Run Your Web Scraper Automatically Once a DAY

In this video i'll show you one way of running your web scrapers automatically in the cloud, using cronjobs. we utilise a linux vm from Digital Ocean and download and run our code at a set interval. I cover creating a droplet, downloading code from git and isntalling requirements.

Oh man, this was a life saver. I really enjoy your series, everytime I need to scrape something I know you must have done something similar!

Thank you! Deployment is my biggest obstacle now but videos like this really help. You covered ssh, deployment and cron jobs in less 14 minutes - incredible!

I loved all of this. I even learned a bit about Digital Ocean that was wayyy better than most tutorials out there. Thank you so much

Hi sir. I have an app scraper. My app scrapes news site and extract urls, writes to .txt file. I deployed my app to Heroku. But Heroku doesn't have file system and doesn't update .txt file. Can you show methods connect databases and Heroku? For exmple external clouds or Postgres.

I'm a little bit new to Linux commands, but I wasn't getting the cron.log file to show up in my Home directory. I ended up having to change the permissions of my Home directory, and then it worked. I was using an Ubuntu VM instance on GCP, though. Not sure if that makes a difference from Digital Ocean.
