Expected duration: 3 - 4 weeks We are looking for tenders to provide us with an application that will be a standalone application that will be able to scrape data from a website, and provide a url that gives us some xml data as output.
The application will allow us to have multiple starting url's, each giving a unique output each time.
I can provide more detail to the candidate that can demonstrate a good working knowledge of not only creating the application but also in the ability to successfully scrape data.
the application will ideally have a backend where we can specify the starting url for each client, and perhaps a clients id number.
The data needs to be updated daily.
and the application will have a database to store the starting url's and client id's and output url for the data.
Please tell us the language of choice for building the application, and server requirements to host it. (we will host) in your cover letter.
