of the publish/created date that's specified in the code? @fhamborg I'm confused about what's going on right now, because it seems to run indeterminately long. I notice sometimes when the # of files scraped doesn't increase very quickly after a long time, that maybe it's sort of idling and waiting to see if there are new articles in the date range being uploaded; is this the case?
