Description

EbayCrawler is a crawler that parses eBay and writes the data in a file. This project is just an experiment and should better not be used in a real situation. eBay has a public API to use instead (see https://developer.ebay.com/api-docs/developer/static/developer-landing.html) and this project is made to learn such libraries as aiohttp or bs4 and to practice my software developing skills.

Installation

pip install ebaycrawler

Usage

ebaycrawler [-h] --urls URLS [URLS ...] --mode {list} [--file-path [FILE_PATH]]

--urls or -u - a required argument that represents the urls that have to be parsed, e.g.

--urls https://www.ebay.ca/b/Cars-Trucks/6001/bn_1865117 https://www.ebay.ca/b/adidas/bn_21818843

--mode or -m - a required argument that represents the mode in which the provided urls should be parsed e.g.

--mode=list

or

-m=card

--file-path or -fp - an optional argument that represents the path where the table with parsed items should be saved (./saved_documents/<current_datetime> by default) e.g.
