Amazon Product Scraper: 2021
Description
A command-line tool for scraping Amazon product data to CSV or JSON format(s).
Requirements
- Python 3
- pip3
Installation
Using git clone (you'll need git installed for this):
git clone https://github.com/scrapewalrus/amazon-scraper-python-2021
Or download and extract the zip file of the project manually
You'll also need to install requirements for the project to run. Locate amazon-product-scraper folder via terminal and type pip install -r requirements.txt:
Usage
To launch the Amazon scraper locate the amazon-product-scraper folder via terminal and type python amazon_scraper.py -k "your keyword". This will start the program.
NOTE: you must declare either -k or --keyword before entering your keyword. It's a required argument.
Example:
amazon_scraper.py - the name of a scraper file.
-k or --keyword - required argument to pass before entering your keyword.
-p or --proxies - optional argument to enable proxies. To avoid getting blocked I highly recommend using proxies. I'm using Residential Proxies from Oxylabs. For highest success rate, I suggest Residential Proxies over Datacenter as they're almost impossible to detect and have the smallest footprint. If you decide to use different proxy provider services keep in mind that you'll have to make some minor adjustments in get-proxies.py file.
-j or --json - optional argument for storing extracted data in .json format. Default output format is .csv.
