API Data Mining Scraping PHP JSON Get Information Tutorial

Learn to mine and scrape data from APIs using PHP. A developer can use the file_get_contents() function or cURL functions to access data on external servers for use in their applications. A Cron Job can then be used to execute the data mining script automatically at any interval that the developer sets. The script can be written to insert or update data in a database for retrieval later.

Yop, that's how simple it is to explain and implement it, I'm in charge of a silver jewelry ecommerce mini site and this will be extremely useful to me, thanks. A complementary Cron job basic tutorial would be amazing to set up this greatly needed automated functionality. Kudos.

I have to let you know that this is the VERY BEST example of scraping data from an API that I have ever seen, and I have been a developer for over 8 years !!! Thank you & Kudos sir :)

Maybe next, you can give us a tutorial on setting up a basic cron job ;) Begging( PLEASE )

Sorry to interrupt, I want to ask if there is a way to use PHP to create a time based scripts to fire off the request without using cron job?
