What is il_supermarket_scarper?

There are alot of projects in github trying to scrape the supermarket data, most of them are not stable or wasn't updated for a while, it's about time there will be one codebase that does the work completely.

You only need to run the following code to get all the data currently shared by the supermarkets.

from il_supermarket_scarper import MainScrapperRunner

scraper = MainScrapperRunner()
scraper.run()

Please notice! since new files are constantly uploaded by the supermarket to their site, you will only get the current snapshot. In order to keep geting data, you will need to run this code more the one time to get the newly uploaded files.

Quick start

il_supermarket_scarper can be installed using pip:

python3 -m pip install -U il-supermarket-scraper

If you want to run the latest version of the code, you can install from the repo directly:

python3 -m pip install -U git+https://github.com/erlichsefi/israeli-supermarket-scarpers.git
# or if you don't have 'git' installed
python3 -m pip install -U https://github.com/erlichsefi/israeli-supermarket-scarpers/master

Running Docker

The docker is designed to run the scaper every 6 hours, (you change the cron expression if you would like, checkout the file 'crontab'), in every itreation the scraper will collect the files avaliabe to download and check if the file alreay exists before fetching it, either by scaning the dump folder, or checking the mongo.

docker-compose up -d

or if you want to use the existing image from docker hub:

docker pull erlichsefi/israeli-supermarket-scarpers:latest
