About the project

Simple data scraper where we enter 2 links of two different websites and product code, name and price is added to a database available for viewing and future scraping. Optional feature showing price difference comparison. .

Looking for a few simple pages to control the data.

First Page - View/Edit/Print/Export/Search - Table View of all Products Second - Submit New Comparison Third - Individual Product Page

While the pages can be simple, div tags would be appreciated to be able to further implement into a more user friendly looking page. Or to implement into a wordpress cms.

    I work with large volumes of data and can produce this table using python or ruby and can write to any format e.g. JSON, XML, CSV and then import them into any database.

    • Page to list similar products and price comparison using DIV

    • Search capability on the page to find product of interest

    Please let me know what is the best time to call you to align expectations.

    Hi Kingsley,

    Can you please send the website urls that you want to scrap? That will give more information on how long it will take to finish the job.

    Best

      Hi mate. The two websites I'm interested in are altronics.com.au and jaycar.com.au. you'll notice that while the products are similar they aren't always the same so manual input to join products will be necessary. I found obtaining product code, title and price this morning was simple enough using scrapy shell but writing a spider with output was beyondy skill level.
