Track your favorite ice cream using Scrapy and Django
This is a project I built as part of my software development capstone course at Minneapolis Technical and Community College. My goals for the project were to explore Scrapy, Django and Postgres.
- Scrape the flavors of ice cream available at a local ice cream shop using Scrapy
- Create a web app using Django that allows users to:
- choose their favorite flavors
- be notified by email when their favorites are available
- see the last time a flavor was available
- write reviews of flavors
- get flavor recomendations
- Python
- Django
- Scrapy
- Postgres
- From the scoopscraper directory run
$ scrapy crawl izzy_spider
to populate the database - From the my_scoop directory run
$ python manage.py runserver
