This webservice will help scrape data out of chart(s) presented on any given website. (At this moment, I only support scrape from HighCharts and AmCharts. Other libraries, maybe next time).
NOTE: uses gunicorn (https://docs.gunicorn.org/en/stable/index.html) which is WSGI HTTP server for *nix
systems. On windows, you might want to swap gunicorn with uWSGI or other alternatives.
- REST services for extracting data via URL.
- Simpler to get started.
- Clone this repo > `cd chart_data_extractor.
pip install -r requirements.txt
in cenv of your choice (py=3)
gunicorn -b localhost:8000 scraper_service:app --threads 3 --reload
- To extract data from a (supported)chart, try this:
http://localhost:8000/v1/chartDataExtractor?targetUrl=http://www.google.com
