I did similar projects in the past (in php long time ago with curl and tidy, now in python with bs4 or selenium). To avoid bot detection, you can use the tor network, detect captcha request, and simply reconnect tor to get a different IP. Of course, you still need to put random sleeps here and there. Also, you need to be prepared to update or rewrite your code any time the website changes. Nice video!
"Gathering" data from other people is one of the holy grails of programming. OpenAI is the epitome of this aren't they - Gathered data from all of the internet, regurgitated it with "AI magic" and sell it back to consumers as their own.

Great video! Thank you for talking about web scraping as an IT subset. What most people don't know is that it's extremely hard to build your career around it. I have been running my own web scraping software house for several years now and getting clients is more difficult than if you build apps, create websites, or do virtually anything else. People and companies simply don't have enough awareness what access to real time data can do for their businesses. Creating this awareness is actually the biggest part of my job. Writing code is just a formality afterwards.
Wouldn’t it be better to build tools that solves specific problems more than trying to convince people they need tools they don’t know about? For example I pay more than I want in my business to access a tool that does a small part of a problem I’m trying to fix. I found another tool that fixes the whole problem and I’m happy to spend $30 a month to solve that problem.
Just an anecdote, but when I first got into a data role I built a competitor price web scraper for my company. At the time it was supposed to be a show and tell for my boss in case python work came up in the future. It worked well enough for the business to utilize for beating the comp to vendors on price. We could keep tabs on them at a quick enough pace to adjust quotes and win. Didn't always work out but being able to say a python project netted three extra contracts is really cool

Tim, your videos look very professional. I see the gear/hardware you use. May I ask what software you use to record your screen and include a picture-in-picture of yourself? I did not see this info anywhere. Thanks in advance!
appreciated brother. I was actually building something very similar but yours is definitely better build. Do you recommend against doing this in Javascript ?
Great video ❤ one thing I noticed that might be helpful on your code is comments when you’re walking through what each part does. That way anyone who uses it from your GitHub doesn’t have to reference your video each time to hear what it does. Just a small detail I noticed. Otherwise, fantastic idea and project!
Just wondering haven't played with the program yet. But does the program also record prices differences if items have multiple versions example Red rain coat vs the same rain coat but it's Blue and cost $1 more.
Just watched this vid about web scraping and got hit with a million-dollar project idea! Thinking of using Proxy-Store's proxies for it. Anyone else got big plans in the works?
Isn't Web Scrapping Illegal? Some time ago I had the idea to do a project just like this one and I ended up giving it up because I thought I was illegal. I read it on the website's terms and conditions.
I am planning on working on something like this, but I am from africa and i dont have too much knowledge of these GDPR laws and so on, could you make a video on that please?
Who is buying scraped data - companies would just build it ? or is the value proposition any community that wants/needs to know if data has changed and building some kind of tool to do that?
The idea is cool(the frontend part) except the "pay us to run your code and provide you the data data your code got" part, but what if you would want to scrape like 100k distinct items? The frontend will become just a long scrollbar.
Thanks for this video. How did you bypass Playwright default timeout? It sees that Playwright has a default timeout of 3000ms regardless of setting await in line 106 to 60000 or even Wait=commit

I did something like this for a company I worked for. Setting up slowly changing dimensions tables in python is p hard when there aren’t primary keys for the data you’ve scraped.
@@TannerBarcelosyou are scraping tons of data? Why would you need primary keys? Just collect the data you want, pass it into a pandas dataframe and give it whatever header names (keys) that you want
Clowns like you have said the same thing for years, and still remain employees. If you think one man can take the whole pie, you're very, very mistaken.
Please can anyone give a RESOURCE for data analyst who want to be able to code things like this. I honestly just need like a roadmap to understand how to even get to this level
I want to create a search algorithm that can find files that contains a particular word or sentence and open it using python. I save passwords and other things to remind me using note pad but I want a way of typing a word or sentence or part of a sentence and have the document open and the word highlighted.
Funny enough I used PyQt5 to build a web scraper, I can scrape Amazon without getting block... But with this new information I can extend my web scraper a lot further to make a more complex project. Thank You Very Much Tim...
selenium no but there are other options, but it's pointless with the amount of resources that will consume. Personally I use a separate server for data scraping
Hey i watched some of your videos and i like what you do here ... i was thinking may be if you could do a tutorial on how to Develop an API with Python or JavaScript
The biggest question is where to sell how to build trust I already made few tools and selling them but i have no idea how to sell web scraping data or tools Also thanks ❤ that's a good starting point Edit: 9:02 after seeing this i remember i made something similar but it scraps anime each one with it episodes and each episode with stream url and title desc... and then display and stream anime with electron ui but i never finished it cuz i have no idea how to make ui with js
You'd have to know what the general price of a product is before hand, then have some logic like "if below X percent from the lowest range" then consider it a price error. So if you want to do this for all products? Then you'll need a really large database to do this. If you are just looking for price errors on select products, then it's much more doable.
Always love seeing your videos really helped me when I was starting out and still a great source for learning new things here and there. Also I know your go to tends to be python and that you have done content with SQL and APIs with Python but in terms of teaching new programmers especially those that come to work on my team the hardest concept to teach is just the overarching idea of how The web in my case that's usually an Angular Project with TS interacts with API (Endpoints etc) and how that API links to our SQL database etc basically just teaching how it all connects from an oversight perspective. I think a video like that would be helpful to newcomers obviously the individual pieces are necessary to know but how they work together is important to ^_^ Regardless Keep up the Great vids :)

A wonderful video that we've used as a reference for our recent additions. Your sharing is highly appreciated!
I love this dude deeply this was the reason I started learning code❤ now some one is give me a repo
Wouldn’t it be illegal to do if the terms and conditions of the website tells you not to scrape it?
I can build a web scraper in Python selenium that spits data into a csv. But where could I go to learn to do something like this?
What is the the host in auth.json?
if it is a million dollar idea then why you don't do this and show us your success...who are you fooling it's just an ad of bright data
Calm down bruh
Clowns like you have said the same thing for years, and still remain employees. If you think one man can take the whole pie, you're very, very mistaken.
Bahagaaaa😢😢😢
😂😂😂😂😂oh ms goshhh
Bright data is making millions
Who is down to port this with me into NextJS/tRPC/Prisma? Great Video Tim as always! Give me some motivation to start working on a scrapper!
Thanks Tim. Any plan for a detailed tutorial?
Hello Tim, i'v got problem mostly with style. Css even with the guide of chat gpt, advise me please
Can this be done on Pycharm IDE?
Can we run whole project without brightdata functionality for website which do not blocks or medium level security in it?
Legend!
I need to do it with more than 5000+ products and also need description and price and etc how can I do it
Use ur 🧠
Please can anyone give a RESOURCE for data analyst who want to be able to code things like this. I honestly just need like a roadmap to understand how to even get to this level
I am so down to collaborate!
Just saw your message I'm down to collaborate . Just getting started in this field need some tips on where to go@@MeghModhaa
I want to create a search algorithm that can find files that contains a particular word or sentence and open it using python. I save passwords and other things to remind me using note pad but I want a way of typing a word or sentence or part of a sentence and have the document open and the word highlighted.
Funny enough I used PyQt5 to build a web scraper, I can scrape Amazon without getting block... But with this new information I can extend my web scraper a lot further to make a more complex project. Thank You Very Much Tim...
Thank you
Hello Tim would like to ask you question can selenium work on mobile in other word can you make script with selenium work with mobile browser
selenium no but there are other options, but it's pointless with the amount of resources that will consume. Personally I use a separate server for data scraping
Hey i watched some of your videos and i like what you do here ... i was thinking may be if you could do a tutorial on how to Develop an API with Python or JavaScript
The biggest question is where to sell how to build trust
I already made few tools and selling them but i have no idea how to sell web scraping data or tools
Also thanks ❤ that's a good starting point
Edit: 9:02 after seeing this i remember i made something similar but it scraps anime each one with it episodes and each episode with stream url and title desc... and then display and stream anime with electron ui but i never finished it cuz i have no idea how to make ui with js
can you do a scraper for movies?
It's a year now, How did it go Tim
Would this work on linux?
Can webscraping be used to track price errors from store websites like home depot best buy wlamart etc?
yes it can be used and many other applications
You'd have to know what the general price of a product is before hand, then have some logic like "if below X percent from the lowest range" then consider it a price error. So if you want to do this for all products? Then you'll need a really large database to do this. If you are just looking for price errors on select products, then it's much more doable.
instead of using any third party library can we integrate scrapy in it
Can u use no code like bubble for this
Mr Tim is automation with java a a good thing ?
wich better java or python for automation
Always love seeing your videos really helped me when I was starting out and still a great source for learning new things here and there.
Also I know your go to tends to be python and that you have done content with SQL and APIs with Python but in terms of teaching new programmers especially those that come to work on my team the hardest concept to teach is just the overarching idea of how The web in my case that's usually an Angular Project with TS interacts with API (Endpoints etc) and how that API links to our SQL database etc basically just teaching how it all connects from an oversight perspective. I think a video like that would be helpful to newcomers obviously the individual pieces are necessary to know but how they work together is important to ^_^
Regardless Keep up the Great vids :)
can i change it to amazon eg?
