About

This is a simple script to scrape data from the official ecommerce website of Datablitz, a one stop shop for games and multimedia here in the Philippines, dump it into json format and put it in a simple Flask API. This is written in Python using the following libraries:

• beautifulSoup4 == 4.12.0
• Flask == 2.2.3
• numpy == 1.24.2
• pandas == 1.5.3
• requests == 2.28.2
• tqdm == 4.65.0

Dataset

The data that I've extracted at the moment contains five features:

{
"product_name": "NSW POKEMON LEGENDS ARCEUS (MDE)",
"price": 2459,
"availability": "In stock",
"region": "MDE",
"product_category": "Game"
}
