Bidding Time:

Budget:
$20-100
Status:
 Closed


Job Type:
PHP, Perl/CGI, C/C++, Visual Basic, Linux
Description:

I need a high perfomance system for taking screen shots of rendered web pages.
The screen shots must then be turned into jpeg or gif thumbnail images.
Operating System: Red Hat Linux ES.
The system must do the following:
* use a browser component to render the page (e.g., Gecko, FireFox etc)
* capture the body onLoad event and take a copy of the fully rendered page
* prevent Javascript, pop-up windows obscuring the image of the web page
* reduce the size of the image to a 'thumbnail' while maintaining reasonable
quality
* enable screenshots to be taken in parallel/asynchronously
* the minimum throughput required is 10 screen shots per second
* run on Linux in a small memory footprint - less than 30Meg of RAM at maximum
throughput
* must be driven from the command-line in batch mode (e.g., perl
screen-shooter.pl -size 400x140 list-of-urls.txt
Skills required:
Gecko, FireFox, XUL, Perl, GD, RedHat Linux, C, Javascript, HTML, webthumb, rpm,
ppm tools, Image Magick
Deliverables:
* Ideally a perl script that given a list of URLs and IDs produces a directory
full of thumbnail images
* Benchmarks of screenshooter working at over 10 screenshots per second
