Job Type:

Description:



We'd like to automate the import of DVD data into our database from partner
sites. This data includes title, stars, box art photo link, dvd features,
runtime, date released etc.
We'd like to scan DVD UPC's and have that data passed to a vendor site via a URL
to find the product. This is supported by the partner site (eg.
http://elegantangelstore.com/?upc=618582608615).*contains adult content*
If that product is found, we'd like the the path (with our affiliate code) to be
written to our database as well as the dvd information found there.
----So site #1 data to be scraped based on UPC scan:
Title
Product Photo
Affiliate link (http://store.mallcom.com/?a=ouraffiliatename&upc=BAR CODE #)
Price/format
Format (ie DVD)
Release Date
Cast/Stars
Studio Name
Runtime
To get other dvd info that is not found on site #1 we'd like the title to be
used to search site #2 and scrape the information and saved to our database.
(ie. http://www.gamelink.com/display_product.jhtml?id=280139&lid=listing)
----So site #2 data to be scraped based on title search from site #2:
Product ID
DVD Features
Price/format
Format (DVD, PayPerView, VideoOnDemand...)
DVD Features
Director
We will also need a regular feed setup to grab a zip file and import the data
into our database from site #3. See project clarification board for format
specifications. The matching Video on Demand title will be auto-populated when
searching/scraping sites #1 & #2.

If the UPC scanned does not give a result from site #1, we'd like the interface
to provide entering the title that will search site #2 and the data from site
#2.
---So if no UPC match, scrape of site #2 based on manual entry of a title
includes:
Title
Product ID
DVD Features
Price/format
Format (DVD, PPV, VOD, DIVX...)
DVD Features
Director
Cast/Stars
Runtime
Studio Name
Release Date
If no match is found on either site by UPC scanning or manual title entry, we'd
like an option to either enter the data manually or skip and continue scanning.
This solution can be an online or client-based application. There must be a
configuration setting for affiliate codes/paths that are written to the db,
paths for photos being written, etc. Offline app. (Intel/PC) must be fault
proof, meaning when end of scanning is completed and an upload of the data is
performed, it can't choke on one record or entry being mal-formed. (we are not
committed to any specific solution-so just an example).
