    Hey guys,

    We are scraping a website and thus we have bought a script. This script works well but now we need some improvements. We are scraping music datas and until now we have only scrapped "Albums" now we need the "Songs" to be scrapped as well.

    - We have ~ 5000 songs to scrape (you don't have to scrape all of them, we can launch the script ourselves)

    - Each song is related to :
    • One or many movie(s)
    • One or many album(s)
    • One or many people (singer / guitar...)

    Movies / Albums / People have already been scraped you just have to complete the relation with the song

    We'll provide you our script (the one which scrapes the albums) you can just follow/adapt it for the songs. We'll also provide you a dump of our database and thus you'll be able to find any informations needed.

    The website we are scraping is built like a database so it's pretty easy to extract datas.

    Skills:
    - PHP (cURL / the script is also using simpleHTMLdom)
    - XML
    - SQL (basic knowledge)

    Please send me your quotes via PM, I can give you more details too.

    Thank you,

    We are not scrapping the song themselves but only some informations.... We are also talking about a website providing an API, but still they didn't add what we are looking for

    In talk with DocZ80 & zappak.
