I have a list of around 300+ RSS feeds. They are all similarly structured and I would like to have them parsed and put the meta data (date, title, image) into a database (MongoDB). I will also need basic statistics on the parsing such as [time it took to download] and [time it took to parse], just so we can monitor the feeds to see if any are taking too long, or fail. If an error occurs while parsing, you will store a simple error message in the feeds database along with the meta data. I have already designed the db schemas, so this should all be fairly straight forward :) I will be happy to work with you to make sure everything goes smoothly, and answer any questions you may have. I am only interested in hiring an individual, NOT a development company. Depending on the quality of your work and communication skills, this will likely open up to more contracts in the near future. Thank you!

Hello! I like interesting tasks using python. So sad that here small amount of it. :) So... Are the RSS has the same structure? Can you show examples what you want to parse? I.e. if I need to develop 300 different parser conditions - it is a bad way. :) Anyway, let's do the business!

Hi, Are there 3 pieces of meta data (date, title, image)? I can make a demo for you if you give me some feeds and your mongoDB structure before you choose me. Thank you for reading.

I love to code in Python and I'm experienced in writing semilarge scripts in it. With the usage of the Python standard library it shouldn't be too difficult to build the required functionality.
