Description
Experience Level: Intermediate
Essentially we need a scrapper to run through all of the postcode locations populate our database with all the required fields. Later the script you have built will run and get the full address.
1. Can you point me to the postcode listings directory?
2. Will you require the ability to select postcodes you wish to scrape?
3. Will this run as one scraper running on one server with one optional static proxy?
4. Will the columns to populate be the same as already in your property database?
5. Will the scraper need to be able to continue where it last left off or does it need to start from the beginning everytime?
6. Do you care about recording failed scrapes?
1. https://www.zoopla.co.uk/for-sale/property/lu7/
2. We have a database containing all of the outcodes, each row will have two columns. "last_synced" and "page_stopped"
- Last synced : is when the scrapper finished the scrapping fully
- Page stopped : is a field used for incase the scrapper cuts of, this allows it to resume from where it last left.
We will have to structure this a bit better as essentially we dont want to scrape properties that we already have in our system. Open to recommendations
3. Multiple servers all using proxy
4. Yes, the columns to be populated are in the properties table
5. Yes, see point 3.
6. You need to log all successfully scrapes and all failed scrapes. We will build a dashboard to be better understand how the scrappers are working later on.
1. Scrapes the zoopla site
- Each scraper retrieves a list of outcodes which will be retrieved from the database
- Scrapers can be added on an adhoc basis, processing whichever outcodes are not currently being processed
- Scrapers should be able to pick up from a left off position
- Any scraper can use a a proxy - there will not be a pool or proxies or rotating proxies
- A failures need to be logged per scraper, la
