Feina Activa (Servei d'Ocupació de Catalunya) CLI Job Scraper

This is a CLI based application made to parse jobs from the official webpage of Generalitat de Catalunya.

Prerequisites

• Having the requirements installed (Selenium and BeautifulSoup).
• Having the webdriver downloaded and/or set to PATH, for the specific navigator. In my case I set it to Chrome.

Arguments

The command line currently takes up to 4 arguments, two of them being mandatory (output_path and results), and, at least, one of the remaining, topic and province.

• output_path: Absolute (preferably) path to stores JSON outputs.
• results: Integer for the number of results. Should be a divisor of 20 (each web updates increases the amount of jobs shown by 20).
• topic: Keyword/s used to search for specific words. If there is more than one, they should be space-separated and in quotes.
• province: Can be none, or one of the four catalan provinces (Barcelona, Girona, Tarragona, Lleida).

Example

python .\main.py C:\feina_activa_parser\searchs --province barcelona --results 80

Command line output:

JSON file:

Results are indexed, starting from 0 as usual (80, in this example).
