About this role
Python, Data Processing, Web Scraping, Web Crawling, Scrapy, Data Extraction, Documentation, Data Analysis, Data Collection, Data Management · My PC runs on Windows and I need someone to jump onto it via AnyDesk and get Scrapy fully installed, configured and tested right away. The goal is to create a working environment that can pull mobile-phone numbers from several European escort sites.
Here is what has to happen: • Install Python (latest stable), pip and Scrapy, making sure all path variables work. • Add the extra libraries a phone-number crawler usually needs (regex, requests, lxml, fake-user-agent or similar). • Demonstrate the install by building a quick sample spider that visits one target site I supply, respects robots.txt settings, rotates user agents/proxies, and exports the scraped numbers to CSV. • Show me, step-by-step, how to run, pause and tweak the spider so I can extend it myself later. A short text file with the key commands is enough for documentation.
Speed is important—ASAP completion. I already have ChatGPT and Claude accounts; feel free to leverage them for code snippets while you screen-share, but everything must be open-source and reside locally when we finish.
