Bidding Time:
16/08/2007 23:19 - 23/08/2007 23:19
Budget:
Maximum $50
Status:
Closed

Job Type:
Python, MS SQL
Description:



Summary
Ruby or Python script for Win32 that will convert table data in html source
files into a database
consumable file format (XML). Creating a relational structure to the data is
also welcome.


Steps
1) write a html file parser (prefer Python or ruby code) that grab all the
relevant table data from a
set of html files. Iterate this step thru a series of sequentially numbered
files.

2) after grabbing all the table data in a file, the program will analyze
certain html tables. The table
can be populated in several variations, so code should be intelligent to
recognize the various table
structure (not that difficult since there are just a couple of slight
variations).

3) after parsing the table, turn the relevant element data into an XML txt file
(or some other format
that can be easily imported into a MySQL database)

(optional)
4) Create a relational structure to the data in the MySQL database.

Speed or efficiency not a priority. This is basically a one-time data port.


Skill Requirements
Ruby or Python (prefer Ruby). Simple MySQL database knowledge would help (how
to import xml or other
data into database).
