Description: |
I need a PHP program that quickly grabs 100.000+ products from Amazon using the Amazon Web Services (AWS) API. This information will then be stored in a MySQL database on a Linux platform. Here is a list of useful URLs: AWS API: http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html/ref=sws_aws_/002-8182866-8964820?node=34353 61 BrowseNodes.com: http://www.browsenodes.com/ PHP Curl Functions: http://us2.php.net/curl This program should import products from Amazon.com and store the product information in a MySQL database. The program should import product information as quickly as possible, with a minimum of 1000 products imported per hour. The program should also avoid duplicating product information in the database, even if run multiple times. The program should probably generate this information using the Amazon.com browse node information at http://www.browsenodes.com - although I am not set on this if you have a better solution. I will not be providing a list of ISBN numbers or UPC codes to start from. I will provide a list of popular keyword searches to use, but your database should not be based entirely on this list. Using Amazon.com's browse nodes will enable you to grab products from Amazon.com's "New Releases" and "Top Sellers" categories. Your program should make sure to get both Amazon's most popular products and products from our list of popular keyword searches. For each product, you will need to assign a unique product id. You will also need to store the following information in the database: product name description image url product category price brand (brand/manufacturer) upc product_type (book/music/video/other) the editorial review for each product (when it exists) the keywords returned by Amazon.com additional info needed for books/music/video: books: isbn, format(paperback/hardcover/audiobook/ebook), author, publisher music: artist,format(cd/tape,vinyl/mp3/itunes/ogg/wma),release_date, track titles for each cd video: format(dvd/vhs),director,release_date,starring,rating(G/PG/PG-13/R/NR) The stuff we don't want to store is: - accessories - shopping cart info - customer info - customer reviews - transaction details You will be responsible for providing a MySQL database schema, as well as program files needed to populate the database. Here is a list of useful URLs: AWS API: http://www.amazon.com/gp/browse.html/ref=sws_aws_/002-8182866-8964820?node=34353 61 BrowseNodes.com: http://www.browsenodes.com/ PHP Curl Functions: http://us2.php.net/curl You haven't to grab ALL 100.000+ products when deliverin - just prove the script worksòûñÿ÷è.
