Data Scraping Script For Soccer Leagues & Fixtures

£20-250 GBP

In Progress
Posted over 5 years ago

£20-250 GBP

Paid on delivery
Need a nice and simple data scraping script which will be run weekly (no cron job, shared hosting) to gather league table data of soccer leagues such as La Liga, Serie A etc. 1 - The scraper script will need to be easy to run and to visit set webpages to gather updated league-table data and scrape to an XML file, strip classes etc and output in a table format. Each league table will be echoable from the XML as <LALIGA> </LALIGA> etc. 2 - The scraper will also need to visit selected pages to scrape the results of the past 5 matches and the list of the next 5 matches to a file for each team in these leagues, such as FC Barcelona, scraping and storing as <BARCELONA> in an XML file called "[login to view URL]". The data will be stripped from a table on a webpage into a "<![CDATA[" style html entry in the XML. Again this does not need updated live and can be run manually by myself once a week to keep server load low. 3 - A fail safe system if the "origin site" is broken/down to not scrape bad data and kill the script to not ruin the last good XML file. Experience with scraping, php and XML required - shared hosting so no CPanel available. Thanks!

I specialize in web scraping jobs like this one. You can see on my profile that I have completed many similar jobs. Don't make the mistake of hiring an amateur, who doesn't have the skill set to properly complete this task and will only waste your time. Hire me, a professional with a rock solid reputation and over 8 years of experience specifically in writing scraping code like this. I know what I can and cannot do, and I won't waste your time by saying I can do something that I can't. because I exclusively write scraping code I know what to expect and I will always live up to what I tell you, and will also deliver a higher quality final product than my competitors. Regards
